- Activate Focus Peaking in the X100F's menu to highlight in-focus areas with a colored outline. This is especially helpful for precise focusing in portraits and bokeh shots.
- The X100F's electronic viewfinder (EVF) allows you to see a live histogram overlay, helping you balance your exposure before taking the shot. This feature is useful in all shooting scenarios.
- Switch to the Silent Shutter mode on the X100F for discreet shooting in quiet environments or when you don't want to disturb your subjects, perfect for street and portrait photography.
