I have not tried the crop modes - something about it doesn't seem right about it to be honest, though I suppose I should see what it's like.
I also have small hands and the X100 fits like a glove. I'm finding the Q a bit more clunky and tedious to use in comparison, although that could simply be the fact that it's still a new camera to me. I sometimes have a difficult time turning the darn thing on, and the EVF leaves much to be desired. I am really liking the files, however. The DNG files are easy for my aging computer to process, which is a huge bonus.
