Hey, I had the NEX 6 and the Panny G3. Both pretty excellent cameras. I bought the X10 last week on Dixeyk's recommendation (he's the little red devil standing on my shoulder and making me buy camera stuff) and I love it. The AF is pretty acceptable, too. Let's say it's the slowest AF I can be decently happy with.
@Kevin : now that you give me the detail yes I remember upgrading my 7 to that version... but after trying the X100 for a day I'm all ready to love NEX af, I swear ;-) !
I think the X10 (for me) coexists well with the NEX because they fill really different niches. The X10 gives me a freedom and flexibility that the NEX doesn't because I'm all manual focus. I think they are complimentary systems for me. You'll notice I am not saying I told you so. BUT...I was wondering if the Fuji AF would make you happy. Maybe the X100s fixes the shortcomings of the X100 for you. I don't know much about it other than reading that it is supposed to be fast.
Now, I am curious when and If a NEX 8 appears if that will address some of these issues as well. I mean the Sony a57 supposedly has very fast AF so clearly Sony CAN make a fast AF camera. Would a NEX 8 that has AF like their Alpha bodies interest you? Then there is the rumored FF NEX.
