I have rarely been a big fan of fixed prime lens cameras, but the exception has always been the Fujifilm X100 series. What started out as a quirky and fun camera has evolved into a highly capable professional tool in its fifth generation — all without losing any of the unique personality that first endeared it to photographers. This excellent video review takes a look at the new model and the sort of image quality and performance you can expect from it in practice.
Coming to you from Gajan Balan, this great video review takes a look at the Fujifilm X100V. Balan bills the camera quite highly, and I have to agree with him, as you can read in my review. Like other Fuji cameras, the X100V is designed to keep your eye to the viewfinder and out of the menus as much as possible, and it certainly succeeds in doing that. Beyond that, it is a ton of fun to shoot with. And now in its fifth iteration, it has the photographic chops to back up that design and meet the needs of demanding professionals. Check out the video above for Balan's thoughts on the X100V.
No.
I owned an X100S and later tried again with a X100F.
I much prefer Ricoh GR 2 and 3 for street photography.
Fuji X100 series is too big, the AF is too slow and it doesn't have snap focus.
I guess it's a good camera for people who want a Leica and can't afford it.
I own an A7III and 40mm Voigtlander lens. Forget snap focus and my setup is definitely not compact for street. I prefer to pre-focus rather than rely on autofocus. Plenty of street photographers love the X100V and I’ve seen enough decent photos taken with it. It might not be my preferred setup but I do think it’s a very decent street camera. Your bad mouthing is quite harsh.
I had a Ricoh copier once and it was pretty good. I left it out in the street when it got old.
Yes , absolutely one of the best for real photographer ..........
Gajan is pretty heavy on the hype in this one, but it is a great camera. It's certainly good enough that it makes considering an interchangeable lens camera with a comparable 35mm equivalent lens very unappealing.
Well you lost me when you bad mouthed flip out screen. I will never buy a camera that doesn’t have a flippy screen.
Mount Rushmore is not a "colonial" monument. It was started in 1927 and "finished" in 1941.
