The 5:4 ratio is something people have been begging for, for a long time. I'm so glad it's finally here! I really doubt they'd bring it to older cameras via software updates but it would be so amazing to have it on my X-T3 and X100T. Would be super nice to frame and shoot in 5:4 instead of cropping in post, it's so pleasing!

[@ReinoldFZ]

@Galf506 Maybe you are a professional photographer so you can -loss- invest time in that, for the rest of us the idea of the X100 line is to use its colors, recipes, trying to use it as a film camera, etcetera.

@@ReinoldFZ If you can't invest the time of your life into caring for your photos enough to spend literally 5 seconds cropping your picture, you're not taking photos but polluting your SSD with garbage.

[@ElementaryWatson-123]

I thought of getting Fuji X100VI camera for those times when I want to have something small. But then I compared it to an equivalent Samyang 35/2.8 and instead added it to my Sony A7Cii. The difference in size/weight is very insignificant, the image quality of FF is a lot better, of course, and the difference in price is pretty big also. So unless you are a diehard Fuji fan, or you want just one camera with builtin lens, Fuji doesn't make sense, so it's a pretty niche market.

[@emir6110]

[@DavidHenderson227]

I suggest that you keep this in mind if you are considering Fuji's new X100IV camera. We are living in an age of insane, intense hype, and Fuji has chosen to be part of it. Think about that as you wait weeks for your new camera to arrive. Fujifilm has taken to over-hype of their cameras in recent years, a "Trump-Apple" type of tactic that's completely unnecessary for a quality camera except... in the case of Fuji cameras, the U.S. side of the company is run by promoters and hucksters, not people who have ever enjoyed taking photos. Hence, Fuji hype. When you stop for a moment and take stock of the new X100VI, you will recognize that the latest model is little more than a glorious point-and-shoot. It's not a "pocket camera" as has been claimed because it's too large. Few photographers who use such auto cameras will ever need 40 megapixel. And, no photographer of merit needs all the cute bells and whistle features. Remember, the latest X100 has the same lens that the X100 had back in 2011 when the model was introduced. How about we leave the hype and jive to the politicians and demand that if Fuji introduces a new camera, they manufacture the inventory to meet demand.

Damn, it makes me so happy that Kai and Lok remain close friends. Those old DigitalRev antics kept me amused so much back in the day!

I have the Ricoh GRIIIX and the Nikon Zf. Now I have my copy of the Fuji X100VI because the only way I could see one to decide on one was to buy it. I expected to either return it or just sell it. I’ve since changed my mind and now it’s in my arsenal. It really is great in a lot of ways. Folks keep complaining about the price but there is a bit more in it than the Ricoh. Regardless of where it’s manufactured there is still the added costs of IBIS, 40mp sensor, and let’s not forget the massive inflation in general since 2020. A $200 price jump isn’t too bad. As for everyone crying about “influencers” ruining it, let it go already and enjoy a camera for your own needs/preferences/etc. Too much whining out there and a lot of it is based on frustrations because they can’t get one.

Fuji is just not living in reality anymore. Every company is trying to get in on inflation, just for the sake of greed, in a world where inflation has ravaged peoples disposable income. Being made in China now, just further exposes the grift. $2000 for a fixed lens point and shoot, would be laughably bonkers if it wasn't soo insulting. Yes, people want the camera....but no one wants the price. Sure, there will be people who buy it, but for most of them it will ultimately be a bad purchase. Let's also look at it from a metrical perspective of photos themselves. People take lots of pictures, but how many actually count? How many are the keepers, the golden ones? Maybe over the course of a year, less than 50. But let's look at it over the camera's entire reasonable shelf life, of around 5 years (shelf life being not how long it's usable, but how long the IQ is reasonably modern compared to newer offerings). So let's say you get even 50 "golden" images out of it a year, which is a very high number for even a great photographer. That's about 250 images over that shelf life. Or at the price of this body, about $8 per image. That's a VERY expensive "per image" cost for a typical consumer. But realistically the number of "golden" images will likely be less than 100. Which makes it more like $20 per golden image. When you look at it in its totality, that's $2000 just to make 100-250 images you might print and hang on your wall....but who has space for that many images on their wall? No one would bother. Of course in the modern world, that means they just sit online digitally. The issue is the same though. Anyone can scroll through and view 250 images in less than a couple of minutes....and then completely forget about every image they saw. And all that costs the photographer not only their time and effort....but $2000 to boot. Of course the camera does video too, but since it's a fixed lens camera, no one is really going to use this for professional work. It's at best just going to be some youtubers, where the cost might not matter much....but for the regular consumer? The cost is outrageous and unreasonable for what they ultimately get out of it, not just from a product package perspective, but you must also consider the totality of what a person will ultimately end up with from it after years of use, and that is often not worth anywhere near the original price tag.

Hope Fuji adds USER LUTS and JPEG XL for RAWs and make those 40Mpix more manageable. 🙏 (+opengate)

$1500 for a crop sensor fixed lens 35mm f2 camera, 2.5mm jack, single card slot, made in china? Hmm. Nikon ZF anyone?

[@nanungw951]

overhyped is ok, but overpriced is not ok. IBIS or OIS is already on market since the last decade, so putting it on the Mark VI to justify its higher price is not ok for me. nonetheless fujifilm smartly packaged the VI with the higher res APSC sensor and other bells and whistles to make it more appealing for the TikTok mass.

[@earlycheese6083]

No d pad, made in china, 2000€, out of stock. This is madness

[@单走一个6-m6e]

Dude your underwear also made in China, try not to wear it 😂😂😂

Cmon you guys, lets get this guy 1M!

[@michaelbell75]

The poor man's Leica is getting more expensive. $1,600 and made in China. Yikes.

6:03 As a photographer that could not care less about video...THANK YOU.

[@weiyang6417]

Tempted upgrading my X100T to V. Pass on made in China. Kick rocks if you're offended..

[@miam1074]

up until now everybody was singing praises of how good the AF on the V is. Suddenly, they are all telling us that THIS is a huge improvement in AF from the V... You can not trust whatever they are saying, they will always have a slightly tweaked opinion on the cameras. I had the F version of this camera. Everybody was fainting over how phenomenal the camera is. The AF was complete rubbish! I sold it after 10 months. Hoping that sony will release a new version of the DSC-RX1R. I would def invest in that.

Happy to see you both in UK now.

Never buy a new camera. Any camera. Let someone else carry the depreciation.

[@wanderingstar2717]

Perspective from Jan 2025.. It didn't in fact get more available, at least not in Germany. But finally! I managed to get one from my local store. Happy days

[@ck81818]

Made in China and yet more expensive 🤔🤔

[@nickthaskater]

X-T5 sensor and IBIS aren't free.

[@ck81818]

@@nickthaskater Ohh, that's why they move the production from Japan to China 😄😄

[@nickthaskater]

@@ck81818 not sure what you're trying to say, sorry.

[@StevenKeery]

​@@nickthaskater: Production costs will be cheaper in China, yet the camera price has increased. Same battery, yet new features drawing power from that battery, yet somehow it doesn't overheat. Does it sound feasible to you?

[@nickthaskater]

@@StevenKeery why would it necessarily overheat? It's a larger sensor and IBIS along with a more efficient processor. There's no reason for it to suddenly overheat.

[@RecordProduction]

Looks lovely, I've owned all of the previous 5 versions but on this occasion I'll not bother as I'm enjoying my Nikon Zf with pancake lens as a backup/ low profile go anywhere camera. Maybe if the price drops I'll get one but price needs to soften a bit. I hope it does well 🙂

[@joanyadhatan]

my favourite camera duo ever since DRevTV

[@aliklc3973]

Happy to see you together! 😍

[@youngum78]

The X100 VI has really really inspired me to buy a Leica M. The End.

[@truecuckoo]

That eterna straight out of camera footage looked spectacular. Coupled with a power bank you could probably just keep going and going. Is the auto focus smooth or steppy in video?

[@FRodrigues2589]

I have the original x100 and i love it
