hey guys,
weird question.
there are 2 fuji x10 on ebay both sold a defective.
the first comes without battery and is unknown but has some defect.
the second one has a stuck zoom ring.
would it be wise to buy one for say 30€ and have it fixed.
especially the stuck ring , that has to be a mechanical problem and it should be easily fixable , right ?

30 is worth the try

Luckily mine is still working. They are pretty decent. The zoom ring has the on/off switch in it, meaning that to turn the camera on, you have to twist the zoom. I don't really know if that makes the repair more difficult, but getting it stuck on "full", then the camera is permanently on. Don't know more about those, but I thought sharing this might help you.

love that camera, apart from it being slow as fuck when shooting raw its an awesome, light and portable peace of gear

Just got one from woot refurb and its great other than the viewfinder is stuck at the far end of the focal range. Looking around the internet it seems like that's a fairly common problem so perhaps that is the problem with the first one?
>especially the stuck ring , that has to be a mechanical problem and it should be easily fixable , right ?
probably a sign it was dropped and has more wrong with it
