I've had a similar path, but with one detour. I got the VI, immediately realized I wanted interchangeable lenses, so sold the VI and got the X-T5 (same sensor, a few more dials), and then almost immediately got the GRiiiX (40mm lens) for pretty much ALL the reasons you chose yours. I'm using the X-T5 as my MAIN camera, but always have the GRiiiX in my pocket for a fast shot and a stealth shot at that. Great post, GB. :) I'm going to subscribe so I can stick around and see what you're up to next.
Nice lil vid here. Curious to find out how the experience goes for you and whether Ricoh becomes the new every day.. no doubt it’s gonna be a good battle for your pockets
@@gabrielbailey802 it’s actually a long story lol. I was shooting a surprise proposal for a couple and the girl decided it was too buggy to come out on the beach so I was chasing them around trying to find where they were going to propose. I had it with me for fun and I lost it while moving locations. They ended up not even getting engaged that day either 😂
