What’s your pick? I’m a huge fan of each for different reasons. Pre-Order the X-E4 here: moment.8ocm68.net/bWQ1g Order the X-Pro3 here:moment.8ocm68.net/yn35V Order the X100V here: moment.8ocm68.net/m9XZX ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
⚡️ I think it’s worth mentioning that the X-E4 plus the XF27mm R WR should be pretty darn close in depth to the X100V, while offering a tighter “normal” lens field of view, and still costs $1049 as a bundle.
I have the x100v as my fun, grab and go digital camera and it’s perfect for that. I love having the hybrid viewfinder as I prefer the optical viewfinder but will use the evf from time to time. It is great to have that option and it’s shame no other camera systems has something like it.
⚡️⚡️ I have had the X-e4 for almost a year and just got the x-pro3. All because I initially wanted the x100v. I have tried to find an x100v at retail but have had no luck. But I can honestly say I am happy that I didn’t because I love the X-e4. I love the ability to change lenses and now want something with weather sealing. I just rewatched this video to gain more knowledge on the x-pro3
Well said. All 3 of those are HUGE. Shooting wide open in sunlight.. shutter so silent it’s basically an invisible camera, and a flash that I use often. Indoors and out.
⚡I have an XE3 and X100V. I had an XPro2, Sony a6300, various Nikons. After purchasing a few 35mm RF film cameras and LOVING them I decided to look for something like them in the digital world. The X100V is the closest thing I could find and it's brilliant! The XE3 is sitting in it's box! ⚡
Great comparison. Thank you! 1.5 years ago, I got the “V” as a “fun camera” next to my Nikon full frame DSLR. Barely touched the Nikon ever since and ultimately got rid of it. I looked long and hard at the pro3. But that screen is too damn gimmicky for my taste. And after years of hauling gear around and always debating which lens to bring, the “35mm only” obligation has been a bliss. That said, the 50mm equivalent tele converter and the Fuji EF-60 flash do wonders for me (for the occasional portrait). Such a nice “complete” pack, all weather sealed and without the temptations of getting a closet full of lenses….
X-E series is definitely the back-up body par excellence for the Fuji system. I have the X-E2s but I'm getting the X-E4 + 27mm mark II combo precisely because I want a slim back-up body with tilt screen and weather resistant pancake lens for my X-Pro3.
Great comparison video ! I am a Leica 35mm film rangefinder shooter. Instead of a digital Leica rangefinder, I prefer to use the Fuji X-Pro1 and X-Pro2.
This is great information, thank you for keeping us posted on this new X-E4 and helping us make decisions :) I am certainly leaning back to the X100V personally. In black of course.
⚡ Nice comparison video. I have both the X-Pro2 and the X100V. They both get used an equal amount. I tend to use the X100V to just simplify things when I start overthinking what I should put in my camera bag. I also noticed that Voigtländer M mount lenses tend to be used more frequently on my X-Pro2 since I picked up the X100V.
Great video, I appreciated that you kept specs nice and quick for these cameras. You gave them a good breakdown describing their similarities/differences in functionality for who they would be best suited for, while providing a lot of great side by side size comparison shots. Thank you ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Even today, before choosing which model to buy, if you have not tried it, you must try the OVF feature on the X-proX or the X100X models. It was groundbreaking when Fuji introduced it in 2010 and still is today.
The best is X100V because you don’t need to buy extra lenses and you don’t need them. Leaf shutter and build in flash is also a major target. Perfect camera for traveling, city, nature but not for wildlife… so as always a compromise but a good one.
⚡️This was super rad! I really appreciate the perspective. You do a nice combination of technical aspect balanced with the everyday shooting reality of the gear your review. Thanks again!
Fuji needs to add IBIS to the xpro and OIS to the x100 line. I switched from the X100F to leica q2 and the OIS is so underrated for shooting landscape/cityscape at night because i can hand hold down to 1/4 shutter speed and get a cleaner image by keeping the ISO low. It's really the only thing keeping me from buying into the fuji rangefinder style cameras.
@Erik Burgerhagen Really? I can definitely say it's better to have IBIS/OIS than to not have it. I use the stabilization frequently in night shoots. Leica Q has OIS the GRIII has IBIS. There's absolutely no reason Fujifilm can't fit stabilization into their Xpro/X100 lineup especially given the fact their competitors are offering it (even in smaller form factors like the Ricoh GR)
⚡️looking for a street camera for an event in the Fall and am looking forward to the upcoming release. Watched a few of your videos and really appreciate your comparisons as well as editing/text effect work.
The video is very well done. Clear, concise, informative and insightful. I can imagine the effort it takes to create such a video - many thanks for sharing this valuable and helpful information ⚡
⚡️⚡️⚡️ Great video Benj! Love the attention you give to detail and the way you deliver the information. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these Fuji cameras.
XE-4 is a Q2 killer.....simple....style, with XF lens....bingo. Focus is better with e fuji. price.... X pro 3 is a q2 and M killer. And SL killer. The 3 is just on another level. One has to get to the SL2 to beat it and even then....focus on the x pro 3 is better. And focus matters.
⚡️ Since I already own too much X cameras those cameras with interchangeable lenses are already surplus for me. But X100V is small and compact and I'm seriously thinking on acquiring that little beast. On top of that, it has weather sealing. Why is that important? Course I always end up in the rain, snow, or a sandstorm, pick your poison...
I'm a Sony shooter but i am super tempted to pick up either the XE-4 or another compact camera i can take out and just have fun with when i don't want to lug around my a7iii or Riii. And at BH the XE-4 Is pretty cheap if you are a student and have a student account with them. I think I'm gonna get the XE-4 for some street photography...⚡⚡
i have always been drawn to the x100 for the simplicity of choice. If you only got 1 lens, you learn to get the most out of it. It becomes natural that you know what setting has which effect. That and yes, they are smaller. Still, the ability to have different lenses for different occasions. That draws me too!
I think Fuji is taking a page from Leica in thir releare strategy... release the best design then figure out how to lower the cost with a still great but not as great camera. I still want that X-Pro3 but I would be fine with any of these (I actually like the idea of a hidden screen).
⚡⚡ Watched it twice! Great video and thanks. Lovin that ultra retro small film camera look and lack of buttons of the X-E4. Excited to see the head to head X-E4 / 23 f2 vs X100V / 23 f2 image quality difference. Fwiw, it'd be good to compare the X-E4 / 27 2.8 to the X100V in terms of size.
⚡️Finally a good comparison. The X-E4 looks very intriguing and I loved the X-E3 when I had it, but I think the X100V is the camera for me. The size comparison was perfect.
Well, I own the X-Pro 3 as well as the ‘2’, love those rigs and they nicely complement my X-T2 that I use for action work. The X-E2s was my introduction into the Fuji system when moving from Canon after 35 years back in 2017. At first glance, the X-E4 was looking like a “must-have” to replace the X-E2s, however, on closer inspection (via RUclips) the missing focus switch from the from of the camera is a big negative for me, that said, I will withhold judgment until I have a chance to try it out, once my local camera store gets a few in stock. Love the looks of the ‘100’, but the fixed lens is a deal killer....for now🤤 but I might succumb at some future date when my wallet allows.
Good comparison but you were late mentioning unique and to me important X100V capabilities like the leaf shutter, which permits great fill in flash (as only the V has flash), and the built-in ND filter. You did not mention the amazing digital zoom (50mm and 70MM) available in the X100V, which I have used with great quality results while traveling. These things separate the X100V from the pack.
eh, I'm never a fan of the digital zoom, but I can understand the convenience. Personally, I also don't use the fill flash ever so it didn't really occur to me until the very end. fwiw, I don't script these videos at all, just sit down and record whatever my thoughts are at the moment ;)
I know this has been up for a while but it's still a big help. My X100 is starting to show it's age so I've been looking at upgrading to the V but now I don't know if I want the x-100V for the pure shooting simplicity or the X-E4 for the option of lenses. I just love shooting with the X100. It's just such a great experience and the fixed focal length just keeps things so simple. ⚡
I "watched it all the way to the end." Thank you! Enjoyed the video very much. I love all 3 cameras but really want a great compact one everyday one. :)
Hey @benjhaisch . Loved this video. I do have a question about the lenshood that you suggested to buy on the video description (JJC Lens Hood). Is this the same one that you're using on the X-E4 35mm lens? I want to buy the same one for me but on the amazon link seems it is specific for x100v lens.
The leaf shutter alone on the x100v is distinctive versus the others. The xPro-3 has interchangable lenses. I own both along with a GFX 100s. The gap is closing. It will be cool when the GFX 100R is released. If it has the viewfinder of the Xpro3, I will be all over it.
Im really thinking about switching from the X100v to the XE4 simply because the fast heating of the X100v annoys me more than I want to admit because it is not a real issue but still the only thing that keeps me from keeping it. Has someone made any experience with the XE4? Has it because of the similar body the same heat production?
If there were Fujinon XF lenses with leaf shutters there would be no question for me: X-Pro3 for sure. But since there aren't, I want an X-100V now, and then add an X-T5 or X-H3 later.
Very nice video, nicely summed up and compared the 3 cameras. Its also very interesting how Fujifilm thinks and is not afraid to experiment and at the same time some Fuji decisions are "interesting" there is always something missing in a camera. I think would be fantastic, if Fuji could make the X100V with interchangeable lenses, with IBIS and bigger EVF. this would be a THE RIGHT CAMERA for everything! :) what is your opinion?
I don't understand why they crippled the x-e4 so much, no built-in flash (could be the pop-up kind), no focus mode switch, no back thumb dial, no grip contour. The x-t30 has all of those, but if you want the rangefinder style and interchangeable lenses, you're stuck with these compromises.
Hi Benj Haisch. Thank you for the comparison. I was seriously considering the X-E4 + 27/2.8ii bundle until Fuji announced that the body wasn't WR (and I was already willing to accept some of the vital switches/dials/buttons they removed from there). I'm curious about your leather straps attached to the PD anchor links. Did you have them customized such that you had them stitched permanently on it anchor links? Thank you.
I have been waiting for the xe4 for years it feels like. This will be the perfect travel and family camera for me as if I can flip the a screen and be in the photos and compose without the Fuji remote app.
good job! I've seen too much no-content-hey-look-at-me-hipster-crap about these camera's. Very nice to finaly have someone that does photography review these side bij side.
I’m loving these videos. But the most confusing thing about Fuji camera is that they have so many options with the same sensors. I have the x100f and I love it. I’ve thought about the XE4 but the XT4 looks tempting too. I’m torn because I have the slightest idea seeing the differences.
⚡️I have been a happy user of x-100s since I got it new back in March 2013. Love the idea of upgrade to the latest, but this one is still more than enough for what I shoot. Besides, need to hold on to cash for when the mono version is available for purchase.
⚡️ Super helpful video. This makes my choice a bit harder between the xe4 and x100v but I love that fact that both cameras are simplified in different areas. I find that I enjoy photography more with my film cameras (no modern features) so either of these will likely make me happy. I may lean towards the xe4 for the lens swap options, although I do find myself happily shooting with single prime lenses. A nice tough decision to make 😆.
Been shooting solely on the x100v for the last 6 months and got the TCL(50equiv) a little before Christmas. I personally would love to continue shooting only with the x100v and TCL but I feel down the road I’ll end up with an xpro3 maybe 4 if it’s out by the time I upgrade. With the fujicron line up. I miss my xpro2 ! The feeling of the xpro line in the hand is definitely premium I’d say. Also ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️😂👌🏼
Interesting vid, just changed my x pro 1 for a x100v and loving it so far. Lovely form factor looks great. BTW love the leather straps what are they? Thanks
Nice comparison. I had to laugh that you're using PD straps with their quick-release system, but didn't disconnect any of them before filming, leading to some awkwardness. Regardless, thanks for the vid. I am a big fan of the X100 series, unfortunately these days the V is sold out everywhere and goes for outrageous used prices. I wonder if the X100(6/VI/X/Whatever) will be announced next year.
What’s your pick? I’m a huge fan of each for different reasons.

100% the X Pro 3, but its a bit heavy, so I am sticking with the nearest XE, the XE2, for now. The 4 is more like a mini X100 than a mini X Pro.
X100V complements my X-T4 as a family, daily documenting camera - nice to have the same workflow for both and similar results
⚡️
I think it’s worth mentioning that the X-E4 plus the XF27mm R WR should be pretty darn close in depth to the X100V, while offering a tighter “normal” lens field of view, and still costs $1049 as a bundle.
The value to cost ratio is great on the X-E4. Just copped one for about $700 used which I thought was a great deal.

I am certainly leaning back to the X100V personally. In black of course.
I guess the Xe-4 and the 27mm will be a really good combo, and have the hability to change lenses is not a bad thing. However WR can be handy.
Interesting that Fuji makes many body variations with same sensor and essentially same processor. Be interesting with a mono sensor. ⚡️
Loved my x100f, and my X-E3, but have just sold them both and bought the xPro3.
Nice job Benj. One of the best reviews of the X100V I've seen.
The X-E4 design really reminds me of a Leica CL / Minolta CLE which I think is super dope.

The xpro 3 somehow inspires me to shoot. It’s just really fun 🤤. The other ones look also beautiful

A new XE-3 is half the price and just as good. Use the difference to get the 27mm f2.8 pancake.

Hope the Xe5 gets the xt50 treatment of getting close to it's premium equivalent (which is the xpro series? So not sure how they might do it).
I was so hype once i heard the lens cap screw on.
Hi Benj Haisch. Thank you for the comparison. I was seriously considering the X-E4 + 27/2.8ii bundle until Fuji announced that the body wasn't WR (and I was already willing to accept some of the vital switches/dials/buttons they removed from there).
I'm curious about your leather straps attached to the PD anchor links. Did you have them customized such that you had them stitched permanently on it anchor links?
Thank you.
clever supply co makes those straps
@@buddyWalrus Oh Alright! For a minute there, I thought Benj had his strap customized by sewing it permanently on a PD Anchor links. Thanks.
I have been waiting for the xe4 for years it feels like. This will be the perfect travel and family camera for me as if I can flip the a screen and be in the photos and compose without the Fuji remote app.
Please make review of the xpro 3 with the voigtländer lens or a summicron. 🙏🏼 Nice video by the way
Those leather straps look amazing on these cameras, the lack of IBIS, is a worry for me though. But I guess the cameras are light to handle.
X-Pro3 looks wild
good job! I've seen too much no-content-hey-look-at-me-hipster-crap about these camera's. Very nice to finaly have someone that does photography review these side bij side.
I’m loving these videos. But the most confusing thing about Fuji camera is that they have so many options with the same sensors. I have the x100f and I love it. I’ve thought about the XE4 but the XT4 looks tempting too. I’m torn because I have the slightest idea seeing the differences.
Easy: Rangefinder style vs DSLR style.
⚡️I have been a happy user of x-100s since I got it new back in March 2013. Love the idea of upgrade to the latest, but this one is still more than enough for what I shoot. Besides, need to hold on to cash for when the mono version is available for purchase.
I would love to get the X-E4 if I don't already have the Sony A6000. Looks like the X-E4 would be a fun camera to have.
How it is behaving pleasee
@@NacerAbid-l7i Are you asking about how the A6000?
Great video! I will probably keep my X-E3 for a while
👌👍☀️📸
nice detailed camera comparison video!
⚡️ Super helpful video. This makes my choice a bit harder between the xe4 and x100v but I love that fact that both cameras are simplified in different areas. I find that I enjoy photography more with my film cameras (no modern features) so either of these will likely make me happy. I may lean towards the xe4 for the lens swap options, although I do find myself happily shooting with single prime lenses. A nice tough decision to make 😆.
Your explanation really hits it. Thanks
Been shooting solely on the x100v for the last 6 months and got the TCL(50equiv) a little before Christmas. I personally would love to continue shooting only with the x100v and TCL but I feel down the road I’ll end up with an xpro3 maybe 4 if it’s out by the time I upgrade. With the fujicron line up. I miss my xpro2 ! The feeling of the xpro line in the hand is definitely premium I’d say. Also ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️😂👌🏼
Interesting vid, just changed my x pro 1 for a x100v and loving it so far. Lovely form factor looks great. BTW love the leather straps what are they? Thanks
Great cameras. Nice review. Thanks. ❤
I’m curious which lens hood is on that xe4 23mm f2. Which specific brand is that vented hood
Very helpful video, Benj.
Thank you for this amazing video ⚡
I'm surprised the X100V has no stabilisation. It isn't a cheap camera, while you can't just put OIS lense on it, can you?
Nice comparison. I had to laugh that you're using PD straps with their quick-release system, but didn't disconnect any of them before filming, leading to some awkwardness. Regardless, thanks for the vid. I am a big fan of the X100 series, unfortunately these days the V is sold out everywhere and goes for outrageous used prices. I wonder if the X100(6/VI/X/Whatever) will be announced next year.
The X-E3 is still a really good option compared to the X-E4.
Love your camera straps! Why not talking more about your very cool camera straps in the video! 😀

What straps are they? I see the peak design clips but not the straps? Etsy or something?
