Fujifilm X100 for selfies?
The Fujifilm FinePix X100 has a rear LCD that is fixed to the body. Thus, the screen cannot be used to monitor the framing when taking selfies or during v-logging. The functions of the LCD are, hence, limited to checking the camera's menu settings and reviewing images.
In terms of size and resolution, the rear LCD of the Fujifilm X100 measures 2.8 inches and offers a resolution of 460,000 dots. The panel is not touch sensitive.

One convenient feature of the X100 is the presence of an on-board flash. While this built-in flash is not very powerful, it can at times be useful as a fill-in light to brighten deep shadow areas.
