Your video is therapeutic for me. The calm vibe and voice has never failed to soothe my raging soul. It also inspires me to continue with photography even though I’m shooting everything with my iPhone 11. I saw an XE2 a while back that’s within my budget, but never went for it. It’s all because I find that I enjoy taking photos with my iPhone and there’s no need for a dedicated camera at the moment because I shoot for fun.

Really enjoyed the simplicity of my X-E-4 to the pont where I was going to put my XT-3 for sale. XE-4 with my 18-55 was my out the door kit. Then I started using my XT-3 again & the XE-4 is on hiatus. Better get it some exercise soon.

Got the X100V and love it, pick up and go, no thinking about lenses, but got my other bigger camera and lenses for other stuff. If you are going for a camera as your only system, then XE or another more flexible set up is understandable.

@oisin_o_boyle Год назад

Sold my x100v recently, never really liked that 35mm eqv. No regrets at all. In love now with my X-E4 with either XF16/2.8, 35/2 or 50/2. For leaf shutter and real compactness I do use my Ricoh GR3. x100v was never really compact enough.

@woutervl Год назад

I own both the X100V and X-E4. They're great companions to eachother! Honestly use them both 50/50. X100 is great for everyday life and shots, X-E4 for everything else!

@DustinDriver Год назад

I fell in love with the X100. It's a mesmerizing little object and it makes you WANT to take photos. The look, the feel of its controls, its weight, the little optical viewfinder. Just perfect. But I went with the X-E4 because I can only afford one camera and I want to experiment with other prime lenses. It also has 90% of the charm of the X100 and has the potential to have 95% of the charm of the X100 with the addition of a fancy-pants silver FUJIFILM XF 35mm f/2 R WR lens attached.

@stevenharper6888 Год назад

I recently entered the world of Fujifilm, I looked ant the 100v and really like to be able to swap lenses. The XE4 would have the choice but all out of stock. I picked up a XT30ii with a 18-55 and also picked up a 35mm f2. So love it and no regrets 👍

@ANRALOGI Год назад

Man, I miss London. Seeing your video made me want to go back. I remembered that I spent a whole day inside Tate Museum trying to grasp inspiration and a new approach to my photography. Wish I could go back again.

@ingemarhellsten7809 Год назад

An xpro2/3 with the 27mm f/2.8 would probably be a good combo if you want a small, everyday camera that still has weather sealing and that nice rangefinder body.

@GoodPhotos Год назад

XF27/2.8 (both versions) is just about the perfect focal length between the 23 and 35. Equiv. to the 40mm Summicron that Leica made for it's joint Leica/Minolta 'Compact Leitz' (CL) project back in the 70s, it's the 'sweet spot' for many of us and it makes for a super compact setup on the X-E4. (ALMOST as small as the Fuji X20 point and shoot was with the lens closed.) I had an X100V. It was my last effort to really love the X100 platform. I'd had the original and an F previous to that, but for as much as they offer the same excellent image quality that all my Fujis have, I always felt that it was too much $$ being tied up in a body that could only offer me a handful of similar focal lengths using the screw on Aux lenses and the Digital Conversion options. The X-E4 does EVERYTHING I wanted the X-100 for with the exception of not having a built in WR, OVF, ND, flash or leaf shutter...none of which I actually USED for as much as I thought I 'needed' them. If I WANT to be tied to just ONE focal length for a day of shooting so that I'm not crippled with indecision about which focal length to use, I always have that option by taking only ONE lens on the camera for the day. With the ILC, though I have the option to choose a DIFFERENT focal length tomorrow! (The 18/2, 27/2.8 and 35/1.4 are usually my favourites for walkabout with only ONE....even then I usually keep the Loawa 9/2.8 in my pocket just in case!) I much prefer being able to use every Fuji lens I have and with adapters just about ANY lens ever made for ANY camera on my X-E4 bodies. We are totally spoilt with nothing but really good choices in Fuji gear these days though and that's a good thing.

@fiskemannen Год назад

I tried both for some time and the deciding factor ended up being the feel of the shutter. The x100 has a leaf shutter- which has a bunch of advantages, but it also means that it is essentially silent and has no kick or haptic feedback, either. They include some sound effects so you can get a click or shutter sound when hitting the trigger, but they are really poor. Turns out I really like the sound and feel of a mechanical shutter, and I couldn't really get used to the x100v not having one, it just felt weird and unsatisfying taking photos. So I ended up with the X-E4, which has a mechanical shutter, and you can really sense a kick and sound when taking a shot, and I'm very happy with it. The sensors and film simulations in both cameras are the same, so the shots are same, it's all about the feel and utility of the camera, so it's well worth trying them out.

It's surprised me a bit by the photos online, the build quality/, material and the finish are identical between x100v and xe4. I'm glad that you pointed out that the x100v has better build quality. I own the x100v and always wonder about the build quality between the two, now I got my answer. Thanks!

@bmeclipse Год назад

Great explainer as alway, Faizal. I use the X100V alongside an X-H2S and honestly, you couldn’t go wrong with either if you are into Fuji glass. I prefer the 100V because I don’t have to think about which lens I want to slap on. I just grab and go.

@markay_ Год назад

@jazzfan7491 Год назад

Hey in one of your videos -- I think it's this one but I'm not sure -- you had the great tip for the X100V that there is a setting in the menus to lock the exposure compensation dial to prevent it from being knocked accidentally (it's a problem a lot of people have noticed, including me...). Looking around the manual I discovered that if you use that lock you can unlock it quickly by holding down the "Menu/OK" button for a second or so. So, in other words, when you DO want to use the expo. comp. dial but you have locked it, you can just push and hold "Menu/OK" (you will see a response on the LCD screen after about a second) to unlock it. You don't have to dive a couple of layers into the menus to unlock. A nice little tip. Press "Menu/OK" for a second to relock it.

Great video content and production value. Great recommendation on Musicbed resource. 2 questions: 1) What’s the name of the songs you used on this video (just LOVE them)? 2) What’s you’re recommendation if I’m looking for better performance than my X100T’s AF, only 1 custom WB “slot”, short battery life, and if I’m looking to do more video with the ability to preview the video on articulating flip screen or using the Fuji app. I also have the XT-1 and it’s viewfinder orientation better suits my left eye dominance, but the images on my X100T are my favorites for documentary and environmental portraits. Sorry, long question #2.

@FlosBlog Год назад

I am kinda at the same point as you are - a bit tired of the x100 and it’s fixed focal length of 35mm. I found myself gravitating towards 50mm as well. Just with a z5 and not an xe4 ;)

@jim_bocho Год назад

If you’re going with an older X-E*, X-E2(s) or X-E3 are the ones to go for. Especially the difference in price between 1 and 2 is small for such a big upgrade. Actually trying to find an X-E2 right now to figure out if that’s not completely sufficient for my needs (and skill).

@robertrowles4948 Год назад

Thank you for a well presented presentation of an understandable quandary for many. I was about to subscribe to your channel, but initially thought it worthwhile to comment that the extra cost of adding a lens to the X-E4 brought it close in price to the X100V. I therefore thought it was a shame that a responder to my comment felt it necessary to imply that I might be a "snot ball" for voicing that opinion. He himself claims to have what is probably more than £7,000 worth of kit, which would quite likely imply that he really isn't in the same position as those contemplating your topic. Such comments simply put people off trying to engage rationally in what should be an interesting and valid debate.

@awesomnality Год назад

If you are starting with photography - interchangeable lens system. If you are advanced using zoom system and want to challenge yourself - fixed lens system, preferably something with a built in lens like x100 so you don't have an option to change the lens. That's why the x100 lineup is so amazing, you have the amazing fuji recipes, compact form factor, fixed lens - all you have to do is grab the camera and start shooting, without thinking about anything else but capture the moment and enjoy photography at it's purest form. It's a detox camera.

@MacDeece Год назад

I’m not sure if I agree. I would say that it obviously depends on what you want it for, but from my own experience, using a fixed lens system as a beginner I believe is more simple and more inspiring to the novice photographer. It takes all of the guesswork out of photography setups. I had an a6000 and constantly thought I should buy a bigger lens than my 33mm because I thought my lack of zoom options was limiting me, but I wasn’t able to afford one, and so I tried my hand with photography and gave up because I believed that good photographers are only so good because they have all the expensive gear to take great photos. In believing this, I forgot one of the most basic rules of photography, that being that your eye (instinct) is more important than the objective quality of your photos. If you give an experienced photographer an iPhone 4 camera, and a total newcomer the best setup going, the newcomer will most likely have the best overall quality of images, but the photos captured by the experienced photographer will have more character, as the experienced photographer knows how to frame a photo and what subjects to photograph to tell a bit of a story or communicate an emotion or message. The number one thing that new photographers must do is take photos, and I believe the easiest way to do this is by reducing the total number of variables from their setup, so they are forced to be creative with their framing and subjects. When I got my camera I was somewhat paralysed by all of the settings, variable zoom, etc., and so I was always so focused on what I was doing wrong, when I should have just been going out and having fun taking photos, and learning along the way. Of course, everyone’s circumstances will be different, and their needs will be different, but I think newbies should focus on finding a setup that makes it as easy as possible for them to enjoy photography, and thus makes them want to go out on a walk or into a city just to see what they can capture - whether this is with a tripod, interchangeable lenses and a plethora of settings to adjust, or a fixed lens system with minimal adjustable settings. Even if it’s just a smartphone camera, as long as they’re enjoying the experience and happy with their results, that is a good enough place from which to build their interest in this hobby, and from this, potentially their career. Cheers, Harry

@Agent.Michael_Scarn Год назад

What thumb grip do you use? Couldn’t find any info/ links in your description or website. What would you recommend for the X100 series? Ones I’m looking at look like they mark the back of the camera after decent use except on the X-E4 which has a rubber mount on the back to protect it - can’t find an equivalent for an X100T :( The Lensmate isn’t sold in the UK as that seems to get recommended the most. Would really appreciate any help!

@barsbeatlife Год назад

I love the X100V as it makes me focus on composition and (where possible! taking a few extra steps for the outcome you want. I might get bored of it eventually and look to an XE4 or something, but I enjoy not having to invest in other lenses or needing to pack them for holidays etc. That was probably why I rarely took my DSLR on holiday with me, or even just generally out with me in my everyday carry. Just wish I could use some of the recipes other Fuji cameras can support. Saw a really cool pink-tinted Eterna Bleach Bypass one the other day.
