Real photographers use black and white film
Oh god… your right, I for one am ashamed and embarrassed to have been calling myself a photographer all these years. I only hope I can grow from this interaction and correct my devilish ways. THANK YOU
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer And learn how to make a silver gelatin fiber based archivally processed black and white print -ie something that can be passed down many generations.
You are a revolutionary
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer I do both kinds of photography. I owned a 5DMark IV, D750 and D610. Have an Eizo 4k etc erc.I even have a D610 with me today. But to me real photgraphy happens with my Omega Prol Lab 5500 4x5 and Saunders LPL 4500II 4x5 and with Adox and ilford paper
@@andre1987eph I bet you don’t even golden ratio
I purchased a Fujifilm X100F a couple of years ago and once I learned how to use it's plethora of features, I love it. Perfect as an 'everyday carry/travel' camera I bought it for the primary purpose of something easy to carry as an alternative to a bulkier SLR with lenses. For those 'candid snaps' just set it for full auto everything and fire away it will take excellent shots but you have the option of full manual control if you want to get creative or if that's what you're used to (I'm used to manual everything film SLR's). And it has great built-in film simulation choices: want to take a shot in black/white or richer color saturation..just choose those film simulation options from the menu. And it has great close-up capability for tight shots of flowers or whatever. Altogether very pleased with mine.
I had the original X100 in 2012 and sold it at the beginning of 2020. I loved it. I now have a used (but like new) Leica X2 and find it just as much fun as the Fujis, even though it doesn’t have all the extra features of the X100 (video, panoramas, etc.).
Totally agree. I recently bought a second hand X100F as a starter for switching from a Canon full frame equipment to Fujifilm. Totally love my X100F and the image quality is stunning. I'm now also getting a X-E 3 or 4 in order to be able to use a tele zoom. Besides everyday and street photography I do a lot of hiking and mountaineering and need to pack light.
Bought a used x100t 99% looking new, with only 1600 clicks for $400. Jackpot. Amazing camera nothing bad things to say about it, yes it has some limitations but if you don’t know how to work around it then It’s not the cameras fault.
Jackpot indeed! Awesome.
I so want to get one for all the reasons you mentioned. Thanks for the vid!
That motorcycle photo is amazing!
Love that photo of the motorbike in the garage
I was just debating about buying an x100v but you make some valid points!
Nice! Think I preferred your drunk lockdown comparison video 🤣 Picked up the X100V in August for the very same reason, absolutely love it as an everyday, go-anywhere documentary camera. And not having to think about extra lenses etc means I'm shooting more rather than worrying about what other gear I could/should be playing with 👌
Still my favorite camera. Great video Chris
Great detail with syncing the word "like" to the click at 0:36 ! Imma hit that like button:)
Thanks, Chris. I have the Fuji x100T and love it! I have taken the camera on many travels, Greece, Ireland, Iceland, etc and it's really perfect. I see that the 100F has some nice features too. I think it's time to upgrade, with the higher amount of focus points and iso too!
I have the T too since it came out. Really like it and took so many memories with it. It is still in great condition. Few F are up for sale locally, one in absolute mint condition with just some test shots being taken….for 700.- swiss francs. Wonder if it is worth to upgrade. I like to shoot jpegs, and dial in my settings. Just very little post if needed. So I‘d like to have acros b&c sim and the option to add grain as well etc.
Also my T is silver and I wan‘t a black one 😉.
Still unsure whether to upgrade. I like to look of the 16MP sensor. Also still shot my Xpro1 ✌🏻.
But there is something about the X100 line I just love.
Cheers from Switzerland
Great vid... I too like you don't think a cellphone is the best way to document life. Thanks for giving me the all clear to invest in this camera.
Thank you for putting out this video. I thought I was crazy and the only one who had the same thoughts on this camera., I have a Full Frame Nikon, Crop sensor Nikon, multiple lenses and a high end cellphone with an amazing camera on it. I always felt that for everydayat home and some outings, sometimes the DSLR is a hassle, and my Cellphone is not good enough. I bought a Fujifilm X100F to always be around to document everyday family life, a camera easy enough to always be around and that has amazing camera quality. I leave it lying around at home, in my bag when out and about, just because it is so convenient and enjoyable to quickly grab and use.
Incredible. Thank you for sharing insight about your experience and your perspective on the X100F. Definitely considering getting it instead of the X100V.
Both great cameras
Very good video man! I am planning to buy x70 to have something special and compact with me all the time!
This is a very helpful video. I like your style. Thanks!
Nice video with very honest commentary 👍🏼
Super helpful video, thanks mate!
Thanks for the review. Very helpful!
I’ve had an X100F for over a year now and I love it, but a couple of months ago I bought my A7C with a small Rokinon 35 f2.8 and been using it more than my Fuji. I usually shoot raw and due to lockdowns I have plenty of time to edit my pictures. Both are great cameras, it’s just I have more flexibility with the Sony.
I feel you man same here
Wow awesome photos, I’m wanting to upgrade from just using my iPhone. Thanks for the advice. Grateful for finding someone who’s located in Aotearoa too 🥰
You’ll love it such a great camera
I currently have the X100V, and previously the S & T. Love this system of cameras, but if I was recommending one it's hard to go past a second hand X100T/F for the value.
Good man! I’m a Sony / Fuji guy too (A7Riv and X100T). Love the Fuji look almost more than my Sony!
Yep, same! Sony for work, Fuji for play.
The best camera I ever had. Better then my Leica Q2.
great video!
Thanks man!
Thanks for the insight!
Great accompanying shots...inspired me to do more 'personal' storytelling shots. I had the X100T until I sold it and picked up the X100V. Just a great camera. My wife has a Sony RX100v as her walk around, but when I shoot with it, I just don't connect with the picture taking process like I do with the X100 series...
I really want it, but after the X-70, I think I'm going to be snapping with the WCL everyday. 28mm just gives layers and drama that 35mm can't get me all the time. I just wish they had a 2x TCL for the long end. 😉
Shot a couple of Video Portraits on the x100v. Put it on a small gimbal + face tracking and you have a fine video setup.
You can get a lot of details back in their RAW Files and you can get a Cinestill 800t recipe online for film simulations. 😁
agree, i got the ricoh GR -- its AF is really slow and misses but it makes me shoot street with a very stealthy tiny camera.
made me slow down and shoot differently :)
a camera that would not remind me of photography work
Surely you just use the the snap focus then?
Thanks Chris!
Nice video - I’m really “trying” to enjoy taking photos on my phone! LoL - But yeah, just can’t get into it… looking for a good little EDC camera 📷 might have to look at one of these :) Great video man - Now over to EBay for me! Haha 😆
Woo. I'm taking a friend's x100F to a charity ball cos the a7iii and lenses is too big, bulky and intimidating.
I really noticed a difference in how people react to an a7iii, even vs an a6000 with a 24z lens on it.
Torn between picking up a used 100f/100v OR picking up the Samyang 35mm 2.8 for my a7iii to give me a smaller package. I've got the 35mm 1.8 but for real day to day use it'd be nice having a smaller setup - appeal of getting a Fuji means my Sonys can be safe at home and ready to go for shooting and not playing with my settings and forgetting to change them back.
Thanks Chris.
I’ve been on a quest for my ultimate everyday carry camera.... Ricoh gr iii vs x100f vs x100v vs my Xt3 & the new 27mm pancake 😩 lol, you may be swaying me towards the x100f... the only thing that stops me is everyone complaining about the “vaseline” look that you get when shooting up close. Anyway, thanks Chris, another banger 💥
Have an x100v - no vaseline smear here - more expensive, but I prefer it over the F
I dunno what you mean Vaseline look lol sounds sensual tho. Could be into that
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer haha, guess it’s an American phrase 😂. Just means soft up close lol
Ohhh gotcha yeah mine does that. The X100V fixes that. But let’s be honest it’s only real close focus
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer good to know, cheers 🤙🏽
I love my x100f for personal photos!!
Me too!
Wonderful attitude .
Hiya Chris, wicked video had seen this used by a friend and thought... if Chris has done a review on this, it'll be mint. So buzzing you had made one. Quick Q... where do you get your royalty free music from? It's a vibe.
Dub step. Stumble bump. It's over. Looks like the X-M1. I like that sensor.
Great opinion! Both F and V are amazing camera, one stupid thing, you use squarehood or haoge lens hood?
Great review Chris, may I please ask where did you get the rectangular lens hood and will it fit on my x100s?
Great, now I own a x100f based from this video haha
I have a 70D and I’m thinking of upgrading to this. How has the X100F been treating you?
Happy owner of one myself. Also encountered „foggy“ closeups but I rarely need to shoot up close with this camera. I really enjoy this little thing and people seem to be much more ok with being photographed with this compared to a big and scary dslr/dslm. Btw, what’s your lens hood? And thx for the video!
It has a macro mode which helps. Can focus like three or four inches away. Just stop down to f/4 for super close ups. You'll still get the "toneh" from the camera being so close to the subject.
Great review. What lens hood is that you have fitted to your X100F?
I’m still rocking my 100s
Same for me with my X100T, which I bought new when first released.
One of my buddies upgraded his mirrorless rig and sent me his X100s in excellent condition. Now, I rarely use my Sony or Canon. I too really connected with the X100S...Fuji’s image sensor is amazing.
So was I until I dropped and killed it :-(. the V is wonderful, though
Found a secondhand X100S for $175 locally with a stuck viewfinder curtain (seems to be a known issue.) Meeting the guy tomorrow, even if I can only use the screen I’m still excited for an everyday carry that’s more sensible than my XT3 and a bag of lenses.
At that price you’d be crazy not to buy one
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer It’s done! Gorgeous, gorgeous camera and so excited to keep it around for situations where I don’t want to bring my full system. Now to try some of the “fixes” for my issue without breaking it :P
Have 3 Fuji cameras. But my Leica Q is my preferred to go camera. Find one used - you will love it. ;)
What are your reasons for Q preference Jan? Weighing that and X100V up at the moment!
@@chaztical well for me - the fantastic mechanical lens, and the sensor. I just love the easy way to zone focus. The focus by wire on the Fujis are not good for manual focusing and zone focusing. The x100v is a great camera though. Just a matter of taste. But the f/1.7 on that full frame sensor is magic... ;) Btw, the AF also works so much better on the Leica. Never misses when using the center point. And I also like 28mm a bit more than 35mm.
@@JJ_Photo Thanks Jan, super helpful!
Cheap now. I bought it when it came out for $1300. Not cheap. Actually sorta upset that the price dropped so much in 4 years. It’s a great camera and deserves some value retention.
it’s something about fujis that have that fine line of film but digital
I have the X100V and I don’t really consider it a everyday carry camera because of its size. I also have the Ricoh GR 3 and it is a camera that will fit in almost any pocket.
xf10! You can buy only second hand, but that'a an every day camera for peanuts and awesome!
Just out of interest: why do you have a Ricoh GR and a Fuji? Isn’t it a bit superfluous?
Hi Chris, just buy one on ebay today . Do you use back button focus with this camera? Thanks for your great review.
I don’t i find it a bit awkward. I just use AF-S and single point. I’m never in a hurry with this camera so its fine
This is the perfect camera to document your life , iPhone camera is good and enough for some people I just don’t like the “soulless” pictures , unrealistic HDR, and awful skin tones of iPhone camera , get this 😀 or a used x100F, I’m waiting for mine straight from Japan.
Hallo. What's the hood on the camera? Thanks
What about iphone - for personal everyday usage?)
what about 100t? Do you think it is worth to upgrade? I love my 100t but focus is not always accurate
Yeah X100T to X100F is worth it I think
You dint upload your full review of XE4
Hey Chris, what strap are using for your F in this video?
I wondered that too! It's exactly what I've been looking for
as someone who owns and loves both, the ricoh GR is a lot better for everyday carry than the x100 IMO
What about a Sony A7C with the kit lens for compactness?
...assuming that the A7C price is not an issue.
Chris - do you have issues with the AF on this camera? I struggle with mine
Depends what you expect I guess. It focuses as well as I would expect for what it is
xf 16 1.4?
Hey Chris did your 14mm GM Video get deleted or is that still coming?
The live one got deleted. The audio was driving me mental lol but I’m making another one tomorrow
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer looking forward to it, keep up the great work, cheers!
Definitely loved my x100f for a little over a year until the aperture blades stuck at f4. Fujifilm customer service is terrible. You would expect a $1200 camera to last more than a year without a $600 repair. I wouldn't waste my money on another Fuji fixed lens camera.
may i know the song used in this video
I prefer the RX1 as every day camera...and that fullframe look🤩
oof man why you make me want to spend money every time i watch
😂
Same 😂
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer I bought an x100f... thanks
I love the idea of having a camera with me at all times, but in the real world I never use it. My sold X100, Ricoh GRii, X-T1 and X-T30 know it. Maybe I'm lazy. I prefer using my iPhone for everyday stuff. Even while traveling. But when I have an specific thing I want to document, I jump to my full frame cameras.
Any problems with dust inside the viewfinder or on the sensor?
Not that I can see, I’ve heard of that issue though
Glad to hear. Just picked up a used one myself and unfortunately the viewfinder is full of dust and there's also dust on the sensor that shows up as spots on the images.
In terms of presets, do you only use your Fujifilm presets for photos you've taken with the X100F/V? Or do you also use your V1 and V2 packs?
@@zeppelin2a nah I use the V2 presets on them, I tend to use them for everything to be honest. Sometimes V1 (CTM2)
I like my X100F but it's too big for everyday carry in my opinion. I would go for a Ricoh GR for that purpose.
The X100V is anything but cheap at the moment
I have the total opposite opinion about these two cameras--I bought the X100F used to save money, but I don't really like it. I feel like I might enjoy the X100V though.
My biggest problem is the quality of the lens. I like to shoot 35mm lenses wide open, and often pretty close to my subject, and the X100F lens just can't handle it. Crazy ghosting. Also, backlighting has ruined a lot of nice shots for me.
I'm thinking about selling and buying either a GRIII or an X100V. My main body is Sony, an A7III.
The articulated screen ruins the whole idea of this camera I feel. F it is!
It may be a good camera, but I do not think it is cheap nor compact, I will rather have a Ricoh GR/GRII/GRIII or a Sony 6xxx-series camera or just use my iPhone.
It’s cheaper than a GRiii by miles, about the same price as a GRii and almost the same size as a 6xxxx series camera, smaller with a lens
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer in Europe a Fujifilm X100V = 1400 Euro, Ricoh GRIII = 830 Euro, so I will repeat my first comment ;)
@ Camera Prepper the video is about the 100F not the 100V and I don't know where in Europe you are but I have seen the 100F new for 850 euro and near perfect secondhand for less than 600 euros. I agree the Ricoh is more compact but it does not have a viewfinder. In the end use what works for you.
@@mdw1927 OK, but the headline shows "Fuji X100F X100V", the prices of the 100V and GRIII are new cameras, I haven´t found new prices of the 100F, but no matter if the Fuji´s are new or secondhand, at least here in Europe Fuji are too expensive for what you get.
Here in the US , Ricoh GR III it’s $900 if you are a smart guy you can get the X100v , for $1200, i wanted to buy the Ricoh GR but , x100v has unique features that I really like :
-weatherproof
-EV
-Included ND filter
-I like Fuji lens better( f2.0, 35mm equiv.) sharper
-better battery life
-the new flexible screen
-The jps are amazing straight from camera
-The leaf shutter
I’m a x100 fan since the first model, and I know this not important but I like “made Japan” legend on the back of the screen.
It’s a great camera ! I think it’s worth it’s price !
I love my iPhone but I won’t use it to document important things in life.
Sorry, but these two are not cheap walk arounds. Otherwise fantastic cameras
Give us a better option then
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer that's the problem.1000€ walk around camera. Otherwise second hand market with first gen x100 and so on
Ok so you complain about the video but don’t have a solution? The X100F is cheaper than an iPhone, cheaper than a Sony point and shoot, you can’t give a better option, so it must be a cheap option, unless you mean it’s not cheap to a loaf of bread maybe?
Also they aren’t $1000 euros you can get one for half that.
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer why are you so aggressive in the comments? You seemed like such a nice guy on the video.
@@sergiofartlips wouldn’t call that comment aggressive. He’s just breaking your balls a little. I wouldn’t even call it mean spirited.
I'm confused, is ~$1000 really cheap in New Zealand? 😅
No it is not . I’m from Canada and our exchange is almost same last time I check . For a used x100f I have seen one as $900 for a mint condition .. $1000 is ok but not considered cheap yet
@@blueskies650 Ok, thank you)
I just got one with 1700 shutter count for $740 and all the accessories
Cheap?
There’s always one of these comments 😂
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographerI think there talking about your haircut.
Why do you say it's a 35mm focal point? Looking at tge specs i only see that it has a 23mm lens
if you don't want large prints, your iphone pro 12 max is enough. A guy compared iphone 11 pro with a $5000 dslr and you couldn't tell the difference. If you got money to spend, then buy both
yeah its very cheap, very very very
Not really cheap. 1000 dollar for second hand in 2023...
Cheap?!
You got the wrong hobby. Move on
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer dang, I enjoyed your video but this is a really snobby gatekeeping attitude. Bummer.
@@dizzytel I’m sick of the same comment over and over. Just how it is
@@ChrisTurnerPhotographer there's some really good photographers that use very inexpensive cameras. Cheap was the wrong word even use. The camera is not cheap is not built cheap less-expensive? more affordable? Your personalities cheap.
