This camera is only produced for Fuji advertising and only available to press and influencers to hype the Fuji brand. Limiting the availability helps create the unwarranted frenzy. Go for the Ricoh, at least you can get one if you're willing to wait a week or so. Or just wait for the XT-50 and throw a pancake on it if you insist on Fuji.

@@bsalvis I'd argue that this camera really needed no influencer models to be sent out for marketing, but it's absolutely wrong to be saying that it's ONLY available to them. Many buyers have been getting their models, and it really does seem that they're doing a lot to be getting as many pumped out as possible.

If Fujifilm is smart (and they are), when using the OVF the sensor is shifted to mitigate parallax, thus reducing the maximum range it can move for IBIS. 7:24

I wondered if it was even simpler than that. What if the EVF screen (which moves down and right when you switch to OVF) physically gets in the way of the IBIS? Maybe there's just not enough space for both while keeping the full range of movement of the IBIS?

We got this a couple of weeks ago before an extended weekend trip, and were insanely happy. We usually shoot with an R8 with an 24-70 F2.8 and find that we are bad at grapping it when walking around. It seems bulky and obtrusive on the street. But in 3 days we took about 1000 pictures on the X100VI. And the wife like using it a lot more than the big R8+24-70. So big thumbs up from here.

​@@jolimabecause you can swap lenses. If you're just starting out, you might find you don't like the 35mm equivalent focal length of the VI. With the XT50 you'll be able to swap lenses. TBH, if you're just starting out, buy a cheaper second hand camera and save the money for a couple of lenses to find out what you like and don't like (most cameras built after 2015 are good enough). It doesn't make sense to drop $1600+ on a fixed lens system as your first camera if you're serious about getting into photography but unsure what you'll like. Don't follow the hype, the VI won't make you a better photographer and there's a ton of alternatives with more flexibility and a smaller price tag. You could pick up the XT30ii and two or three lenses for the same money, for example.

@@JamieFurlong thx for the answer - makes a lot of sense. Actually I had the x100v for a few months and adored the form factor (doing mainly street photography so far); but I wasn’t so happy with the 35 mm and the ibis and sold it again. I had tried some other Fuji bodies in the shop, but back then then pancake lense just seemed nice a small as well was sharper in the x- then in combination with other bodies… Now thinking if the x1006 with wide converter could do the trick or I should go for a changeable lense system

@@jolima if you're already familiar with the form factor then you're definitely in a better position to answer your question than I am. I'm not really a Fuji user and only own three Fuji lenses, all pancakes (I have an old XE2S, which I love). If you like the form factor it sounds like there's a 50mm and 28mm adapter, which covers all your street bases, but you're still using the same lens. With interchangable there's a lot more options when it comes to lenses, but maybe this isn't the most important consideration for you.

Love the formfactor of the X100 line. I had the T, but the AF wasn't quite there, IS would have been great and a tilting screen would have been great. So i changed to a interchangeable lens - Fuji (and kind of regretted selling the T). The X100VI is now almost the perfect camera for me and it is just pure joy to use.

Really nice video. Do you like the camera a lot so far? I thought about the Sony A7cii and geting a 40mm and also a 24mm so sony lens, but the camera you have is cheaper. For street is what Iam looking for. I have a canon r5, but it is kind of big and canon dont have a nice small lens maybe. So you like this camera best? Heard it has same lens as previous model so not sure if the sensor and lens resolves the megapixels effectively or not, how good the quality is? Weight looks nice for street compared to canon r5 with lens. Do you shoot jpg, heif or compressed raw? Is heif good or not supported much? Guess the fujifilm film simulations import into lightroom if shooting conpressed raw. Is it slow if shooting while using the simulation s? Do you shoot Velvia simulation, Portra 160 Portra 800, Lomo 400 or what do you like for street? Any things you dislike about the canera and would you buy it again if you didn’t have it?

I hope Panasonic and Olympus take notice because both have IBIS technology and can easily produce a similar camera. Even right now, you could use a GX9 or PENF with any of the pancake lenses (Panasonic 12-32mm, 15mm, 20mm, or Olympus 14-42) and have a pocketable camera with similar features. Less megapixels (20MP vs 40MP) but also less money.

I've had a X100V for a few years, and people think it's a toy. It's a GREAT camera - I/m sure that the VI is an improvement. When taking group portraits I back off and crop the image - it's like shooting with a 50mm or 70mm lens, and still sharp. So I recently bought an X-T50 with zoom lens. The camera body is also small, and the kit lens is also small, and it has IBIS. The best of both worlds?

I’ve had an X100S since release, and it’s a fun walk around camera. Obviously, the VI has many improvements, but the general use cases are the same. I absolutely agree that it would be more useful with a 28, 40 or 50mm equivalent lens. This is also priced too high for what you get compared to other Fuji bodies. Take the viral hype away, and this would fit nicely in the niche of a niche that it was in before TikTok. If you want something in the Fujifilm system that takes just about the same photos as this, get an XT5.

How did you obtain the cameras? Purchased? From Fuji?

I have to ask myself, is that because they purchased on ebay or other third party scalpers? If not, why would they not say how long they waited for their purchase to arrive. Otherwise it make sense to clarify it was on loan or obtained directly from manufacturer, no?

If you complain about the 35mm lens then you've entirely missed the point of the X100 series. I've had the X100V for over 2 years now. I would miss the 35mm focal length more than I want a 28mm focal length. The whole point of the 35mm is that it's a general purpose focal length. You see, the part of a photographer's brain that is constantly thinking, "Maybe I should swap lenses, or zoom in, I wish I'd brought my whole camera kit..." is freed-up with the X100. You have what you have, complaining won't help, so get on with taking photographs. I ride a single-speed bicycle a lot. It's the same sort of thing. When you have 22 gears you are weirdly never in the best gear ("Maybe I'll change up, or change down"). When you ride single-speed you just turn the pedals and look at the scenery. You're mind is free to do what you're supposed to be doing.

It also needs the accessory to be weather resistant, so I would be stuck with the 35. It would be great if they made other focal length options. Even better if they made a full frame version with a series of compact interchangeable lenses. The money is in the accessories, so I see them releasing something like that in the future.

I’d love to see a video where you compare the new trend of younger people ““ who shoot in film then scan the film to turn them into digital images. Are the film based images as sharp as images produced by this Fuji? If either is a little softer, does it spoil the image? Is it less professional?

Hi Chris, I don't know if you are aware, but there is a 28mm conversion kit you can get for the x100 series. I was looking to purchase this camera and i am a bit put off with the 35mm perspective from the lens. I have never used it either, but for me i want to venture into some wider landscapes with this camera and i think the 28mm conversion kit may be useful for this. None the less, i am sure you are already aware of this but i thought i would just add the comment here! Nice, well structured and informative video as always!

I know this reply is from 3 months ago but I wanted to say I have the 28mm converter for the x100v and I love it so much! If you're able to get a hold of one of you decide on the VI (if you can find anywhere that has one that is) I highly recommend it!

I wasn’t a believer but I got the cam and it’s miles ahead of the V in speed, image quality is also better no matter how much people claim 40MP isn’t a big jump. AF-C is now usable compared to the previous AF generation, close to my XH2 considering the lens doesn’t sport a LM motor

I've always been a stills photographer (other than the odd video shot on my iPhone travelling or of family). I would love to understand more about different video formats. I'd love to see an episode where Jordan talked about the applications of all of these formats. For example, if I was shooting a video of one of my bands for KZbin, what would be the best format? What about for broadcast on a TV music program? What would be required there? As far as the X100VI ....I wish Fuji would bring out an XE4 replacement so I could have a compact camera that I could set-up with different lenses for different applications.

worth noting is Fuji's release of the new xt-50 in mid May. Almost an x100vi but with interchangeable lenses. No built in ND of course, but IBIS, the 40mp sensor, and the new processor should be there.

I bought a used XPRO2 for 600 and a used XH1, with Viltrox 56mm f1.4 and batterygrip (and some stuff) for 800 used, added a used 18-55 for 200 and a new 23mmf1.2, for a grand total of 2000 € You may decide who has the better deal. I also have an old Leica D-Lux , that i still use and love.

the only thing i hate in this fuji x100vi is when i turn on nd filter and then switch to other film simulation, it turns off by itself. In fujix100v when i turn on nd filter, it locked until i turned off camera itself. i wish they would update firmware in future.

Had to wait a huge 6 weeks for mine. Had the V before. Certainly worth an upgrade if you can get a good price for the old camera. The colour rendering above all else is improved with the lovely 40MP camera. Don't get the fuss about Reala Ace though. Definitely don't upgrade for that. Just use provia, with less saturation, a tad more clarity and less contrast. Few mention this, but the build quality is every bit as good as the V. If anything the quality of the dials has improved and has a bit less plasticky wobbly feel. And yes you do notice the lens is a tiny fraction longer. I think that's why there's a slightly deeper lens cap - to try to hide this a bit. Some might complain about the crop factors in video, but I actually use it to my benefit to get a bit closer to the action without the TC. A real shame the digital teleconverters aren't available for video, but this is one way to get around it! That teleconverter is rather big. The wide angle converter is tiny though. Tap to track really surprises me. It actually works.

Used to love 35mm equivalent. Still love the x100vi in principle and it means I have a camera literally in my pocket when I might have none at all. But i find myself drawn more and more to 28mm, 40mm and 50mm these days. And have a 23 1.4 for the x-t5 for one lens one camera days, which I already don't use enough. The plan was to replace it with the x100vi for this purpose. Would I take it on a trip to japan or any big trip? No. X-t5 and 3 lenses will nearly always make the kit. Two camera carry with a tele or telezoom on the x-t5, a good option. But heavier than an extra lens and changing lenses. But as a compact option with familiar controls and output, that means I have a camera when I otherwise wouldnt, and for putting subjects at ease, it's a great option. Just rather expensive if you have to buy at full price compared to a 23mm f2 lens for 1/3 the price - even if not quite as good. I wasn't sure if I'd keep it, but creating custom presets that really reflect the nature of the camera and type of photography I'm more likely to do with it really helped me grown to appreciate it more. Just using my x-t5 presets made me miss the performance of that camera. It's a great way to distinguish the cameras some more, even if a bit artificial.

I've been having an absolute blast with the X100VI. I use an FX3 and A7IV as my professional cameras so having something that is so compact and portable for those times where I want a camera, but don't relish the idea of lugging my heavy and more expensive gear around, it really is amazing. A lot of it is also just the approach I take with this camera, and how different it is from the way I typically shoot. Everything jpg + raw, no editing, SOOC. It's freeing.

I wanted an X100VI, but didn’t want to wait forever, so I got an X-T5 instead. I haven’t bought a pancake lens yet, but my theory was that an X-T5 with the short lens would be pretty close to the X100VI, but with interchangeable lenses. I don’t know all the differences between them, being new to Fujifilm, my impression now is that the XT5 is a significantly more complex camera, it is taking me longer than I expected to learn how to use it reasonably well.

For anyone who’s getting FOMO over the X100vi, I’d highly recommend looking forward to the upcoming X-T50. Compact size, lens options, IBIS, and 40 mp (and presumably a lower cost). If I already didn’t have the X-t5 and X100vi, I’d be looking at that as my first budget option.

Tx for the very interesting and real review. You forgot a lot of things, cause the flipscreen doesn´t work in Portrait. The D-Pad is missing, the camera is far from being perfect. Fujifilm messed it up to the point of not being able to deliver amounts demanding the market.

I have always loved the x100 series but this version is my dream b-roll cam. There are so many times I’m out and don’t have an ND on me, or by the time I dig the ND out the moment has passed. Now if only they are available before it’s discontinued and the 7 is released lol.

Received my x100vi two weeks ago. Sold my x100v. I, too, find the OVF just a gimmick and use the EVF. In customizing the functions I discovered that by activating "3D" level vs "2D" (3D adds a virtual horizon) the OVF is disabled. At first I thought my new camera was defective. Spoke with Fuji support and together we experimented: it's the 3D function. But I don't use the OVF so it's irrelevant. I love the new camera and can handhold slower exposures. I don't use the tracking AF. Access requires too much menu diving. (Sony does it better - on my a7CR and a7Rv I have subject tracking on a custom button and target selecting in a Fn field). When hand holding I prefer to focus with a center small spot then reframe and fire. I have the touch screen disabled since it moves the focus point when I don't wish it to (less of an issue on the Sony bodies where I can fold the screen closed when not needing it). Most of all, shooting with this gem is like using the cameras on which I learned 70 years ago as a child: my dad's Leica IIIf rangefinders.

I remember a long wait to get my hands on the X100S back in the day. Loved the camera. It ended up being a "gateway" to the Leica M for me :-) I still have the X100S though I don't use it as much these days. It used to be in my briefcase back when I commuted to work every day in the pre-pandemic era.
