Nope. Wrong reason to save yourself. x100F has been around $800-1k since 2021. Pretty sure youd know that if you did even a little research. I for sure know since I got a secondhand x100t for $600 just this May.
@@grendellebasa5366 Okay, you have a point, lol... I didn't realize the camera was that old. 😭 Is it at least as good as the latest tech, or is it outdated?

If you guys saw the price tag, here’s an alternate recommendation that will cost you half the price: Fujifilm XE-2 with a Fujifilm XC 35mm lens - This kit produces very solid, film-like images, albeit with an older sensor, at a fraction of the price. I’ve had my XE-2s for two years now and it’s my favorite general purpose/ travel/ street camera.
@@angelbarrientos9007 I can think of a few reasons, a) Film cameras aren't as cheap as they were 5-6 years ago, b) Having a cost-per-frame is a hurdle for a lot of people, especially as the price & availability of film itself has been shaky over the past couple years, c) It can be time consuming, whether that's driving back & forth to your lab or doing the processing & scanning at home, d) There are benefits, particularly for beginners, to having immediate feedback regarding exposure/focus/composition
The successor to the X100F is the X100v, which is THE hardest to find camera out right now. As a result, the X100F is going up in the used market precisely because people are sick and tired of waiting for the new one.
the X100 series has INSANE value retention - meaning the resale value is so high because they havent lost their value. These cameras are probably some of the greatest cameras ever released. It completed changed how I shoot and I sold off all my FF Nikon gear to switch to Fuji because of it. If you haven't shot with one of these - GET ONE. Borrow, rent, buy...just try one. Any of the generations.
@@Glyphry Everyone likes to talk about how you can get “just as good” results from a cheap camera you get from the flea market. Almost every photography “expert” on TH-cam will say that a cheap camera is just as good. But actions speak louder than words. If you look at the gear of people who actually take photos professionally it’s almost always a full frame camera with professional quality glass (costs a hell of a lot more than 1600). Anyone shooting with a cheap camera is either being sponsored by the manufacturer or they’re not shooting seriously (doing it as a challenge).
that's what i'm currently considering. The price for these fuji used and even old cameras are kind of insane. If you had to get only 1 as a beginner, do you think the zf is worth it? I'm afraid I wouldn't be good enough to appreciate the features of it compared to zfc, but at the same time I like the idea of full frame and growing into the zf longer term.
@@Drehirth I absolutely can recommend either one of these cameras. Obviously price might be the dealbreaker. I bought my Zfc in almost new condition used for less than $1000. The Zf cost me $2000. The cameras are similar, but obviously the Zf has more features and is more rugged. For a beginner it probably makes more sense to buy the Zfc. You won’t be disappointed. But if you have the money, I recommend the Zf right off the bat.
Thanks to videos like this, the prices of all X100 variants are not "pretty cheap" .... If you want something cheap, the the XE-1, XE-2 or XM-1 and a XC 18mm f2 is are great value.
For a while photography was a niche enough and beginners could get a great deal on a used mirrorless camera and old film lenses were dirt cheap, then content “creators” needed a way to muster up views. For awhile lenses have been skyrocketing and thanks to a few “creators” the prices of stuff that was junk not even a year ago has become unaffordable. I’d rather watch photography channels that actually take photos rather than channels that talk about gear and nothing but, while never showing anything from these “great” cameras.
The x100f is one of their most popular cameras, it easily goes for way over $1000 now, recommend a Canon T series or something that’s actually “affordable” for a beginner.
I love the affordable $600 camera!!!! There are so many cheap apsc DSLR switch suit really good raw for like $200, you can literally get presets online for Film emulation
All 6 of the X100s are great but these and the X-Pro series hold their value ridiculously well, even the first generation models go for $500+ generally, and the are are well used 13 year old cameras!
If you guys still looking for a fuji after checking the price of the X100F Go check the rest of the x100 series Or the X-M and X-E series (but keep in mind this two are usually sold without a lense) X-A series are way cheaper but I'm not sure if they have the film simulation mode Also, never tried one before, but I've heard that Micro4/3 cameras can also achieve that grainy vintage look
I'm new to photography in general, and I have a question. Is it possible to create this film effect with another digital camera? I'm planning to get a Canon r50 second-hand, because I've been told that it is good for both video shooting and photos. Any other camera recommendations would be great also, if it is not possible to capture the film effect with this.
If you get the original X100 or the second one, the X100S you can get a really good deal. I recently sold my X100F bought in Feb 2019 for more than what I had then paid for it.
Save your dough and get the T-2, or for 200 more, get the X-H1 with battery grip. (Used, of course, from quality people) My H1 cost me 700. Local. No tax, no shipping. Hopefully the release of the newer models means people will be selling these. I have the T-2 and X-H1, and the ibis in the later is a big deal. So is the Excellent EVF and the GREAT grip. Then get a thin wrist strap and ALWAYS use it. Even to the kitchen. Have fun.
Fujifilm stopped producing this camera, so now the pricing is pure supply and demand. With smaller circulation, the price gets pretty hefty as of now. You can get a new one for a little over 2k USD.
Of course! S5, Gx8/9, em5ii, em10iii, M6, (d5500, z50, d610, 7R and silver paint), zve10, a6100/6300/6500, XE3, XA5, XA7, XT200 (+) TTartisans or Sigma or Tamron or any 20....40mm lens
That's like a professional high end digital camera, if you want that proper film look I'd rather go for a digital cameras that is a lot smaller and has a ccd sensor, i dunno if the one you have in this video has thar but I rather use like an old digital camera from like the 2000s or early 2010s that still give you that 2000s film look that you're going for, I say the quality of the images from the camera you're using a little to clear and crisp, I prefer that hazy, slightly off coloured, raspy nostalgic look old digital cameras have
Fuji is cancelling a lot of products right now, including the X100 series. This camera was probably under 1K before the 100v blew up thanks to tik tok. Don’t pay these prices. Go get the very last few XT30ii ‘s or an XT5 if you’re serious about photography
Lol, the F, the last generation that has the same optics as the original, goes for almost the same as the V, which finally got an optics update among other changes that's worth paying extra for. Either way, both are EXTREMELY inflated in price due to scarcity. Before anyone says, "but the chip shortage and pandemic did it," the X100V's have been sold out/on back order with basically every retailer since release way before the pandemic was an issue. I've also seen official Fuji stores having the X100V marked up from the 1200 MSRP to 2400. I love the cameras, I managed to get a broken V, repair it, and be set, but Fuji knows they're basically a Cult and the only option outside of a Leica or Sony RX1 for a great Fixed lens camera (the LX100 and LX100 II are great, but I'm not a fan of telescopic lenses), so they charge a premium. They're built well with a solid design/lens, I would pay 1200 for a brand-new warranty X100V probably, but not the 1400-2000 used ones are going for.
The easiest and least expensive way to closely replicate that "film look" from any digital camera will be from an old DSLR. You can pick any brand DSLR but make sure it was released before the year 2010. These cameras use older low megapixel sensors (that perfectly mimics film) and were limited by the technology during the time. You'll get filmic colors, higher ISO grain, and best of all, the ability to use hundreds of pre-owned lenses made in the last two decades! A Canon 20D, Nikon D200 or even better an early Full Frame camera like the Canon 5D classic or Nikon D700 all paired with a cheap 50mm prime are so inexpensive but so damn good right now, it absolutely makes complete sense. These were Pro cameras with ergonomic, ease of use and user tactile functionality in mind. Of course it's not going to look sexy like the Fuji X100f but if people just get over the black melted blob appearance, they can still experience the same nostalgic aesthetic without spending over $1000.
I wouldn't describe the x100f as a "beginner" camera - while it can do that it's also a serious photographer's tool. Price is relative - the new iPhone is projected around $1400 US...and people will upgrade that every year. It's always about "where do you spend your money" for the desired intent.
I bought a year ago a X100s for 500€, it might sound cheap to lots of people, but it all depends from the budget you want to spend, paid for an X-E2 body only 200€, that's cheap, but then you need to buy lenses, my advice, do not buy gear only because someone on YT said that it's cheap or is a nice beginning camera, there's a lot of good alternatives out there for relatively little money, even Fuji cameras, you just need to keep looking for the right offer, do not overpay for something that will loose value a few years after. Maybe this is not the case with Laicas camera and in this case X100 series, but buying used above the retail market is absurd.
It hasn't got all of the film sims. My favourite is Classic Negative and I'm pretty sure the X100F doesn't have that one as it was released in early 2020.
@daskrunkly3213 Exactly You can get an Olympus OM-10 for around $70 - 120, and for all intents and purposes, let's say your 36exp film was $10/roll Along with the price of the camera, and development (let's say $20/roll), you would have to shoot approx 33 - 46 rolls of film (approx. 1,188 - 1,656 exposures) before it you begin to save any money using the digital camera. If you cut the development costs out (say you develop film at home using a Patterson tank with caffenol or something cheap), you can increase your film count to 100 - 140 before you begin to save money using that digital camera (approx. 3,600 - 5,040 exposures)
It’s Fujifilm X100F so it’s an older version of the X100 serie. I think you can get it at a good price second hand. Note: It doesn’t have all Fujifilm simulations. Some simulations are only on the newer camera,
Hey guys if you want an actually cheap Fuji simulation camera that can replicate Kodak films and other films get a Fuji xe-1 150-250$ used and you can get a manual lense for 50 or less
Been wanting to pick one up for a while to use as a backup to my xpro3. These are now the same price as an xpro3 lol (not your fault tho-accessibility and prices are wild atm-a USED Olympus PEN was going for MORE than an xpro3 new the other day on eBay.)
People, this was posted 7 months ago, have some common sense. It's not his fault that demand increased this much, which makes prices go up a lot, he couldn't have predicted that. At the time of posting the short, he was correct, this was in fact a good deal. Not anymore, things chance.
It’s because of videos like these that Fujifilm can’t keep up with the demand. Good for them but, for us that know what we need it’s impossible to get some of the lineup because EVERYONE wants one regardless if they’ll end up using it. Prices have doubled on some stores and used ones are more expensive than retail price.
You can still get the x100s which is older than x100f And the original x100 although that one was a test camera and is somewhat awkward. But calling them beginner cameras...isnt accurate at all. You would learn a lot though
You don’t need a good camera for that just go into Lightroom and drag up the luma curve on the dark side slightly and tweak some things here and there and you’re done

(This does not include any additional charges, like scanning, accessories, etc., but it's just a point of reference)
It’s not cheap at all, and I don’t get why would you choose it over the x100v
I was looking at used X100T's until I can fit the X100V into my budget but even those are a bit much used these days...
It’s Fujifilm X100F so it’s an older version of the X100 serie. I think you can get it at a good price second hand.
Note: It doesn’t have all Fujifilm simulations. Some simulations are only on the newer camera,
Hey guys if you want an actually cheap Fuji simulation camera that can replicate Kodak films and other films get a Fuji xe-1 150-250$ used and you can get a manual lense for 50 or less
Why is this hobby filled with so many rich kids thinking 1k is a cheap camera
Can someone recommend a camera
They were cheap until tiktok blew them up and now resellers sell them for sometimes as much as 2k
Hey hows about a Leica M4-2? That’s about the simplest camera you could ever get; amazing for beginners.
Im a canon/fujifilm fan!
Been wanting to pick one up for a while to use as a backup to my xpro3. These are now the same price as an xpro3 lol (not your fault tho-accessibility and prices are wild atm-a USED Olympus PEN was going for MORE than an xpro3 new the other day on eBay.)
I like when people say digital cameras are film like. Then I know to never listen to them about anything, ever.
People, this was posted 7 months ago, have some common sense. It's not his fault that demand increased this much, which makes prices go up a lot, he couldn't have predicted that.
At the time of posting the short, he was correct, this was in fact a good deal. Not anymore, things chance.
It’s because of videos like these that Fujifilm can’t keep up with the demand. Good for them but, for us that know what we need it’s impossible to get some of the lineup because EVERYONE wants one regardless if they’ll end up using it. Prices have doubled on some stores and used ones are more expensive than retail price.
Yeah those prices haven’t fallen. The demand is high
In Swizerland it‘s more like 500 CHF (~500$)😢
Man said Cheap
O wanted to buy this camera but instead I went for the Sony a7c. It has a full frame sensor and you can change the objective. It's not much bigger
Fuji film rules

Just get a cheap camera with a sensitive light sensor. Maybe some older lenses that are a little warped.
If you want a camera similar to this and actually IS cheap. Have a look at the fujifilm X100, X100S and X100T.
You can get awesome Olimpus cameras, like M5mk2 or M1mk2 (more expensive), and get amazing set of inexpensive lenses. Quite a bargain tbh
Just looked it up and it’s 2000cad. Xt30 ii goes around 1200cad 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
It’s cheap only if you have been buying Leicas
Does this vintage cams uses film roll? Thank you.
It's a digital camera
You can still get the x100s which is older than x100f
And the original x100 although that one was a test camera and is somewhat awkward.
But calling them beginner cameras...isnt accurate at all. You would learn a lot though
I will say my film camera is canon prima bf 800 and its pretty cheap,mine is from my grandpa but i found my model on ebay around 60$-30$
got a sony rx100 mark 1 for 150. same form factor, better sensor and a zoom lens at a fraction of the price
You don’t need a good camera for that just go into Lightroom and drag up the luma curve on the dark side slightly and tweak some things here and there and you’re done
