Should I get X100F or X100V?

Whereas the X100F goes up to 1080p and 60fps, the X100V can record 4K and DCI 4K up to 30p, as well as 2K up to 60p. 4K recording works with oversampling and no sensor crop, which means you get the same quality as with the X-T3.

The Fujifilm X100V series of cameras have been used for professional work before. In fact, a photographer won awards with it at the recent World Press Photo awards. So if it’s good enough for the press, it’s more than good enough for most hobbyists, semi-professionals, and enthusiasts.

Why is the X100V so popular?

It comes down to a combination of four factors: its stylish, pocketable form factor, large APS-C sensor, unique hybrid viewfinder, and a fixed 23mm f/2 lens. Together, these four things make the X100 series a deservedly popular choice among street and travel snappers.

Are people still using digital cameras?

Demand for traditional DSLRs continues to decline, however, as mirrorless cameras have gained prominence.

What is the oldest camera brand? By far the most significant event in the history of amateur photography was the introduction of the Kodak #1 camera in 1888.

What is X100V good for?

A big reason to buy the X100V is the much improved image quality, not only over its predecessors, but also over the majority of other APS-C cameras in its class. Being able to apply great-looking film-simulations in-camera really is just the icing on the cake.

Can X100V shoot raw?

And, yes the X100 does produce very nice JPEG quality. Do RAW files easily convert to quality jpgs or is much more processing required? RAW does not respond to camera settings—it truly is the raw data off the sensor. It has an embedded preview which is in fact a JPEG, but that is just a preview.

Is the X100V worth the money?

The Fuji X100V for me is the camera that I really look forward to taking out and using. It gives everything that I personally want in a street and travel camera.
