The overall appearance of the X100F is derived from the original X100 series. The appearance of the X100F is thus similar to that of the original model. Therefore, the design of the X100F half case is adjusted according to the original blueprint. The front of the X100F half case is a direct reference to the classic sensations of of the X100 series. We have a positive focus on the overall look and feel on the half case design. The raised hand pillow in front of the leather case is also tailor made to increase the stability of control and the sense of retro leather.
The location of each button of a well-designed camera is always well considered. This also applies for the leather half case design, from the shape and size of the thickness, have been repeatedly tested to achieve the best results. In particular, the hand pillow part is tested through 5 different materials. If it is too thick, it affects the smoothness of the leather. If it is too thin, it cannot maintain the stability of the control. The most natural placement position of the user’s finger is also considered with the inclination of the hand pillow. All of the above have been considered.
For the cashew-type buttons on both sides of the camera case, an ordinary curved button does not satisfy us. Slightly longer button which is shaped like a cashew shape creates a beautiful retro line.
We believe that the modification of curved lines can make a small part of the ordinary become extraordinary. A closer look at these parts will make it easier to see the effects brought out by this well considered design. I hope you will also like it.
