Fujifilm x100vi… eventually

Guys I didn’t anticipate this but I have preordered the Fujifilm x100vi 🙈 when my x100v took a tumble last night (it survived 😅) it made me realize how devastated I would be if it broke and I had no replacement (since the back order is so bad right now) so I figured it’s worth me getting the new one and keeping my x100v as the backup in the future. Anyone who knows me knows I carry this camera literally everywhere everyday so for me to be without one for any length of time would be hard for me. To many it may seem a lot of the photos I take with it are silly little snaps but to me they are beautiful memories to look back on for years to come.
I placed my order at the local camera store like I did for my x100v however I’m about 135th in line which they said will be at least a 6 month wait 🥴🫠

Makes total sense to me…..

I have the x100t for many years now. Due to G.A.S. I got caught into the X100VI craze; hence I bought it. 24 hours later… I’ve packed it and returning it (at a loss). In short, I’m disappointed. I consider it more of a hype, rather than quality item. A perfectly executed marketing strategy, turned a mediocre product into an object of obsession. The looks, no doubt, turn it into a fetish. However:
- the autofocus is still seriously subpar
- the filters are a hype , without too much separation between them in their respective groups
- the image quality of the new x-trans sensor is nowhere close to the old sensor (x-100t), straight out of camera
I’m saving my money fr either the Leica deluxe 8 or a serious lens for my Canon system, and if I want to immerse…. I’ll go to my old and faithful x100t, anyday/anytime .
Of course, a serious photographer can twist the output around and create magic out of the VI, however similarly so from any camera. Just saying, this thing, in my view …is not worth the dopamine surge.

I personally have seen a huge improvement over even my x100v so I’m very happy with my x100vi. Everyone is going to have their different preferences and needs but for me this was actually worth the upgrade.

Hi can you tell me which leather case you have for your x100v ? Thanks

[@AllieBishopphoto]

I actually got it as a gift so I’m not sure but I believe it was purchased from Amazon

Just buy an A7C with waaaaaaay more flexibility

I had one. I hated it. Not for me.
