The price difference comes with the hybridviewfinder(very expensive to build) a combination of ovf and evf, the inbuild 4 stop nd filter, the weather resistance and the Leafshutter also u get get a new 23mm markII lens on the V so its worth every penny against the Xe-4 . This two cameras are very different tools. Nice Greetings !
I am the perfect audience for this video lmao I’m about to pick one of these cameras up and was hoping you’d do something like this. Love you moment 💛🥰
I would add that there is more of a learning curve with the X100V. I own it and have owned the original + T & F. I’ve owned X-E1, 2, & 3. You can geek out with the X100 line and it can be complex. Also, if you don’t plan to use the OVF on the X100 you’re paying ‘extra’ for that. You do get flash with the X100 .. pre-3 flash was on the X-E bodies. If new to Fuji or photography I would recommend the X-E. I love my X100 .. but it took some time to ‘learn’ it.
@@maliedivine I’m leaning heavy the X-E4 for the interchange lens. I have an X-T4 now, but this has such a nice form factor, something I could just slide in a pocket on my backpack and bring out easily
Love your very last point. In Fuji's line up, you dont have to worry about image quality. Its spectacular in any of the past 2 gens of fuji cameras. You only have to think about ergonomics for your style of shooting or needs. I own an xt3 for video and interchangeable lenses needs. And an x100v for my love of photography and compactness everywhere i go while being weathersealed.
This video tipped my scale if only so slightly for the xe-4. I can see myself months from now wanting the versatility of changing lenses. More affordability helps too.
Well, folks, I changed my mind at the last minute and went for the x100-v. Reality set in knowing I don’t want to go back to the hassle of bulky kits and changing lenses. The x100v inspires true photography. Can’t go wrong with either one.
@ricardof.casellas665 In my humble opinion, the X100V is a perfect camera system for street and travel photography. The only issue I have with the X100V is my being restricted to just one focal length. The X-E4 solves that issue, but it lacks some of the really nice features of the X100V. So, maybe I should buy both and carry two camera bodies? 🤔
Yeah I agree there, I’m also thinking of returning and changing but the flash and quiet shutter are deal breakers for me since I changed from fashion/people shots to street and nature but still some fashion just not all the time as I used to. I wanted better video quality and exchangeable lenses but then I thought well for vintage type video I don’t think it matters and I can kinda live with not being able to zoom or maybe I try those conversion lenses but the x100v is just a really good package for photography which will be my main focus.
Great video! I love the look of the x-e4! I’ve always wanted a camera without a grip. Most of my film cameras don’t have a grip ans I love using them. I have the x-e3 and I love it but I think Fuji outdid themselves with this model. Anyways, I loved the video and the pictures were really great as well!
Me too! I had the original X100 and aside from the slow focus, I got really tired of only being able to use it half the time due to rain. BTW: I'm from Victoria and I always call it the Pacific Southwest since it's southern Canada. :-)
The lack of weather-sealing is what really crosses out the XE4 for me. Right now, the only way to get weather-sealing is to go with the fixed lens X100V or to step up to more money for an XT4 or XPro3. A consumer level rangefinder-styled compact camera with weather-sealing would be the perfect travel companion.
Yesterday, I shot with my X100V out in the snow for about 4 hours. It was covered in rain and slush pretty much the whole time, and it worked perfectly.
@@noahbealand Do you have the lens filter for weather sealing? Tbh most cameras are designed to be used outside anyway so will be fine when exposed to the elements a little.
Thanks for the video! Decided to go with the X100V when I learned that it has a digital teleconverter for 50mm and 70mm (now working with RAW as well) 🙌
@@connorazzarello5514 Not really an expert on the subject here, but in some earlier firmware digi-teleconverter was only available for jpgs - that changed in a firmware update little over a year ago (now also raw+jpg). The thing is that it is _not_ cropping the image but there’s some digital manipulation and optimization going on as well. Some kinda revolutionary feature. In fact there was a TH-cam video where someone compared and a physical teleconverter to the digital one: the digital was sharper.
Don’t you loose detail when doing that? I tried it and it looked the same like cropping into an image in post compared to having a zoom lens so I’m avoiding it from now on, a lot of the time I’m able to get close. I did in a stunning location of cliffs and in the end it wasn’t worth to zoom cause the image captured the entire field and it looked nicer without but maybe I try it again when needed or get a conversion lens, hopefully they have zoom.
I can't stop going back and forth with these cameras. Each has features I love that the other doesn't have. At this point I'll probably just pickup whichever one is in stock first.
Good discussion of what they both offer! I have the X100V and think the video is amazing quality, though to hear some people, it's a mistake to consider it for video. Why not? The video quality is great. But, interchangeupable lenses and a flip-up screen, ummmmmm, I'm thinking of trading down!!! LOL. The Fuji X100v is such a beautiful camera, it'd be hard to part with. Decisions!
i'd definitely pick the x-e4 if i could afford it. I wanna switch from lumix to fuji so it might be the camera that switch to even tho the xt3 was more my style the xs10 was more versatile. I just didn't like the look but this feels like it's a prefect mix of everything. I wish it had ibis but it's not the worst thing to happen.
Awesome video! Thank you so much. I was thinking about getting a x100v, but I like the idea of being able to change lenses without having to compromise on the size.
I would say the "big brother" of the X-E4 is the X-T4, not a fixed lens camera like the X100V. That said, the X-E4 can function just like the X100V; slap on a prime like the 27mm pancake, and just leave it on there permanently. But the X100V cannot be like the X-E4--you cannot change lenses to suit your needs, which severely limits you with shooting video and can even hamper you a bit with still photography. If you simply want to buy a camera and be done with it, the X100V is pretty much the best deal out there. If you want to go beyond that and try different lenses, shoot short films/video, etc. I'd recommend the X-E4.
Either my FBI agent works for Moment or y’all are on point. I have a canon eos r but I’ve been super interested in Fuji. Either of these two cameras have been on my radar. The E4 feels like the one for me.
I had the EOS R, but I had it stolen on Dec 30th, what a way to start the year right? I’ve been looking into Fuji.. X100V seems like a beautiful choice, but maybe this E4 could do it?
Nice video. Subscribed. I currently have X-E3, and had X-E1. I like this line of Fuji cameras. One thing to note, on the X-E4 they removed the back dial and a couple of other function buttons. The thumbstick is now very low and back is very minimal looking without the other buttons. I'm not sure if I'll get an X-E4, or a different model.
Looks great but now I'm confused. Why buy this over the X-T30 for instance ? The price is around the same. in fact the X-T30 is cheaper where I am ... approx $650 - $750 body only depending on deals, or around $950 - $1000 with the XF 18-55mm. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on an X-T30 and now I'm not sure. Sorry if this question is a bit dumb, this will be my first Fuji cam.
Good question, it comes down to your preference. What stands out to you? Does budget matter? Does style matter and button layout? Again, image quality isn't an issue with Fuji APS-C sensors - they are all really good and preform the same, relatively speaking.
@@moment Thanks for the answer. To be honest the cost is about the same for both cams, so it isn't a question. I guess I need to do some research on the usability differences between the two. I do love the Fuji old-school button layout with ISO, shutter, aperture and exposure comp. Aside from that I just want something small and light that I can throw in a shoulder bag for street, travel, family/kids stuff. I got so tired of carrying round a huge heavy backpack full of Canon gear, so a small Fuji with a 27mm pancake. the 18-55mm for travel, and maybe one longer lens addd later and I'm happy. Up until now Ive been really confused which Fuji to go for, what with the X-T3 coming down in price and the X-T20 still being a great budget option, the X-S10, and now this ! Anyway, you don't have to answer. Guess it's up to me to do some digging and make a decision. The problem now all stores are closed, is not being able to go to a camera shop and physically feel how they are to hold in the hand. I've got quite big hands and I heard a few people say they don't get on well with the size of the X-T30.
@@cryptotrader2779 One of the great things about Fuji is that they put the same sensor and (almost) the same software into all the models, so your choice is more about body style. Simply choose the body you like.
Reaaaaally contemplating eventually trading in the x100v for that set up down the road for the versatility of being able to change out lenses. I loveeeee the V but definitely miss changing lenses.
Great review, Joshua! Fantastic photos. That 27mm F2.8 R WR is shaaaaAAARRRRRRRRPPPpppppp! Can't wait to get mine. Another thing to add for all those on the fence between these two cameras: The X100V with the adapter ring (AR-X100) and 49mm filter is a fully Weather Resistant setup...but the X-E4 body isn't! So it won't matter if you have a WR lens if you shoot in poorer weather since it won’t be a fully Weather Resistant setup.
any idea what the nearest focus distance is on that X-E4 with the 27 lens? I primarily do product (specifically wrist watch) photography and I like/need to get within 3-5 inches.
Put my life savings into buying a Fujifilm X100F and It got stolen from my hotel room in chicago! :,( I had to get another Fuji so I opted for the cheaper X-T100. Its a great little camera but I am saving up for the Xpro3
It's not to say it's better, its just a difference style and "features". It's the same sensor in both cameras. And X100V is weather sealed. So it's up to you to know what you need..what stands out you?
If you don't need to change lenses and are happy with 23mm (35mm equiv), the X100 is the superior camera. Fantastic lens, leaf shutter, nd filter, much bigger viewfinder, optical viewfinder, weather sealed with optional adaptor/filter, on board flash (can come in handy sometimes)... just off the top of my head.
@@d2mini I really can't decide between the two. I need a small camera for travel and the X100V seems perfect - but the option to take a longer lens occasionally makes the X-E4 really tempting. Difficult choice.
Great review, however I was hoping you would compare the eye relief and evf size differences. I really want to hear how it compares to the x100v which is already kind of small but I’ve been hearing that the x-e4’s evf is smaller?
@@GrahamConnor but the thing is I do! 😭 I already have the x100v and love it but once I heard about the X-E4 was announced I started thinking about a range finder style Fuji camera that has interchangeable lens capabilities. So I was looking into the X-E4 or the X-Pro3 but ended up going with the X-Pro3 because of the weather resistance and the experience of using the pro3. The reviews I was watching said the view finder on the X-E4 is smaller than the x100v and I can’t really see myself getting a camera with a smaller viewfinder than the x100v already has.
I´m a bit lost... I like shooting a lot of street photography, fashion photography in the streets or studio, and video but I priorize photography. I was thinking about picking up the x-t3 or x-e4. What are your thoughts?
The X-E4 will do nothing to improve your product photography over the D3200. Don't waste you money. You would be far better using the money on a better lens or better lighting. This is coming from somebody who has the X-E4. It is an excellent camera but I have no idea why you think you need it over your D3200 for product photography. Oh and the X100V is *definitely* not for you.
I miss Chicago! Used to stay at the Hard Rock you showed. Never saw the bean with so few people there! I seem to want this camera. I feel more comfortable walking around with that style vs an XT model. The grip will not be included. The front grip and thumb grip will cost us an extra $200!
I’m torn between both cameras! I love to shoot documentary/ mundane/ street photography but I love “small things” that have multifunctional uses. Help, moment!
Yep my thoughts too. Not sure why reviewers overlook certain specs. I din’t care about specs as much but if you’re portraying yourself as a reviewer on TH-cam then they can’t overlook certain specs.
I just want a tiny ILC with weather sealing, but the only option is the Olympus E-M5.3, which is made out of plastic and has micro-USB. Had hoped the X-E4 could be it, but now I'm unsure of whether to go for it anyway, or wait and hope for a WR GX10.
I've seen mixed reviews of how long you can record videos on this before it overheats. Any idea about that? I know that the S10 is overall a better package for hybrid use, but I like the E4s styling and design and it does pack almost the same punch (specs, sans IBIS) and hence bit the bullet. Waiting for it to be delivered.
I really want the X-E4... love how I can change the lens and it’s not too high up there in price. What other lens would be perfect for this camera if I’m looking to use it for video? I’m a beginner by the way.
The 18-55 kit lens from Fuji is a great lens - even for a starting kit lens! It's not a fast lens but it's really good quality. The 23mm f/2 is affordable lens and the 50mm f/2
It could be white balance, film simulation or any number of other camera settings. Of course other than lens the X100V and X-E4 are identical in terms of image output.
Great video. I don’t see how this is a ranger finder because I own the original X100 because that camera isn’t a “Range finder”.did you mean it’s just “Range finder” view finder layout and styling?
Are there two different versions of the 27mm? I've seen another review of a fuji 27mm pancake lens without the aperature ring. What am I missing? I like the video. Thanks!
@@juliciaf7208 After deliberating between the E4 and S10 for weeks, I finally ordered the E4. It's the rangefinder styling/design that got me intrigued. Yes, I'll miss IBIS, but there's the 18-55!
I always love the classic look of the Fuji's camera bodies, and their film emulations. Love the review, as usual!
Thanks for watching Gil!

It's not to say it's better, its just a difference style and "features". It's the same sensor in both cameras. And X100V is weather sealed. So it's up to you to know what you need..what stands out you?
If you don't need to change lenses and are happy with 23mm (35mm equiv), the X100 is the superior camera. Fantastic lens, leaf shutter, nd filter, much bigger viewfinder, optical viewfinder, weather sealed with optional adaptor/filter, on board flash (can come in handy sometimes)... just off the top of my head.
@@d2mini +more dials
@@d2mini I really can't decide between the two. I need a small camera for travel and the X100V seems perfect - but the option to take a longer lens occasionally makes the X-E4 really tempting. Difficult choice.
Me: wow both these cameras look so cool and have great specs too
My wallet: how about no
Great review, however I was hoping you would compare the eye relief and evf size differences. I really want to hear how it compares to the x100v which is already kind of small but I’ve been hearing that the x-e4’s evf is smaller?
If you don't own a rangefinder already, XE4 will be fine.
@@GrahamConnor but the thing is I do! 😭 I already have the x100v and love it but once I heard about the X-E4 was announced I started thinking about a range finder style Fuji camera that has interchangeable lens capabilities. So I was looking into the X-E4 or the X-Pro3 but ended up going with the X-Pro3 because of the weather resistance and the experience of using the pro3. The reviews I was watching said the view finder on the X-E4 is smaller than the x100v and I can’t really see myself getting a camera with a smaller viewfinder than the x100v already has.
Love the Jill Scott cameo...GOLDEN!!!!
I'm glad SOMEONE caught that 🙌🏽🎶
I´m a bit lost... I like shooting a lot of street photography, fashion photography in the streets or studio, and video but I priorize photography. I was thinking about picking up the x-t3 or x-e4. What are your thoughts?
3:57 - Love that sound 🤣
how do you get that warmer black and white photos?
You can change the white balance shift values.
How have I not seen any of Joshua’s videos up to this point!? So good. Also convincing. He just put a hole in my wallet 😂
Do you recommend one of this cameras for product photography? I already use a Nikon D3200 so, would’ve a huge step forward?
The X-E4 will do nothing to improve your product photography over the D3200. Don't waste you money. You would be far better using the money on a better lens or better lighting.
This is coming from somebody who has the X-E4. It is an excellent camera but I have no idea why you think you need it over your D3200 for product photography.
Oh and the X100V is *definitely* not for you.
I miss Chicago! Used to stay at the Hard Rock you showed. Never saw the bean with so few people there!
I seem to want this camera. I feel more comfortable walking around with that style vs an XT model.
The grip will not be included. The front grip and thumb grip will cost us an extra $200!
I have a X-E3 and a X100F. I just need that new 27mm with an aperture ring.
i wanted 100v but i like changing the lens ;-) I buy it E4
You said the grip is included in the box? I don’t think so that’s an optional accessory
Even cheaper for students , around $750 :) . REALLY nice package for that price !
Do you think the XE3 thumb rest and hand grip will fit the XE4?
Does anyone know if the XE 4 can be used as a webcam?
What was that cinema lens?
Hi Moments, I know the EVF is small, but is it usable? I mean is it OK
I’m torn between both cameras! I love to shoot documentary/ mundane/ street photography but I love “small things” that have multifunctional uses. Help, moment!
XE4 is great for doc/street? The 41mm equivalent lens is a great focal length if you go for that as a prime.
x100v can also record 10bit 422 externally.
Yep my thoughts too. Not sure why reviewers overlook certain specs. I din’t care about specs as much but if you’re portraying yourself as a reviewer on TH-cam then they can’t overlook certain specs.
what cinema lens did you use with e-x4 in this video?
I just want a tiny ILC with weather sealing, but the only option is the Olympus E-M5.3, which is made out of plastic and has micro-USB. Had hoped the X-E4 could be it, but now I'm unsure of whether to go for it anyway, or wait and hope for a WR GX10.
Depends what you mean by "tiny". The X-Pro 2 and 3 is WR.
I've seen mixed reviews of how long you can record videos on this before it overheats. Any idea about that?
I know that the S10 is overall a better package for hybrid use, but I like the E4s styling and design and it does pack almost the same punch (specs, sans IBIS) and hence bit the bullet. Waiting for it to be delivered.
the xe 4 with a leaf shutter and a built in flash would be for me...
Awesome comparative between theses 2 great cameras.
What Cine lens was attached to the XE4?
I think I’m picking one up (in black)
I really want the X-E4... love how I can change the lens and it’s not too high up there in price. What other lens would be perfect for this camera if I’m looking to use it for video? I’m a beginner by the way.
The 18-55 kit lens from Fuji is a great lens - even for a starting kit lens! It's not a fast lens but it's really good quality. The 23mm f/2 is affordable lens and the 50mm f/2
@@moment Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll take a look at those lenses. Awesome video and content, I’ll always come back for more.
Love the sexy lines of this camera, looks good and versatile at the same time!
Completely agree!
When I look at the field of view example the colours of the x100v have a more true reproduction of colour. How come?
It could be white balance, film simulation or any number of other camera settings. Of course other than lens the X100V and X-E4 are identical in terms of image output.
Nice colors!
Are you mkbhd brother.. you have similar voice and body language, actually that makes me feel like i know you or familiar
His voice and mannerisms are so similar to MKBHD!
Can you get a monochrome view in the EVF?
Great video. I don’t see how this is a ranger finder because I own the original X100 because that camera isn’t a “Range finder”.did you mean it’s just “Range finder” view finder layout and styling?
Wish the 27 would be an F2 so much!
But I guess it couldn’t be a pancake if it was... reason why I love the X100 series
How is the EVF while wearing glasses?
Are there two different versions of the 27mm? I've seen another review of a fuji 27mm pancake lens without the aperature ring. What am I missing? I like the video. Thanks!
Just recently a new 27mm was released with an aperture ring and weather resistance, but besides that they're the same optics.
Maaan. I got to CHI every winter for fun and im so jealous. Covid really got in the way.
Does the X-E4 have IBIS?
Greaaat content otherwise, as usual 😊
No it does not have IBIS.
You can check out the X-s10, it has the same features + IBIS.
@@user-ji1sp7mn3l Yeah I've been looking it up for a while now, might try this little one instead thanks 😊
@@juliciaf7208 After deliberating between the E4 and S10 for weeks, I finally ordered the E4. It's the rangefinder styling/design that got me intrigued. Yes, I'll miss IBIS, but there's the 18-55!
nice background music
The next x100 will have ibis which the next xe won't likely have or it will be too close to xs-1 and xt line.
bleach bypass on the xe4 is the only advantage for now unless they offer an update to the film simulation.
Thank you so much for the information Joshua Martin! Just got a question, if I want to use them for landscape photography, which would be better?
