Which of These Retro Cameras Is Right for You?

Retro cameras have become highly popular in the last few years, with many championing their tactile mechanical designs that encourage the user to be a more active part of the photographic process rather than someone operating a machine. Two leading options are the highly popular Fujifilm X100V and the new Nikon Zf. Which is right for you? This excellent video comparison takes a look at both cameras to help you choose the option for you. 

Coming to you from Taylor Jackson, this great video review compares the Fujifilm X100V and Nikon Zf mirrorless cameras. The X100 series has long been highly popular among photographers, but the Zf option offers some nice things the X100V cannot, most notable being a full frame sensor and interchangeable lenses. This is something worth considering if you do not often find yourself shooting at 35mm (the equivalent focal length of the X100V's lens) or if you highly value the ability to use a variety of different focal lengths. That being said, the X100V is an absolute joy to use; even me, someone who generally hates fixed lens cameras, highly enjoyed the experience of using it. Both look like great cameras. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Jackson.
