Why I Bought the Fujifilm X100F - The X100V Alternative

I bought the FujiFilm X100F instead of the X100V?
The main reason why I didn't buy the Fuji X100V was because of price. I wasn't about to spend $3000 on a camera that is currently valued at $1000 over sticker price. I still wanted a small, compact camera with film simulations and recipes, so I went with the predecessor, the Fujifilm X100F. Many people would say this is the best alternative to the X100V at the right price.
So in today's video, I wanted to tell you why I bought the Fujifilm X100F. I was lucky to get a good deal on this camera and I'm excited to create with it.

What are some things you want to know about this camera?

[@okthen8445]

Does it have classic negative or can it be updated to have it

[@cmykdilution]

Legit video. I carry my X100F almost daily. Very fun camera.

[@sayhowling]

good video, unfortunately i cant justify myself getting an x100F as I still have my X-T30. and I legit don't see any reason to downgrade

[@rogerbrooksfilms]

I have a black X100F, it is fantastic and in my opinion is good enough when compared to the V, or Vi for that matter. I’ve never been disappointed with my X100F images. Only pixel peeping and/or large prints could show the difference, and even then the difference would be negligible.

[@richardwells1709]

Fujifilm x100f is still a great camera. I have had mine a few years now Still love the images it produces. Call me old fashioned but I still prefer the the button on this camera compared to the touch screen on the newer 100v. I also kept my old 100s. This is an old camera now, however it still works fine and probably performs better if you like a more film look to your photos. Also is is very good values secondhand 😊

[@davidatkinson1413]

Thanks so much Stefano for this video. I too am a Sony shooter with a7Rii and a7iii bodies but am getting tired of lugging everything around when I travel so have been looking at an x100F as an everyday carry around camera. Your video helped me a lot.

[@pnojazz]

Actually the Fuji WCL and TCL X100 lenses are made specifically for this camera. They enable you to add wide or telephoto lenses to this camera. But I’m guessing you knew this? They’re quality lenses made by Fuji specifically for this camera, and are available new for $350 and I’ve seen them used for as low as $150 on eBay.

[@PenpenChump]

I do have Fuji x100f I really loved it!!!

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

It's so good!

[@gracel3457]

Your camera is amazing beautiful pics great work I love your job😍🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

Thank you so much!!

[@AnthonyGugliotta]

Fuji looking pretty good here!

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

It really is! I love it

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

It really is! I love it

[@annalauraamenta]

Can you shoot raw + film simulation at the same time?

[@pictorest]

Sure👍

[@selishots]

I think the x100v is actually starting to come back in stock. I've seen a few posts recently about people getting it form B&H pretty quick now

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

I was searching everywhere around me couldn’t find anything! Vistek and Fujifilm both told me they don’t know when they’ll be back in stock!

[@tomscott4438]

Not sure where you are getting your info, but this is BS. The X-100V is discontinued as well as the X-Pro3 and X-E4. I suspect an X-100(?) is coming, but no news or even leaks on new models of the others, and I fear they have abandoned the rangefinder style bodies in favor of the X-T and X-H models. If so, very sad. Fuji, WTF? Why are you discontinuing your most popular models?

[@tomscott4438]

@@StefanoLombardoYT They're not coming back. I suspect an upgrade to the X-100V is coming, but I fear the Pro and X-E line might be dead. 😞

[@knotingspecific]

X100Vs is coming

[@jae92797]

i actually got my x100v from b&h for retail price. ordered it a couple days ago and came in the mail yesterday. i followed a twitter page that posts whenever the x100v goes in stock so i followed and put post notis on for that page and was fast enough to get it on b&h before it became out of stock.

[@asmr_reviews]

I heard it can record video. Do you know if you can use the film simulation for video?

[@HuaweiP-yn2bw]

If you can't get x100f for a resonable price then look for x-e2 or x-e3 with a 28 f/2.8 lens

[@dannymartinez1999]

My only genuine concern with the x100f is the lack of weather sealing. How important is it when considering a camera?

[@pictorest]

I put some tape over the useless microphone and added a filter. Haven't had a problem for years.

[@atononmymind]

how's the video quality?

[@StefanoLombardoYT]

To be completely honest, not the best. It only shoots up to 1080p where the X100V can do up to 4k. It's definitely a "photo only" camera! If video is important to you, the new X100VI is a good choice!

[@lolmig-6818]

Hello ! Where did you buy your x100F ?

[@Faazyduzzy24]

You can check online or shops that sell new or second hand cameras you can ask them if they have the X-100F

[@HuaweiP-yn2bw]

In Russia used market you could get x100f for $800-1000 us

[@DTUFINOPhotography]

i'm thinking this or the GRIII and use my Canon r5 as my professional work.

[@pictorest]

I've both and I'll keep them...😊

[@fulltang1]

The question to ask is true pocket ability a top priority? Then the GR is a no brainer. The x100f is more durable and robust

[@martingreenberg870]

$3000 for the X100v? Buy a Leica Q or Q2. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)
