This camera is the ONLY REAL X100V alternative! 

Thank you big boss o7

I saw this too late, but thanks lmao

Thank you. Glad I purchased my x100f when it first came out.

Thank you sir.

Thanks

yup, I ran Nikon for years. I got out of the business and now the X100s is still here. Though I do miss the blazing speed of my pro gear. But shutter speed and depth of field overcome that!

My X100S serial number was 184!

Wish I had the same luck.

I would not trade my GR3 for anything. I get better results from it than I do my K3iii

The optical viewfinder of the X100 is what really defines the line!!!

where did you bought ?

@@Paula-kr2gj ebay

RU-vid. RU-vid turns cameras into cult cameras at an amazing speed. Pre-Internet, for decades, there were really only two cult cameras, Leica rangefinders and Hasselblad's.

I've been using my X100F for 7 years now and am very happy with the results. Been a pro for over 50 years.

The fix stoped working on mine. When I have to start planning everything around a camera including where to store it and how to handle it it no longer becomes as convenient.

x-e4 + XF35mm f/1.4 + XF 18-55mm f/2.8. No other lens required. Peace.

X-E4 + 18mm F2 maybe too

@@georgechen1124 that's far from an alternative though. A non pancake prime and a zoom lens isn't really comparable to the inbuilt lens on the x100v

@@radovansurlak7445 I'm using my XE4/18mm f2 , after firmware update, for street photography exclusively. RAW only, processed in Photoshop 23. ACR > Enhance. 22 seconds conversion for uncompressed RAW. 100 MB output - no problem with 4TB of external disk storage.. Zero all 'Detail' sliders in ACR. PS > Smart Sharpen. (Find the best combination by trial and error.) Eliminates all X-Trans 'issues' and produces a result at least as good if not superior to my 'other combo', a Sony a99V/Zeiss 24mm f2. End of story. I am amused/bemused/confused why so may RU-vid experts talk about X Trans and Lightroom when Photoshop, with all its additional options, is largely ignored.

@@graemeallan7883 alright…

I just subscribed as well for this being one of the reasons. Great video though.

I just can’t trust the GR line 😞 but I do look at that GRiiiX and I get excited. I’m a 40mm truther and a few months back I wanted to pair the GRiii with a GRiiiX for event work.

they do, it's called XE4

Good combo. I’m a fan of the 50mm field of view.

you will like it more than the 100v. The 'V' is a very limited camera. Sold my first x100 quick as spit.

You probably made the best decision. Now you have an incredible camera and you'll be able tp grow your photography skills with other lenses of the fuji x ecosystem once you are tired of this 35mm. haha

Just sold mine because of fear of dust. It was honestly incredible though.

@@7743dustin I have heard of this issue. I plan to take a vacuum to it while activating the sensor vibration function. I'll just have to see for myself how bad it gets.

I love the Ricoh cameras but I can’t recommend them - but you may want to go on Reddit to look at the vacuuming this; people have reported trying that and they fuck up the ibis mechanism.

@@DeeRosa Fucking up the IBIS sounds ominous. I suppose if the suction were hard enough then that could happen, like sucking it with a Shop-Vac. What is your biggest gripe about the GR? I have used the IIIx for a month and the only thing I do not like about it is the autofocus occasionally hunts and doesn't quite stick like a Fuji. But it has highlight priority exposure which I wish Fuji had.

My biggest gripes are literally what I said in the video? Lmao. Did you not watch it? There’s a whole section about that and the GRiii & GRiiix.

Same here - exactly.

Love the zeiss lens can’t lie.

Will say though that I’m surprised you’re enjoying the lowlight. F2.8 on FF still gathers less light than F2 on apsc regardless of sensor.

I'm loving the X100V hype, I had one for two years and recently just ditched it for $400 more than I paid for it. It was a nice little camera, but really it's biggest draw is how it looked aesthetically. It wasn't really any smaller than my Nikon Z6ii and 28mm lens and certainly didn't take as good of photos.

@@thisisbenji90 if you’re on the selling end of it, yeah I bet 😂

I also low-key prefer my x100f...

I know you can’t get the x100v but for me I love the f mainly now for the D pad

Stop. Don’t do this. What do you gain from this?

@@DeeRosa Just a laugh bro :) I though it was obviously over the top to be taken seriously

I know lol I was joking back 😂

@@DeeRosa :) it's all good. love your videos

😂😂😂

This was close up no doubt. For the rest the pro is far better camera than the quite limited V.

​@@drs-Rigo-Reus the x100v does have one other trick up it's sleeve, it's leaf shutter that allows even it's puny flash to work great in almost all scenarios

Yup. Had two GRiii cameras. Both had issues with control wheel. One wasn’t fixable with the contact spray and so people told me to super glue it. To think that the CONSUMER is the problem when it comes to faulty equipment and the only solution to people who defend the camera is “super glue” a camera I spent $1K on.

Nah man they’re good. Everyone has an opinion. I just don’t like when people wig out with questions I already answered in the video.

I don’t know - I never had an issue or a big difference and some people online have done actual texts to show it’s the same or better than the V. Can’t tell you.

Lol! That’s when I got mine.

Same question. I have a d-lux 7 and it feels how I hear a x100v seems to feel…. Very subjective of course 😉

Hey you two! I haven’t used the DLux ever and so I didn’t feel comfortable discussing it. I try to only mention and discuss cameras I’ve used because I don’t want to portray I know more than I do. My knowledge is limited to my experiences on this channel. Anything else would be me making things up for the clicks.

Go buy one then? Lmao. Are you arguing what’s better or what’s an alternative? I feel like you Som y fanbois didn’t watch ANYTHING in the video just heard me leave out your cute FF camera and got upset. I don’t care about a FF sensor because you can’t tell what a FF image looks like. You’re all lying if you say so. You can’t pick it out of a lineup.

@@DeeRosa Not the response I was expecting from a guy who invited “very, very, mean, angry comments,” but I’ll play: 1) After much deliberation, I did buy one. But am still wondering if I made the right decision and I wonder about what the best alternative is. Your commentary on the Ricoh III was something I have never heard before. Very helpful since, so far, my next camera was surely going to be the next generation Ricoh. Now, I’ll check to see if they solved the dust and wheel problem before buying. 2) The Sony a7C is not “cute.” It’s a photography tool. 3) Your feelings deceive you. Leave them out of your analysis. 4) Your argument is that the X100F is the “ONLY” (emphasis yours) alternative. My argument is that the Sony a7C is a better alternative for some people. 5) There are advantages of FF sensors that you are disregarding. Comparing standard images on a computer monitor is not one of them. FF sensors have larger pixels that render color better and are more efficient at capturing incoming light. When ISO has to be pushed upwards, the difference between a full frame sensor and an APS-C sensor becomes obvious-even on a computer monitor. This one is big for me with my street photography. I need to shoot with 320-400fps so I often have to push ISO upwards to 800-1,250. When the sun starts going down, my full frame sensor allows me to keep going whereas an APS-C sensor would make me stop due to the difference in image quality. 6) I hate cropping; rarely did it with film. but I have to admit, I might end up doing so. The higher resolution of a full frame sensor renders better resolution than a smaller sensor when cropping. But your main emphasis was size. Sony has a huge plethora on high quality lenses to chose from but no real alternative to the size of the noninterchangeable Fuji lenses. My preferred lens for street photography is the latest 24mm from Sony. But this juts out the camera to about 90mm, significantly more than the Fuji cameras. Significant drawback. But for me, the 35mm equivalent angle of the Fuji cameras is also a major drawback. I don't think there is an "ONLY" (emphasis yours) alternative for any camera. It's really about the needs and priorities of the photographer.

You wrote a novel and I still don’t care. You can’t tell the difference.

@@DeeRosa No problem. The comment section primarily serves the greater public audience anyway--not you. Not only are you only one person, you are a petty. Others may still benefit. Lengthy comments may not be lengthy enough when an expensive purchase is forthcoming.

@@TheReasonTroll say man don’t take it personal but I truly don’t care.

I think people are taking this video as it’s the ONLY compact camera setup. I never said that. I said there’s only ONR real alternative. The a7c is bigger. Has no OVF. No film sims. No Fuji colors. Brick aesthetic. Also that kit is a whole other price bracket. It’s not a bad camera. But is something will all those variables REALLY the best alternative or just something that in a vacuum sounds the same.

I sincerely don’t care at all. I know what that camera is. To say the autofocus is better is actually not backed by much since people have that as the only complaint against the camera. If you want it. Go buy it. But I sincerely don’t care. It’s not an alternative that’s better than the X100F. It has none of the features, feel or aesthetic and have a FF camera isn’t a need of mine because you can’t tell what a full frame photo looks like in a lineup of images.

I have the screen off so that helps and use the OVF. For a 3 hour photo walk I’m good. I guess I’m just curious as to how many shots you’re taking? I shot single shot and don’t do burst.

New Lonnie dropping? 👀

@@DeeRosa Yessir just dropped. Nothing major, just sharing some thoughts out loud - gettin my ramble on

X100s. I don’t think so. They’re selling too high. X100f though I approve.
