While many camera channels focus on talking specifics, you always show how to get the best out of every camera and let the images speak for themselves man. The sheer creativity that goes into each of these videos is unrivaled and a real source of inspiration. Thank you for going the extra mile in every amazing video you produce. As for the X100V it made me rediscover my love of photography and I couldn’t be more excited for its successor and its potential for video.

@BryceDearden 5 месяцев назад

You so perfectly encapsulate the idea of why this camera and a variety of other photo/video trends have their moment. At some point, even picking up an R5, a9iii, FX3, Z8, any of the best cameras *ever made* becomes work. You might love your work, I do, but many didn’t start this path to have a job. They started because they fell in love with making images and the world said the only way you get to do this all the time is if you make money with it. Using old manual lenses, cameras with different shooting styles, 35mm film, older “worse” sensors, or little Fuji cameras with an optical viewfinder and a fixed lens tricks your brain out of the camera being work, and lets you fall in love all over again. It keeps the spark alive! If you have fun without an expensive new camera, more power to ya. If you’re looking for it but can’t afford a $1600 cam, try some of the other things I said. If you don’t think it should be any fun, leave me alone.

@hundredfireify 5 месяцев назад

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!

@AhHerPadi 5 месяцев назад

YES, every clicks on the Fujifilm camera with the film simulation is what keeps me going for the next shot, it drives the creativity and it's a lot of fun. x100vi seems like a spec bump with complete film sims and that's when the video would end but you went ahead and made a 12 minutes long video! Packed with more "tech sets" and please, more of it!

@tersono 5 месяцев назад

YES! It's wild that Fuji hasn't seen and taken advantage of the opportunities when it comes to simulation building by users - they should focus on this, it should be part of the app, it should be something there are specific interfaces for, it should be all about building simulations, LUTs, and sharing them, remixing them, saving and transferring them between cameras, etc. It's the logical progression of what they did when they started this, but haven't followed through on despite the huge popularity of it and their user's choice to just hack it into existence!

Goddammit, GX ! You're killing me with your footage and photos ! These SOOC look insane, both in their colors than in the grain ! There is something strangely soothing with using a Fuji camera to shoot Japan. Whenever you shot China, it always came out as gloomy, depressed, borderline Blade Runner-ish. But Japan just feels different, man. Warmer, cleaner, more orderly, almost nostalgic, in a sense... Always a treat to see whenever one of your videos are posted on RU-vid ! You're one of the rare youtubers that make me borderline having an out of body sensorial experience each time I watch one of your masterpieces. Keep at it !

Cool that you talked about disabilites. I was born with my right thumb split (so born with total of 3 thumbs), but since my brain couldn't control them independently doctors removed one of them when I was 2. The end result is that my thumb was significantly weaker and less flexible, so I've always been very sensitive to cameras have good purchase for my thumb and not requiring too much bending. I don't have an X100 series camera anymore, but for me as well it's light weight was great and made it more useful.

I've always liked it in certain genres but not my own. I'm shooting a X-T4 after my X-Pro2 was stolen and I like it but I've always pined for the rangefinder of the X100 series (it's what I bought my daughter for her first camera).
