- The X100V is almost a perfect camera! I have had this camera for several years, along with every other X100 Series camera. Is it worth the upgrade?

"Why you don't need it". NICE TRY trying to make us cancel our orders so you can get yours earlier. I HOPE YOU HAVE TO WAIT 6 MONTNS.
😅😅
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼 and for giving me a laugh
@@hunterhart1 Anytime.
A camera of which the lens cannot fully the 40 Mpxl , slow AF , terrible build quality, mediocre sharpness and microcontrast, just TikTok people buy this kind of stuff!
@@marleenvandam6931 what’s your preferred camera / lens choice?
Hunter! This rocks. Love your photos - a true inspiration on what’s possible!!!!!!
Thanks man, I really appreciate you saying that. Right back at you on your last video, love how you showed images from all the X100 series
Interesting perspective, Hunter! Really appreciate the transparency. Nice info in this :) 👏
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
so glad i found your page. just bought the vi, sold the v a few years ago, much regrets on that. cant wait to learn from your style
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. I hope you love the camera! Let me know!
Im an xt3 user before and sold it to buy the a7iv due to the accuracy af of sony full frame for my professional work. but now the x100vi released, i preorder it and just waiting it to arrived. the color reproduction of fuji made me come back.its just phenomenal!!!
Im sure you’ll love it! Let me know!
Thanks for your comments. Very helpful and your photos are great!
Thank you so much and thanks for watching
Buying a used X100V is more money than getting a new X100VI. Best the feature of the VI is that you can actually order one. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for watching!
I loved the X100F. Took it to Siciliy with my wife. Congrats to your video, the photos you took with the X100V are stunning as always.
Ahh I bet you loved every bit of that, would like to see those photos! Thanks so much for watching 🙏🏼🎉
Great video, thanks! I really love it when people show more beautiful samples and less of their talking head / b-rolls:)
Thanks so much man, I appreciate the compliment. Welcome to the channel 🙏🏼🤙🏼
Your photography is absolutely beautiful and creative. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for your support and thanks for taking the time out of your day to give such a nice compliment, I really appreciate it!
I need a how to take pictures like Hunter series. Incredible as always!
😅 thanks man, hard to explain some things honestly. Thanks for watching 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Nice review and very nice samples, you're a great "practicing photographer"; I enjoy your journalist - like flavor on some photos. That being said, i really think your channel deserves way more viewers. Cheers mate.
Thank you so much, that is a very flattering compliment. Also, thanks for thinking I deserve more subscribers, that is really nice of you. Cheers
The benefit to the 40 megapixel is cropping in camera to get a true 20MP 50mm shot and a 10mp 70mm shot. I would not care about the higher megapixels on a interchangeable lens, but on the fixed lens it really makes this camera much more versatile.
You can get the WCL or the TCL if you’d like a 28mm or a 50mm, they work for all X100 cameras and the quality doesn’t dissolve. I’m sticking to my guns on the 40mp is too much. Thanks so much for watching, subscribing and taking time to comment 🙏🏼 a
@@hunterhart1 yes you can, and then you’ve got 28/35/50/70/105 by combining digital and the converters, which is a pretty damn versatile setup in a package that fits in a 3l sling bag. It’s the ultimate travel setup. That’s what I’ll have, if my pre order every comes in lol.
@@ramblingcameraman990 sounds like ya got it figured out !
This guy gets it.
You'll never get a 50mm or 70mm shot by cropping simply because cropping does not change the physics of the lens.
Hunter! Huge fan of your work and are one of my favorite photographers! Fun question, you can only choose one camera to shoot the rest of your life, the Leica Q1 or the x100v. Which is it gonna be? 😏
If the Q is in great condition, I’d probs go with the Q. Thanks so much!! I really appreciate it.
Enjoyed your video! Great images too! Appreciate your candid tone. I had an earlier X100 camera but the focus was soo spotty, so sold it. I have preordered this new because of the improved AF and Ibis. Agree with 40 mega pixels is more than needed.
Awesome! I don't have a doubt in my mind that you are going to love the X100VI, especially if you are coming from an older X100 system! Let me know how it goes please, thanks for watching and taking time to comment!
why not get the x-s10 or 20 for your small video package? Thanks for the video!
🤔 I have had the XS10 and it’s not near as small as the X100 lineup. I did enjoy using it and it was a lot smaller than my other larger cameras but it just never made me feel creative like the other Fuji cameras with the mechanical dials
Thanks for watching!
Damn you, Hunter! ❤
🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
I have the 100VI and love everything about it, I had sold my 100V back in the Fall for an awesome price knowing that the six would be out this year...I'm happy with the 40mp as I can crop some without issues and thankfully it doesn't have more video features, and this is a photographer's camera. I agree the ND filter is super nice and the fact it's a real ND filter and not software makes it even better
Thanks for watching!
Hey this may seem random but Does the button on your evf/ovf lever feel loose to you? Also does it spin around? I just got my x100vi and can’t find anyone else with one to compare it to.
I have the X100V, mine doesn’t do that 🤔
@@hunterhart1 appreciate the response. Thank you for confirming my suspicions
Amazing photos!
Thank you so much
First of all great video! I'm happy my photo made a cameo appearance.
I had the x100f and I loved it. I think a 40 megapixel is more useful than you would think especially if you're cropping your photo after the fact.
It's also a nice little flex for Fuji to align themselves with the Leica Q series
A flex indeed, thanks for watching and letting me put your face on TH-cam without your consent 😂
Great point. IBIS and 40mp cropped to 20mm for 50mm perspective are both advantages as is 6/4k. I’ve seen some excellent video snippets from the VI where they knew how to get the best results by getting 4K via a high quality down sampling in camera (think it was something like HQ mode?).
I’ve shot Canon pro gear for 34 yrs ever since the brilliant EOS1 came out. It still works fine today and is so simple to use, as an ex manual then A priority fan. My full on DSLR kit with L lenses weighs a ton and I’ll be 65 this week so light is best….
The reasons I have got the VI are:
Size, weight, weatherproofing (with a filter), great lens both 35mm equivalent and for sharpness, advanced video snips over an iPhone pro, optical VF with add ons, and the 40mp for all the right reasons, and finally film sims as I always used Fuji since I moved to Canon.
I just spent a few hours yesterday scanning in some old family photos of my son in 1986 on a a Minox GT35 and my niece in 1990 on the EOS1, both were shot on Fuji. The negatives were excellent giving true to life colours but the Provia slides were amazing. So the VI will save me all that processing hassle.
As an indicator, I took the Canon pro and Bronica MF kit in the early 1990s to the West Coast U.S.A. including the Grand Canyon and then to India. Each trip cost close on £1k in film, development and test printing. All the Fuji negs and slides look like the day they were shot. By the way 98+% of exposures were perfect, as I know how to use exp comp.
I’m off to a tour of China in a few weeks. Thinking of just the VI, my friend’s good Panasonic hybrid with its 1200mm equivalent reach even though it’s only 16mp, it can do RAW and 4K. I may add in my EOSM5 and the great little 11-22 zoom for confined spaces.
Great video Hunter and I said pretty much the same things in my x100 VI video I would’ve been far more impressed with the 26 megapixel stack sensor from the X H2 S because the faster read out speed in the better low light performance if they had couple that with the ibis, they would’ve had a grand slam
Thanks man, and thanks for letting me know how ya felt about it. Maybe they’ll come out with an X100VIS lol
Hi. What filter with orange color ring is on the fuji x100vi? Thanks
amzn.to/48Ev92i
Holy fucking shit! My man!!! You just pushed up the price again for the V! Those photos have blown my mind. You got skills and I don’t where you live but the light there is like heaven. Congrats 🙌🏿
😅 thanks Alan, I think I need a few hundred thousand subs before shifting an entire market 😂😂 thanks so much for being kind and your amazing compliment 🙏🏼
It's rarely about needing, it's about wanting.
Amen
That hard drive line was a personal attack 😅
😅 you know that’s such a trigger word for you
At least you don't got a gfx system lol rip hds ( I don't but a friend does, and he's got tons of externals lol) @@hunterhart1
Sorry to sound harsh, but honestly I feel the resolution point is just parroted without much thoughts.
You can change the resolution in the settings… it’s as simple as that.
I think it is filmed with many frames, it seems fast forward 🎞. Love your photos!
Thanks so much 🙏🏼
It's simple, the X100 line and the Leica Q line are direct competitors. Previously, the only reason to own a Q3 was that the higher megapixels helped you retain resolution when cropping in. Now that the X100VI can do the same and has better OIS, the Q3 is a completely redundant tool.
A Leica Q3 from Germany is never redundant, but it costs more than the "Made in China" Fujifilm X100VI. But it has a fullframe sensor, 20MP more, the better lens.....and last but not least......it is a Leica ❤ The Fujifilm X100VI is a nice camera, but not the same. 🤷🏻
Much greatings from Germany 😊
@@alexandergrafvonrothenstein Good point it's disappointing that they moved from made in Japan to made in China for the X100 line. I haven't used the X100VI to be able to tell if there is a significant difference in quality but that's a good observation.
In terms of Image quality, the Q3 was slightly better than the X100V (more so in low light). But the X100V was a much faster camera in terms of autofocus and operation.
The issue is that even though the Leica uses a larger sensor, its digital processing has not advanced significantly in years. Fuji's far superior processing on X-trans closes the gap quickly.
I'm sorry if I'm coming off harsh. I love Leica cameras, but I feel that as a company they been advancing very slowly in the last decade. Leica needs to make better cameras if it is charging 4-5X the price of a Fuji, because there is little reason to buy one other than wanting a "Leica" experience.
dont forget the Q3 has a full frame sensor with its own color science, it's properly weather-sealed (at least the 100VI is possible with a basic filter), has a proper focus tab and distance markings (helpful for zone focusing), and it's a German brand that's German-made. idk why you're saying it's redundant when they're different cameras.
The only competition between the two is budget, and size maybe (but the size of the Q line may be an advantage over the Fuji X100 line whose small size (except for parking) some people may have a problem with).
I think Fuji has been very careful, for whatever reason ;O), not to step too much on other competitors' toes and, for that matter, stay within the APS-C line. Both X pro and X100 lines (inspired by Leica M as far as their design and their pseudo rangefinders/viewfinders go) do not try to compete directly with Leica (which might be a reason why Leica seems to be discontinuing its APS-C line (TLs and Cs), just a hypothesis of mine here). Using a Q is a very different experience from using an X100 (the way they are built, the way one uses them, the sensor, the lens, the color science... in all these the Qs beat the X100s).
Buying a Q3 is for same reason people buy Rolex watches … mostly for show.
Your advice makes a lot of sense to me, for my photography uses. I think I'll keep my XPro3, and wait for the XPro4.....of course the same advice might apply to the XPro4. We shall see! ;)
I think the XPro4 will have the 40mp sensor, IBIS and a new screen. If I had to guess! Thanks for watching
I rented the V a couple of years ago just to see if the hype was worth it. I didn’t even wait the entire seven days to keep it. It went back on day three. Still trying to understand why it’s so popular.
what flash you're using for overpowering the sun with x100v?
The only flash I use is the one built into the camera. Thanks for watching
Yes!! Thank you! Dual card slots. Even a micro SD I would use this as my main camera at weddings. Even a slightly thicker camera wouldn't be an issue. Everyone was calling me crazy for wanting dual card slots. With the 40mp I could have used it as a 50mm (ff equiv) as well as the 35mm (ff equiv). Then I only need a tele and a super wide and you're good to go. The macro feature for close up detail shots. Leaf shutter for flash work in the daytime. Please Fuji Dual card slot. Professionals would flock to it.
I know!! Such a no brainer, micro SD would have been fine! Maybe next time 🙏🏼. Thanks so much for watching, subscribing and letting me know your thoughts
Great post. Curious what fuji camera you would recommend if you think 40 mp sensor is over kill. I currently have the xt2. Very happy with it.but just looking aheadI.curious your thoughts.
I rocked the XT4 for a long time and it was amazing, it was my main body for a couple years. Has the same sensor as an XPro3 and the X100V! If you like the rangefinder I’d go XPro3 but you have the lack of visible flip screen.
@@hunterhart1 Thanks so much for your response, I wish fuji released a xe-5 ,problem solved, but for now I love the screen on xt2 like the 100v, I think the v would be nice to add with my xt2, but for now I may just get a 27 pancake to hold me over and save money, Quick question if I just shoot jpeg are the jpeg files huge on xt5? That may be great for my use.
They're. considerably smaller than the RAW images. The X100V is a great pair with the XT2 but I have a feeling it would make you want to upgrade to a newer XT camera since it has all new features over the XT2. Have you watched either of my videos on the 27mm Viltrox or the 27mm TT artisans? I think the TT Artisans video may peak your interest if you like using film recipes.
@@adamdevries8121
@@hunterhart1 the artisans 27 is 100 percent is what im getting, Love the character on it, viltrox 27 I hear is amazing but bulky for on the go. I did see your video on it, thanks for posting. and a great price point, if jpegs are small enough file size the upgrade to the new xt5 makes sense for my use, the v if I ever see used at a good price down the road, Thanks again for your opinions, all the best, high five,,,
Thanks again! @@adamdevries8121
So fun the HYPE around this camera. Many people think it is because everybody wants to shoot with the X100VI. I have been traveling in Thailand for only 10 days now. I already met 3 people that bought the X100VI. Nobody for shooting them self, but only for selling to a higher price later. My only digital gear are Fujifilm, but I think they are not really doing much good the last couple of years by developing cameras that focus on photography. They are on the hype for people just want everything going faster, more pixels but 95 % only have there picture on social media. So fun to see
It’s definitely an interesting dynamic between what’s good and what’s popular. Thanks for watching and subscribing 🙏🏼
Solid video. The 40 megapixels is definitely a lot and I’m crossing my fingers that I can have some kind of workaround for that. Overall, I’m looking forward to taking a break from my Sony cameras haha
Yeah man, I don’t blame you on getting a break with Sony. I have to do that myself quite often and it’s nice
I have to agree, if you have a V no point really upgrading. The V is an amazing camera, has more than enough MP and renders images amazingly. Somethings nagging me though to upgrade though….maybe all the hype and GAS kicking in lol. Will stick with the V for now.
Proud of you for not folding😅 it’s hard I know. Thanks for watching
This vindicated for me the fact that I'm super happy with my x100v. For hobby-est photographers (--> me) 24mp is plenty, and I'm not looking to store huge files. IBIS has just not been an issue for me.
Honestly you're one of those photographers where I see your images and I just think, okay, it's not the camera. It encourages me to keep working on my skills. Because we have the same camera and...my photos don't look anything like your photos! Thanks for a great video.
I take this as a huge compliment, thanks so much Scott!

No way, the heat buildup would be insane. Record times of 90 secs or something. The heat countdown would feel like a mission impossible bomb scene!
💥😅 I’m dead, that’s funny. Nobody is really talking about that. I think the new processor from the XH2s is what would keep it cooler. Fuji claims “There are recording limits of up to 45min when shooting in 4K, and up to 60 minutes when shooting in HD.”
You can still shoot at 26MP
Well said. Not to mention the X100V was made in Japan and the VI in China. We've already seen a bit of a difference in quality control from these manufacturing differences with Fujifilm. If anything, it's time to pick up an X100V again now that the market is coming back to earth.
Nice camera! 🧐😆
I had a V for about a year and a half up until early last year. Had to sell it for financial reasons, but would have kept it if I could. The launch of the VI coincided perfectly with my finances getting back in order, so I went onto Facebook Marketplace and found a like-new V at a much more sensible price (compared to the crazy "hype pricing"). I also own an X-H2 with some lenses, so I already have access to the 40mp sensor and find it better suited to that camera and for what I use it for (though all purely for hobbyist photography). The V remains my favourite camera of all time and I have no intention of ever selling this one.
Bought the X100VI with the money I got from selling my X100V and still have $200 left. So price wise I actually fell for the VI 😊. I do agree with this video, I always liked the image quality of X100S more than the X100V.
Nice! That’s what I recommended at the end. I really hope you make some cool videos and nice photos with the camera as well 🙏🏼 thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Where did you get the rope strap?
I had a friend who works with leather make it for me. instagram.com/remrock.goods?igsh=N3IxZ3F1N3U0MmI1
This company also makes the one I switched to, which is a bit lighter and great quality as well. instagram.com/hawkesmillbags?igsh=MWlkN216bDB1c21xbQ==
I hate the increase in mp but the IBIS is worth the trade off for me.
Yeah man, the IBIS is going to be amazing to have. It is a great camera, don't get me wrong.
they don't put 40Mpx because the camera needs it but because the sensor is developed and available ... it's simpler to put the same sensor in the whole line ... but i agree 40mpx is a lot ... perhaps too much
Yeah I understand but they also have the XH2S sensor that is developed as well. I feel like they could have easily put it in there too. Thanks for watching!
The 40Mpx is too make it an easier buy for those sceptical of choosing a camera with a fixed lens, because it allows a lot of cropping, and it even has digital 50mm and 70mm modes you can use
Fuji X100VI is simply the BEST of all of the X100 series. I have one, and I know, and no, I didn't get because of 40mp... It is so much more than that.
does it tend to get warm like V ?
hahaha I've been asking the same question
I am not sure, I wouldn’t be surprised. Although it has a new processor so maybe that helps with not creating as much heat 🤷🏽♂️
@@hunterhart1 how was your experience while testing it?
@@stefanusadrian8398 I haven’t used the camera. I have no idea 🤷🏽♂️ it’s all speculation. That was my first sentence in the video
40 is not overkill. Pixels for pixel sake is not about enlarging. It’s about lack of AA filter, better tone gradations, correcting keystone distortions after the fact, slight re-compositions later too. And hard drives have never been cheaper per GB than they are now.
Thanks for watching!
You’re wrong about the aperture not closing on Sony etc … if you’re in manual and change aperture, you can see it ^^
What lens?
neither dual card slor nor internal memory is a priority for me. :)
I’m so tired of hobbyist photographers not comprehending the need for a dual card slot, people use these x100 cameras for a lot of professional work and the need for dual card slots is very much needed especially when fujifilm is charging $1600 for it
Tell umm Patrick
I had the 100V and sell it to buy the 100VI, cuz the IBIS is a big yes for me.
Understandable, thanks for watching!
Some people spend 8k on a camera to "slow down"...All Fujifilm has to do is put 40MP sensor in this camera to slow YOU down ;-)
More Pixel = better noise reduction (in post).
I saw someone selling one for $6,500 on eBay 😅
@@hunterhart1 So NOW you can slow down the photography for real...but only with a 6,5k x100vi 🤣
I don't need this camera. It's like I don't need a second car, I don't need a bigger and a smaller iPad, and I don't need two phones etc etc. I just want this as a toy sitting right next to my Sonys
lol yes exactly, at least your honest!
Ignoring this video because I do NEED it.
You’re getting it 😂 it’s on the way fool.
I feel like there is no going down to the x100v lol coz nobody can seem to find them
I saw one on Facebook yesterday going for $850 but that’s the only one I’ve seen in a while
you don't need this hype camera. i ve seen people resell this for obscene amount on marketplace ... it's ridiculous
You should try Leica M11 + 35mm APO much much better experience than X100VI
Leic Q or fuji x100vi? From an IQ perspective?
Leica Q
I see me!!
Told ya man, couldn't leave ya hangin
x100v gang 🤝
🤜💥🤛
The tears are real.
For cropping
Thanks for the insight. And thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Missed the mark or not - will sell like hot cakes.
Oh yeah, no doubt about it
Of course you don't need it but it's very much wanted....jog on.
😅 facts
We don’t need it, but we WANT it! Damn you fomo
😂 love it
And some how pro film photographers didn’t have dual film cartridges. 😂 This obsession two sd cart slots is a bit silly.
What do you do for a living?
@hunterhart1 I make sure homes are ready to live in for multiple real estate companies across Central Florida. And portrait work on the side. I'm just giving you hard time, I just think, just maybe, if you're a photographer, some might be obsessing a bit with dual card slot thing. Now, for you people talented enough to be able to create photos and videos, I get it! My brain just can't do it. I don't have that talent.
That sounds like a pretty solid job! I was curious if you were a full time photography only kind of guy or if you were a side hustle guy. I can totally understand not worrying about the card slots if you aren't shooting weddings, I 100% get that. However, I have had 2 cards fail in the past 12 years of shooting weddings and one happened to be in the middle of a wedding earlier in my career using a Leica Q with one card slot as a second body. Luckily for me, I was smart enough to only be using that camera for fun creative shots and I only ended up losing about 45 images off of the couple hundred that I took. The fact is, you don't need an insurance policy or a seatbelt until you have had an accident. I have had a few accidents and I am glad I had that insurance and seatbelt both times. I know you are just giving me a hard time, but if an up and coming photographer reads advice or comments stating that you don't need 2 card slots and then they go out and lose an entire wedding (which would more than likely end their career) I would hate for that to be due to a comment on TH-cam that they have seen. I am sincere when I say thank you so much for calling me a talented photographer, that carries a lot of weight and I really appreciate you watching my videos and taking the time to comment. I would love to see some of your portrait work, I try to connect with as many people as I can on this platform! @@WhoIsSerafin
@@hunterhart1 I actually was getting card failures in the early years but once Olympus implemented wireless photo transfer for raws in 2016 I never took out my sd card again. I realized I never had issues again probably because they weren’t being messed with. And I’ve actually had an issue with my 100v sd card because you can’t wirelessly transfer raws. Even the updated app is horrible! And I just got the Nikon ZF and that app is fantastic is fantastic for wireless transfer! Even easier than Olympus/OMsystems. That camera has two card slots and I don’t know what to do with them 😂
Megapixels for crops brah
I can’t imagine buying a camera solely so I can crop a few images.
@@hunterhart1 if you do street photography would be quite often. Plus you can just choose to crop into a tighter focal length before you snap.
i dont need it as i am broke and i cannot affod the x100vi
X100F will drop in price soon!
Let's flip the question and ask, "why pay $1500 for a used x100v today, when you can pay $1600 for a x100VI when it's in stock?"
I found an X100V for $950 yesterday. But yes, I agree. The question at the end of the video is "if you have an X100V already, is it worth the upgrade" and "if you don't have an X100V then you should get an X100VI"
The obsession with dual cards is bit ridiculous in my opinion. In reality when have you had a card fail for if it is the camera a dual card will save you. Just buy a high quality large capacity card. I been using digital cameras since 2008 and never had a card failure or a camera.🤗
What do you do for a living Hubert? Do you do weddings full time?

2MP for a billboard? You gotta be kidding.
th-cam.com/video/UCaZt5ndRW0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=n3dBRTCv7W34u5TN
How many do you think it takes?
@@hunterhart1 100MP+. If you're taking a picture of thick striped lines, you can do it in 2MP since there are no details. Even the Victoria's Secret poster shots, you can see the pixel breaking up. I believe those were taken with 16MP Cannon.
@@mvisperas okay, so you just said Victoria secret is using 16mp for a billboard but you need over 100mp to make a billboard? The point is, you’re probably not using an X100 to blow up a billboard more thank likely. But if you are, (according to you) the X100V does not have enough megapixels either. So you’re stuck with a GFX100 or a Hassleblad in order to produce an image large enough for your billboard.
What is the real point of talking about a camera that you have not used yet and then spend the more than 50% of the video about the previous model(s) that have already been covered by so many??? Just create a buzz, become a sticky tape for flies? ;o)
Let us face it this video is a waste of time for everyone involved.
If the X100 series is so good (again, more than 50% of the video) then why the title? The X100-6 (VI) is just its latest iteration, with 40 Mp (that at least allow croppers to crop but also knowing the camera has got a fixed 23 mm lens 40 Mp can palliate that limitation for some).
The difference in price is just a fraction of the total price and offers a new sensor (which is not just more pixel but improved technology) and two major steps I can think of and that makes upgrading reasonable: stabilisation (also welcome with 40 Mp) and better processor which may have some positive consequence on the auto-focus of the X100-5 (none of the X100 generations have really impressed me in that respect). As for the one-SDX-card slot, so fa it has always been the case, nothing new here. Just add it to your wish-list and send it to Fuji that may answer you they want to keep the camera compact and adding stabilisation was more important on many levels than a second slot.
Except for the increased pixel count that you have a problem with (without having used the camera, may I remind ourselves of that fact)-and I would be curious to see compare a billboard shot with a 2 Mp camera and one with a 40 Mp one-all the qualities you mention are on the X100-6 plus IBIS (stabilisation) and faster processor, where is the problem? All the more as there is a demand for X100 models (and why not for a 40 Mp one with stabilisation and faster processor/AF?). Just thinking aloud here I guess.
I was going for the sticky tape/ buzz strategy. Glad you landed in my trap. This video is made to help people who have serious gear acquisition syndrome sit for a second, see some decent photos and help them decide whether or not it’s worth the upgrade. Thanks for watching and leaving a compelling comment 🙏🏼
@@hunterhart1 Yes I have always been a fly in this world, constantly mesmerised by sticky tapes and other gluey or muddy areas, just me I guess. ;o) Your plea for the X100 V was very informed and convincing however the three issues I have had with my X100 V, namely slow and not always efficient autofocus, wanting to use slow shutter speeds (under 1/30 s) without camera/photographer blur, high ISO without too much noise (although some of it with the V can be solved with software) may be resolved by the X100 VI. All of this make it, without GAS, a camera to consider over the X100 VI... just thinking aloud here, for what it is worth... from a fly on a sticky tape ;o)
I think you should make a video Bruno. @@BrunoChalifour
@@hunterhart1 I stay in my place which is being a photographer. It is already a daily job and focus and, most importantly (I think you can relate to that part) it makes me happy and fulfils my creative needs. All the best.
You don't need a dual card slot in 2024. The tech so so good now. It'll never fail. Also any pro - wedding photog is carrying two bodies on themselves.
My A7IV had a card failure last year, My Leica Q had a card failure during a wedding (luckily it only lost about 45 images and it was a second body) I don't think that is great advice to anyone. And yes I carry 2-3 cameras on a wedding day but I don't want to have the chance of a repeat Leica Q failure on a larger magnitude.
@@hunterhart1did the card fail or the reader fail? You should be replacing cards every year or two. I’ve had canon mkIIIs Nikon d810 , z6 and never had a card failure.
You don't need airbags until you have a wreck. The cards failed, one was about two weeks old for the A7IV and the other was probably around a year for the Q. I agree you should buy new cards but just because it hasn't happened to you does not mean it won't happen. Only 2 times out of 12 years of shooting weddings, not bad odds but to promise someone it will not happen if you just buy new cards is not valid information, if that was the case would they even make cameras with two card slots? I hope it never happens to anyone, the likelihood is low... but it can happen @@007bennett
Wow! I can't believe you said" it'll never fail". That could put unexperienced photographers who don't know better into a career ending situation. I use the canon R6 and I have definitely have had a card fail. Sure, it's rare but it does happen. The memory cards are little pieces of plastic. Shit happens and then you're screwed. Redundancy is imperative, especially regarding the wedding photography business. It's always a good idea to have back up cameras, cards, flashes, and everything else. You don't need it until you need it. Sounds like bad advice to me. And yes, tech is really impressive but never flawless and could become damaged or corrupted very easily.
@@saxonwilson917 maybe you should use a proper professional camera like nikon.
Oh I definitely DO need it.
😅 yeah ya do
I just canceled my order 🤦🏻♂️
Really?
@@hunterhart1 Ofcourse!
Do you have an X100 series camera as of now?
@@Ernest_Kahn
@@hunterhart1 Yup! X100T
@@Ernest_Kahn such a great camera! Hope this video inspired you to get out there and use it!
2 megapixels..bullsh..t lol ...Dual card slot..meh never had a card fail. No one wants video we can shoot video on a smartphone lol 😮
The Xt5 sensor is amazing and it gives you the ability to crop.
If they Just went 26mp no one would buy it.
It will be a great camera the x100vi

Yeah it is amazing, who said it wasn’t? I said it’s overkill for a point and shoot camera. And they are targeting this to people who shoot video, so that’s a big reason they put it in there. If card failures don’t happen, why do they put 2 card slots in every professional camera? Thanks for taking the time to comment and watch my video 🙏🏼✌🏼
@hunterhart1 LOL. I'll repeat b*******
....sorry that's utter rubbish 🗑

What your review should have been: th-cam.com/video/yf9h0OghcVg/w-d-xo.html
Woah, this is an X00V discussion. I didn’t review anything. I don’t have the X100VI, didn’t you listen to the first sentence 😅 thanks for watching but I’m not going to recreate someone’s video to appease you Bruno.
@@hunterhart1 Interesting argument for one who titled his video "Don't Fall for the X100VI".. or did I hallucinate ??? ;o) Next time title it "Why the X100 V is a camera to be considered". Didn't you speak your introduction of almost 2 mn about the X100 VI (that you have not used; yes, you mentioned that and I did hear it, thence my puzzlement) and define the goal of the video as being about whether one should upgrade to the X100 VI or not?!? Or again was I hallucinating in which case I definitely need to be "appeased". ;o)
Your first sentence "I have been fortunate enough to have every X100 camera in the line-up until the sixth one which I don't currently have."... and the next one as well as the next 1 1/2 mn are all about the X100 VI and defining the topic of this video as "should you buy the X100-6"... these are just facts and I do n to need to be appeased, thank you. You do your thing (rather well I must say but it does not mean it is perfect, and that listening to justified critiques should be problematic) and I do mine...
@@BrunoChalifour idk what I’d do without you Bruno, oozing with wisdom. Your camera videos are great, thanks for the experienced opinion.
@@hunterhart1 Why should I add to a heap that I find rather indiscriminate? I'd rather teach workshops than produce TH-cam videos for a void, with real human contact and I do not want to become a videographer, I am a photographer... I do not seek to become "an internet influencer" with all that it does imply and that is not always that good. [some of them may have a tendency to take themselves too seriously and stop really and fairly listening. Humility is not the first quality of that world. The fact of having to be constantly present make them rapidly skip stages of learning, information, clear view, critical thinking... to the point of creating misleading title just to attract attention, not very ethical and responsible I have found]. I know where my expertise lies and I work at improving it, every day, without spilling it uncontrolled over the internet. That simple and honest I think (maybe wise too as you seem to acknowledge it ;o) [I do try and keep the impostors at bay and correct misleading information because, over the years, they have had a negative impact on what I do, namely my potential students: I often have to clean their slates of misinformation before they can be open to anything else that is more informed and more honest]. "Oozing with wisdom" I would definitely go that far, just trying to be fair, informed and honest and not venture and have an opinion on things I do not know or master (and yes, it is an daily job ;o)
I would love more info on your workshops because I lead them as well as attend them. Could you drop a website? You have so much to learn from, I would like to look into becoming a student of yours. @@BrunoChalifour
Bro definitely just bought a secondhand x100v for 1800,-
Bro bought his on release date for $1400

Hunter and his gf scammed me of selling their presets..
How was it a scam? Did they not work?
Oh you’re the guy that claims they were stolen from someone else who I eventually looked up and their website was created after my presets. Funny thing is… wouldn’t it be easier for a large creator to knock off a small one and reap the benefits?? Maybe you should take off your rose colored glasses Jia
Hunter and his WIFE are some of nicest and most genuine people you’ll meet. To have the audacity to post something so slanderous is really lame and sad honestly. If you have a problem with him you should probably contact him personally instead of launching attacks behind your keyboard.
