No charger Fuji? Seriously? Following Sony’s footsteps much? I remember the days when unboxing a Fuji product felt like unboxing an Apple product. Olympus and Panasonic are the only companies still putting care into the packaging. And of course Leica.
I love the camera but in Australia it`s retailing at $2300+., it`s the same price as the Sony a7lll. I know they are a different style camera but it`s a bit pricey.
Once again, premium priced camera and once again no manual, no charger. Oh wait we got the little plastic ring clips...yeah. Of course no manual could be a Canadian thing as it is with the XPRO3. Fuji Canada or Fujifilm Japan needs to give their head a shake, I stress this is in my humble opinion.

I have pre-ordered a X100V. Q: What Fujifilm filter adapter and filter are required for WR? Existing parts or a new adapter? Also, will the Fujifilm X100F official case fit the X100V, or is a new model required? Thanks ... looks like a great camera!
Thanks Nolan. The AR-X100 is the same one from the original X100. The X100F case will not fit the X100V; there will be an X100V case coming out at the same time as the camera is available; later this month.
Don’t forget the memory card. God it reminds me of an unboxing video where near the end, the guy says, “oh, and don’t forget to turn it on”. Good advice. 😒
It would’ve been dope if they just added the adapter with the camera ! But then again for all the people upgrading that already own it would have two adapters 🤷🏻♂️ haha
Thanks for the video! One question, I just got my X100V from Amazon, the camera is brand new but I noticed that the plastic bag for the camera body did not have the silver Fuji seal as I saw in some videos. And it doesn’t look like there was a seal there that was removed. Is the seal not used for every camera? Thank you so much!

Hi Fuji Guy! When they say weather sealed? I mean is there a difference between weather sealed, and just weather resistant? "Is weather resistant, not as good as weather sealed?!?! What I mean is I have the Fujifilm X100T, was this model weather sealed when it had the LHX100 and the filter on?
The X100V is WR "Weather Resistant", which is the same designation as our other WR models (X-T3, X-Pro3, X-T2, etc.). That is the only designation for Fujifilm cameras. Unlike the X100V, where there are sealed points on the camera itself, the X100T body itself is not WR Weather Resistant. Even with the AR-X100 and filter on the X100T, it should not be subjected to any inclement weather.
Can anyone answer this question I bought a x100v on amazon, the plastic bag didn’t come with the fujifilm seal sticker . Just want to know if it needs to come with it or not. Thanks.

Could see him struggle not to mention or recommend any filter brands right there
Will the lens hood + the adapter ring but without the filter make it full weather seal?
You will need to have the filter in place on the adapter ring to make it weather resistant.
What would have better performances: my Fuji xt3 with XF27mmF2.8, or x100v? (I assume it would highly depend on the x100v lens)
It wont change much if you dont know how to use properly your camera.
Wyatt Hunter don’t see the point of your answer. A camera is meant to be learned.
Will the first versions of the WCL and TCL conversion lenses work with the X100V? I bought them with my X100S.

Yes. The X100V does have digital tele-converter settings for 50mm and 75mm. The X100V has built-in a four-stop ND filter.
Does the Weather Resistance still apply if you use a non-Fuji branded filter (i.e. not the PRF-49), as long as it's paired with the adapter ring?
As the quality will vary from one brand to another, we can not speak to the weather resistance when using any non-Fujifilm branded filter.
