TBH, the "hype" has been building since the launch of the x100 and with each version it's been getting better. I wish Fuji upgraded the lens to match the resolution, battery for longer life, and fully weather sealed it. Over 80% of the people buying this camera, will be selling it with in the next year because they paid too much for a "point and shoot" and its sits on the shelf.
if you have the money and you really want it, go get it. simple as that. i view this as something that you will not get any eyeballs all over you compared when you have dslr with medium or large lenses, but depends on where you live. here in my country this unit is a ghost, not hyped at all. then i didn't feel like thieves are up to me. it's also the first time that no officer come at me and ask me what i'm shooting for days of using this. its really easy to bring and put out lol. really really had fun using it. but if you have the x100v already i recommend that there's no need to upgrade but again, if you have the money and you really want it, go :)
People are lying to themselves thinking the V is any comparison to the VI for a fixed lens camera. The VI is so much more versatile with cropping, low light shooting, and video. The V should only be bought at half the price of the VI. it's such a huge difference.
I got mine. I don't think it's overhyped or overpriced. The closest thing Sony has to it is the RXRII which is 3,000 bucks which is bulky, it has no ND filter, doesn't shoot 4k. Canon has the G7X mark 3 which has 4k for only 10 minutes, terrible battery life, Only 20megapixels, No 4k 60. Then there's Panasonic's Lumix DC-ZS200D, which has slightly better specs than the Canon.
Now, Fujifilm India has revealed the price of x100vi in India and too high. On paper it say's 1600 US dollars - And that does not translate to ~1.35 Lakhs Indian rupees but 1.8 Lakhs Indian rupees (i.e; ~45K more) . With this pricing, seriously, it does not make any sense at all. X100v initially was just 1.2 Lakhs Indian rupees. X100vi's 33% hike in pricing is just odd. I'm very much decided now, not to go for it. I rather will increase budget a little and get some compact full frame - That's a wise decision.
i just recently sold my x100v 3 months ago. the vi is tempting but since fuji announced they are bringing the new recipes to some older cameras I am going to go against the grain and get a xs20. Lucky i can shop on base and they have a deal with the xs20, the kit lens, a filter for $1,100. I just look forward to the firmware update.
Hey! Im new in photography, and i take picts mostly for instagram. I dont have the x100v yet and im contemplating wether to get the new x100vi or a used x100v for a really good deal. Which one should i get i actually need an advice from a professional 😂
Do you have any screen issues with the 6? A lot of people saying it doesn’t quite fit right and there is a clicking sound when lightly pressed in the top corner of the screen
I only have a budget for one camera, im torn between xt5 or x100vi, I'm always trekking and hiking, sometimes travelling seas and staying in an island, which will you recommend? Thanks
Wanna hear something? My nerdy yuppie neighbor, self-appointed PRO, on account of the price of the camera he owns, just came to me, with radiant face and shaky hands, LOOK!, he said, I've got my X100VI here!! I got mine before you!!! Yes, I calmly answered, it's because I ordered the SE. Waddayamean SE? Fuji SE new edition? Never heard of it. I answered back: Not SE model, stupid, the X100VI Special Edition!! You had to see his face. Priceless.
@@JHawk Yeah, but my stupid neighbour doesn't know that. Therefore his face!!! This was supposed to be a joke for high ID level. I hate to spill my talent on the wrong audience.
Preordered mine on a well known camera site and on release day was told it was back ordered until June. My local camera shops sold out and there’s dozens of local resellers asking $2500 for it. I’ve really just lost hope at this point of ever getting one at retail any time soon.
SOLID video man! If I did more traveling I’d definitely consider looking at one of these or even simply picking up the 100V. Love the compact size and the silver is DOPE. ALSO, that’s a good looking guy at 5:52 😏
Thanks for the help I was considering it but you convinced me exactly what I wanted from a camera I can’t yet to see your pics with this camera on social ✌🏻
What are those vertical poles called that you have your lighting attached to? Like the one behind your gaming setup? I checked your Amazon store but not seeing them there.
As you place your order for this camera, I urge to think and try to remember… where are those Cabbage Patch Kids dolls that you rushed into the now defunct ToyR’Us to buy? Where are they? Are they collectibles? Have you played with them? Do you still like them? Or do you find them silly? Now think… do you have $1600 to spare? Do you really need this camera? A point and shoot, with fixed lens? Yeah, it’s got simulations. But so does the X-T1. Do you have this much disposable cash?
that camera is so dope.. love the look and compactness. i've been reaching for my film camera over my mirrorless these days but I feel like the x100v/vi would top both for me. glad to see you're enjoying it!
When you say you can transfer photos from the camera to your phone - have you actually managed to do that? The wifi / bluetooth sucks on both the V and V1
@@JHawkwow, I tried everything but nothing. I've seen other youtubers say the wifi / bluetooth is a pain. Maybe you should do a vid showing how you pull it off.
@@andrewcrossley2448 yep, I should try that. I was expecting to be able to blue tooth control the camera as with other cameras….which has occasionally been useful…….but not possible with the x100v or v1.
Overhyped or well deserved? Let me know down below!

Def well deserved, camera like this for people that don't want a huge setup I think thats a huge W. Great video!
100% agreed!
Yeah, I got my order in just waiting
Fingers crossed for you!
@@JHawk oh thank you
Dope video! May I ask, where did you pick up that soft shutter button? Dig that matte green color.
Etsy!

Agree to disagree!
Easily the worst take I have ever heard since the x100vi came out.
Nah, they are the same as a decoration.
@@Nqk27123456 Decoration for your room maybe, a lot of people can actually make use of it.

Found this video from a random x100vi search, enjoyed your video, saw your channel name 😂 (I’m a KU alum), and instantly subbed. Good stuff.
Haha appreciate you!!
great detailed video, bro!
Appreciate you bro! Gotta tap in to your new on tonight

@@JHawk xt5 make more sense. Only thing that I may need to check good pancake lens. At this price x100vi seems high.
W vid
Thank you!
@JHawk you should do a video on your custom recipes that you've saved/made. :)
I will!
That olive green strap with matching filter looks super snazzy
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amazing video man! Does the x100VI shoot open gate?
It does not!
Hoping to pick one up eventually 🔥
You'd love it bro!
Hat goes crazy
Want one?

Just ordered mine! Will hopefully have it by June 🤞🏼 can you link the filter you have on it? Great video!!!
Ayeee congrats! Check polar pros website!
Coming over from the broadcast channel. Great stuff! Do you have a link to the rope strap?
Appreciate you! And yep check that amazon link
Would you recommend the 1/2 or the 1/4 pro mist filter? I see there is two options
I believe there is a 1/4th and a half. I use the 1/4th

Totally agree! Its fun
Could you post a link to the shutter release you put on it? I can't find an olive green one
Had to find on eBay!
Was there any gap if your using the haoge adapter on your x100vi?
Nope!
i heard the soft shutter causes problems with the shutter? Does that happen to anyone?
I’ve heard people say that, but never heard anyone experience it themselves lol
You should check out the Ricoh GR III or IIIX. I’ve tried several times to get the Fuji but no luck, but the Ricoh is nice as well.
I’ve heard solid things!
Solid as a rock
My brotha you gonna have everybody going to cope you a 🔥🔥🔥starter!!!
Haha 🤘🏻

The green aesthetic on point 😮💨

A few people recommend a usb c cable as it’s much faster for transferring.

I know I'm a bit of a fanboy but I'd grab that camera in a heartbeat if I could. Also that green camera strap is SMEXY.
Fireeee
Best Man! I love your Videos 🖤
Glad you like them!
Aye coming from IG ✌🏼
Appreciate you!!
Who makes the strap?
Linked on my Amazon in description
W vid my guy 🦾
Ayeee appreciate you!

Totally agree!
