the way this under 13 minute video explains SO MANY photography concepts i learned about but never fully grasped is incredible! david's got a really knack for explaining things :D
i love how the studio channel is changing into the team reviewing the gadgets that they are passionate about with main channel production quality! Lovely animations in this one!
Came for a review of the X100VI, stayed for the Kodak vs Fuji history channel and the tutorial on how colors work on our retinas in super stylized motion graphics. That's a LOT of work for just one video, man ! Awesome job ! That's an instant sub, right there !
These camera impressions/review videos David's doing for this channel are so insanely good. I have never really even thought of getting into photography as a hobby but every time I watch one of these videos it makes me want to go buy a camera and just start shooting.
I've watched a ton of X100VI videos over the past few days, but this is one of the best. Most other videos concentrate on just the specs, or the differences from the X100V, but you actually going into the details of why someone might want a Fujifilm camera, and then more specifically this one, I found more meaningful and impactful. I'm already sold, I already pre-ordered one from B&H on release night - but if I hadn't, you'd have sold me!
Also note: The x100VI can output 16bit tiffs as RAW conversion files. That’s big for me as I use the fuji x RAW software to output their film sims faithfully, usually with any exposure and WB adjustments or corrections. Then I use LR to mask and create grads. Now I can do that on converted Tiffs instead of jpgs!
Wow! This is easily one of the most informational and well put together camera reviews I've ever watched and I've watched 100s of them over years. The simplicity of the explanations and the graphics integrated in the video. Insanely impressive! Loved it:)
You have a gift for explaining things in the most incredibly easy to follow way. The editing and graphics in this video are of course helpful too, and so well executed. Well done.
This is exactly why I got an XT5. I saw the hype with the x100v so got a retail price XT5 when they came out. I love taking photos but I cannot be bothered with post processing. I've not got time for that. I took a recent trip to canada and I was staggered by every single photo I took, every single one looked amazing. Most of the time people are just uploading them to instagram (myself included) so being able to just immediately upload a jpeg without fuss is a great bonus.
This is one of the best camera review I have ever seen, if not the best. So informative and thoughtful, need to see more camera reviews/photography discussions from David.
Wow David, this has to be one of the most impressive camera reviews I've come across online. The level of technical detail and the presentation are truly exceptional. You should consider reviewing the same products as Marques but in this format.
Excellent breakdown of various nuances that may otherwise get lost among the heif 😬 Great video and also I'm thoroughly enjoying hanging out this week in Tokyo as well 🙌
For as complicated as this kind of stuff gets, this video did a great job of explaining the topics! Although for me the pocket king goes to the Ricoh GR xiii. Love the small form factor
Wow. This wasn't just a great review of a new camera - it's a fantastic high level overview of both past and current photography technology. Well done!
I think I learned more from this video than I would from watching 100 other TH-cam videos. And I’ve been shooting photos since the 1970’s! Very well done and to the point.
I'd love to see more David and Ellis videos, photography and audio are two of my black hole sized money sink hobbies and these videos cater to that so well.
@1:26 don't forget the massive amount of youtube and photography content creator hype. They all scrambled to get their hands on one because having a x100v in the title meant instant clicks.
Thanks, David! I'm most grateful to learn about the HEIF standard because I saw my images in that format, and I was wondering what this new format was, left me a bit confused initially, but this sounds awesome moving forward. I too, dislike editing and have gone as far as to make a ton of presets in Lightroom to work with. Excellent video as always.
I love the nod to and appreciation for the colour scientists. The image compression and explanation of HEIF was also super interesting - appreciate the different angle you take on this camera launch
Another excellent explainer video from David! Really appreciate the motion graphics and sound design that help demonstrate the concepts clearly. That said, I wish there was a segment of film simulation samples that actually show and compare the thesis in the video’s title as to why it’s the internet’s favorite camera.
This channel is quickly becoming my favorite TH-cam channel. The clay analogy is awesome, David’s passion for the camera is contagious, and the animation and style is greatl. I don’t care about this camera, and yet I watched till the end.
I absolutely love the resources you guys put into this video, from the photography of the first frame with David to the animations to explain color science. Go Studio gooo
As a photographer myself, I feel like you're absolutely right. At the end of the day, people just want to capture a vibe. And, these cameras help you do just that. Great video, David!
Who cares when you can’t buy it? I pre-ordered and paid for this camera 4 months ago, the day it was announced, and I still don’t have it. Thanks for the pitch David, but you should rethink your association with this terribly disappointing company.
David, thanks. Specifically for addressing: compression, Fuji's film history and encouraging Fuji to consider a full frame sensor. David, your ability to communicate technical information to the masses is incredible.
Seeing all these review for the x100vi makes me want it even less. I do not want a camera that every Tom, Dick and Harry now owns/wants. F fuji and their influencers.
Probably one of the best X100VI videos I’ve seen… and I’ve seen a lot of them. Thanks for taking a different approach on this. Can’t wait for mine to arrive.
WOW. You are a very talented and knowledgeable presenter! For a product-specific video, I agree with others - I learned so much along the way in this video. Well done! (And WHAT a camera! Been eyeing the X100 series off for years!)
This is undoubtly the best video on what this camera and the hype is about. It really gets to the core of what people love about it and the technical history is beautifully explained. Besides that I really love your style of shooting and editing ^^ Thank you for making this awesome video! :3
i’ve used an X10 for years and i love it !! I got used for free and it takes great film simulation photos, it’s not amazing in the dark but its perfect as a bacpacking camera because you’re not afraid to break it, and then you use it more😊 My photography teacher had the X100V and while it is a lot better and newer, it’s also way more expensive. Im definitely going to upgrade when i can afford it but for now the X10 is still a good camera
Love the format - I thought I was about to watch "one more launch review" with specs and Fujifilm marketing pitch, but it was a pleasure to watch , very very instructive and well explained , efficient, great pictures and overall, a very experienced and wise opinion. Thanks a lot and congrats !! 🙂
I appreciate that this is also doubles as a Fujifilm 101 video. I could’ve never contextualized Fuji’s film history so succinctly. It’s hard to explain the “why” with these cameras, but you make it look easy. 👏
@8:25 No. Banding is not caused by the optional 1:4 color channel subsampling (i.e. color spatial resolution loss). It is caused by luma and chroma channel quantization.
David's videos on camera and image concepts are ones I enjoy the most from this channel, huge kudos. And yes, I one of the many who tried to buy an X100V the past year and couldn't find it online 🙃
I love the molding clay analogy for raw vs jpg
Boss here😉
yupp.. Durvid brings out his best when it comes to cameras. well done studio!
You're truly the analogy man
Your last two chapters in this video are not correctly visible.
Thanks dad
The editing/motion graphics of this video is insane
gotta credit the audio too
Didn't expect to see you here Boom
I greatly appreciate that you didn't make this a run of the mill X100VI review. I learned a lot of useful information. Thanks a lot!
the way this under 13 minute video explains SO MANY photography concepts i learned about but never fully grasped is incredible! david's got a really knack for explaining things :D
Thanks for the nod 🤝🤝 great review as always. Your camera reviews are among my favorites
Definitely love having a proper photographer on the team for these reviews! I have been waiting for this camera!
i love how the studio channel is changing into the team reviewing the gadgets that they are passionate about with main channel production quality! Lovely animations in this one!
Came for a review of the X100VI, stayed for the Kodak vs Fuji history channel and the tutorial on how colors work on our retinas in super stylized motion graphics.
That's a LOT of work for just one video, man ! Awesome job ! That's an instant sub, right there !
Killed it David! One of your best camera videos yet!
Lowkey David is the best reviewer on TH-cam. I absolutely love you talking cameras brother.
who the freak did the motion graphics in this vid. unreal

That is so sick! I've always wanted to do that with my Pro2
is the x100vi the first to do that in the fuji line?
@@JacobChristiansen1 xt4 was the first. Xt3 was not updated to do the same despite same sensor and processor.
David you are SOOOO talented in explaining topics u are so clearly passionate about I absolutely love these
Hands down one of the best, down to earth, video about a new camera I've seen. And I've seen A LOT !
Dropped right after the pre orders. Love that David is the camera guy, amazing video!
Wow! This is easily one of the most informational and well put together camera reviews I've ever watched and I've watched 100s of them over years. The simplicity of the explanations and the graphics integrated in the video. Insanely impressive! Loved it:)

This is one of the best camera review I have ever seen, if not the best. So informative and thoughtful, need to see more camera reviews/photography discussions from David.
Wow this is one of the best TH-cam videos I've seen in a while. Marques needs to give David and anyone else who worked on this some love and a raise!
Wow David, this has to be one of the most impressive camera reviews I've come across online. The level of technical detail and the presentation are truly exceptional. You should consider reviewing the same products as Marques but in this format.
Excellent breakdown of various nuances that may otherwise get lost among the heif 😬 Great video and also I'm thoroughly enjoying hanging out this week in Tokyo as well 🙌
Love the style of this review: layedback, movie-like b-roll, lots of pictures and no useless specs. (+10 points for the clay analogy)
I never thought I’d love cameras/photography this much, Thanks David!
This content is so good. From a creative perspective alone, it’s legit. Great job on keeping a geeky subject SUPER watchable.
For as complicated as this kind of stuff gets, this video did a great job of explaining the topics! Although for me the pocket king goes to the Ricoh GR xiii. Love the small form factor
Wow. This wasn't just a great review of a new camera - it's a fantastic high level overview of both past and current photography technology. Well done!
I love everything about this video- the aesthetics, the animations, the explanations and the enthusiasm.
Came for a camera review, ended up learning so much more! Explanation and storytelling is on point 💯
The way you simplified and shared all that information is next to none. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I ended up getting the Ricoh GR III since the X100V has been sold out. Maybe I’ll sell it and buy this 🤔
I felt like I knew a lot about photography and my cameras, but this video was so informative and enjoyable to watch! Thanks David! ❤📸
I think I learned more from this video than I would from watching 100 other TH-cam videos. And I’ve been shooting photos since the 1970’s! Very well done and to the point.
I'd love to see more David and Ellis videos, photography and audio are two of my black hole sized money sink hobbies and these videos cater to that so well.
Whenever David gets a dedicated video, I end up learning about a totally new topic. Love the way you passionately explain things brother.
@1:26 don't forget the massive amount of youtube and photography content creator hype. They all scrambled to get their hands on one because having a x100v in the title meant instant clicks.
Dude, what an incredible summation...fantastic video.
pre-ordered mine and I am SO excited. wanted an X100V but was not willing to pay the markup to get one second hand. can't wait for it to arrive!
this is so amazing. I cannot believe I didn't find this channel sooner!!!!
Thanks, David!

This video is so good. The information, the graphics, the animations, the transitions, all of it. So. Good.
This was the first thing I've ever pre-ordered. So excited. Seeing this video launch after it was announced made me happy
Easily the most informative camera review and general digital photography video I've ever seen. Love this.
The full production of this video is a huge upgrade from the usual behind the scenes type videos
This channel is quickly becoming my favorite TH-cam channel. The clay analogy is awesome, David’s passion for the camera is contagious, and the animation and style is greatl. I don’t care about this camera, and yet I watched till the end.
Studio fast at it again ❤
I absolutely love the resources you guys put into this video, from the photography of the first frame with David to the animations to explain color science. Go Studio gooo
Ouch, AU$2800 in Australia...
As a photographer myself, I feel like you're absolutely right. At the end of the day, people just want to capture a vibe. And, these cameras help you do just that. Great video, David!
1am upload is wild
Camera embargo was just lifted
what a nice way how you go in depth for this video. providing context and history while you braking down the popularity of this camera series.
People calling X100 pocketable are the same people calling iPad pocketable
The only person fitting it in their pocket is Shaq.
Mostly silly Americans
Same people calling a 2k camera cheap
He did say “jacket pocket”
Classic David video, these are always my favorite kind of video from the studio!
I'm glad it's not Apple's stupid graph.
Wow, fantastic review David!

This is the clearest, most well presented, explanation of RAW vs JPG I've ever seen!

First time watcher here, i love the animations and the informations you gave. Subscribed!
I am so glad I bought the XA10 back at 2017. Good and comfortable camera! Thank you for the explanation!
This video is great; the story is delivered very well; the concepts, the graphics. I really enjoyed it.
This channel is my new favorite channel… kuddos dude!!
Great video about photography, image files, and the hype! Love to see David's passion in the video.
This video was phenomenally made. kudos to everyone involved.
This video was truly amazing. I love the detailed explanation about it and it shows how passionate you guys are about tech and cameras
What an excellent blend of technical detail and comprehensible, succinct explanations. Great video, thank you!
This was a great video! So informative without being condescending! Thank you so much! Looking forward to watching your other content!!!!
Wow. Just brilliant review. I learnt a lot than I was expecting to. Thank you David
i’ve used an X10 for years and i love it !!

always love these camera videos! david always goes into the interesting details
One of the best videos about fuji that ive seen nowadays
@8:25 No. Banding is not caused by the optional 1:4 color channel subsampling (i.e. color spatial resolution loss). It is caused by luma and chroma channel quantization.
Felt like I went back to school on this, great video !
This was genuinely the most informative video I’ve seen on this camera on all of TH-cam. Fujifilm needs to send you a check after this one. Subscribe.
My man David doing bits. Absolutely stunning video.
I enjoyed watching this every second. Great video!
Best explanation of anything I've heard on youtube in a while
Wow, this is one of the best most interesting camera review/overview videos I’ve seen in a bit! Learned so much. Subbed!
The production quality on this! Even though I came here to watch a review, ended up enjoying it more than a video essay
Love it!! The discussion about JPEG & co was awesome! and so much more than what I expected from the title. Subscribed!
Always love the photography content David! Very informational. I’ve been influenced lol
This is probably the best video that’s gonna be made about this camera (and there’s gonna a billion of em!)
David's videos on camera and image concepts are ones I enjoy the most from this channel, huge kudos.
And yes, I one of the many who tried to buy an X100V the past year and couldn't find it online 🙃
just switched all my sims over to heif bc I've never seen/heard this explained in such an easily digestible way. ty.
Of all the camera videos I've watched, this is my favorite. Excellent presentation ❤
Probably the best X100VI video that came out. Well done! Superb production quality and tons of knowledge. Go David!
The way you explain complex concepts in simple analogies and terms is always impressive! Always enjoy your camera videos.
Loved the explanation. Knew what raw was for all this time but never fully understood it. Keep these videos coming.
Amazing video guys ❤❤❤ David passion for this stuff is uncanny. 😍😍😍
