Fujifilm X100T in 2022 - The camera that I always hated

[@impatrickt]

I think my favourite thing about the original., S, T, and F is the lens. the new V lens is too sharp wide open. there's a really nice softness wide open on the older models. and the T is the best bang for your buck with value/modern features.

[@CrisConstantin]

Now…I can agree☺️. I never cared about sharpness much, but having the limitation of one focal length for everything, really scared me, man. I feel released and fearless. It’s sharp enough for me and crazy small. The battery tho…😂

[@impatrickt]

@@CrisConstantin hmm I haven't had battery issues. will last me a day of walk around shooting. are you using a new battery?

[@CrisConstantin]

Nah, the oem one and a wassabi (old, as well). You have to send me yours, lol. Mine holds an hour🤣

[@Marathonianbull]

What I like the most of my X100T is its ability to guarantee great shots with perfect whites and colours in JPEG mode. I haven't used it often, but took it out yesterday and am really amazed once again!

[@EdRobles1]

Would love to see if you've done a video on settings, especially the focus moving on the pad

[@pnojazz]

I’ve had mine for 9 years. I’ve no plans to replace it. It’s only got 1200 shots on it. 😂

[@oscarmorillon7844]

I already have the F and the V but got the T a few days ago in like-new condition for $200. Crazy good deal I couldn’t pass. A video on your settings would be nice!

[@CrisConstantin]

Yeah, man. Awesome deal for and awesome camera. Settings video coming soon👍

[@themoolag]

What how did you get such a good deal?

[@TheGyroBarqusShow]

Couldn't find one for anywhere near $600 man, where did you get your camera?

[@Enrique-the-photographer]

Cris, Cris, Cris, you just couldn't help yourself, you had to start the video with a song, go ahead, convince me that you didn't have two or three glasses of Malbec before you started recording the video (LOL). If Fuji ever comes out with this camera but with a battery like the X-T4 and the ability to interchange lenses I would by it as soon as it became available, it would definitely work as an every day carry. Be well, stay safe and have a great weekend.

[@CrisConstantin]

None. And I can prove it. 😂 Don’t be a hater like I was. Cut off the Malbec for a couple weeks🤣 and buy one (older iterations). It might change your mind. I agree with the battery tho, but to keep the EDC form factor they had to keep it small. Now, new tech in battery development might give them the ability for the next one to keep the form factor small and cram more juice inside (see smartphones…). Will see, but it’s a beautiful capable toy, man.

[@Enrique-the-photographer]

@@CrisConstantin I agree with you, I’m sure that in the future new technology in battery development will take care of that issue, basically what I’m looking for is a small X-Pro3. BTW, I'm not cutting off the Malbec.

[@stephenyeates1666]

Fuji already did. It's called an X-E4!

[@dt9r]

I ve just sold mine with relief

[@29kan]

I love these cameras until the aperture blades stick.. the EVF also easily fails. Fujifilm repair customer service is absolutely horrible and could care less about repairing their failed products. They charge $700 to fix. I wouldn't waste my money again on this camera new or used unless you want a good looking paper weight. love and then hate it..

[@CrisConstantin]

Interesting input. I heard of these issues before, but luckily didn’t happen to me. My experience with Fuji customer support was better than others. But it might not be consistent (only use it twice). Thanks for watching👍

[@darkfungang]

I thought this was only an issue on the 2011 year production versions of the original x100. Are the newer ones still having this issue?

[@CrisConstantin]

That’s what I heard too. I never heard of this issue on x100v, tho..🤔

[@29kan]

@@darkfungang My X100F was bought new in June 2018. The aperture blades stuck about 1 year 3 months later. I've read other cases of the X100F having SAB problem as well. Fuji repair is absolutely no help in getting the problem fixed. still trying to get mine fixed but Fuji is completely nonresponsive. its been an extremely frustrating experience. I loved this camera for the short time that it worked. but over all experience getting it fixed is a complete disappointment. Ive thought about a x100v but dont want to invest in something with the same problem. Interchangeable lenses are the only solution.

[@CrisConstantin]

I am sorry for your exp, but again never heard someone having aperture blades problem on the F or V. It might’ve been a lemon but if they declined the repair that’s bad and unlike Fuji. They are not perfect for sure, but to say that their repair cs is horrible is a bit steep. Anyway, I would try call the Fuji North America and have a chat with a manager. Be safe and hope your problem will be soon solved.

[@MarcoACasco]

I love this camera, it's a real beauty !!!!!

[@kai-ny6sw]

please do the settings video!

[@CrisConstantin]

I wish I did, the x100T is broken, hopefully repaired but not yet. Watch the video of how I destroyed it. If it comes back from repair in one piece I’ll definitely do the settings tutorial. 👍

2:30...The crime...?

[@CrisConstantin]

What crime?😂
