Yeah. The RX100 series just doesn't work for me, although I am constantly tempted by the one with the long zoom. Of course, that's the price of a new X100. I'd rather get pants with bigger pockets and get an X100.Y'know, I sold my X100F last year, and later acquired a Sony RX100M3 to "replace" it.
It didn't.
Too much like a computer with a lens on the front.
Too small.
No in-camera raw development capability
Another app to use
Another battery charger
No "soul"
The Sony is now up for sale and the funds raised will go to paying for a lightly used X100F. I reckon if I'm careful I can score one for slightly less than I sold mine for.
Why not a V?
Tilty screen...
No, Leeland, you misunderstood me. A tilty screen leaves me cold. The lens "improvement" has yet to be proven in real-world use and to be honest I had no issue with the previous lens formulation, finding it characterful rather than lacking.
I'm back with an F, for sure.
Camera development up until last year was "vertical" in the sense that IQ was constantly getting better.

I think it would class it more as a preference than a concern. My objections to tilty are based on a combination of durability, increased complexity, increased cost and functionality that I neither want nor need. I get that some do, but I like to have the choice of cameras that don't.Is your concern due to potential durability issues or increased size? Or something else?
I think Fuji did an excellent job with this tilt screen. Flush inside the body, with no protrusion. When not needed, it’s neatly tucked away and looks/acts just like a fixed screen.
I agree I used it a lot when I had the XT10 but for me the lens upgrade is the icing on the cake.After using tilt screens for some work, I’ve come around to seeing their usefulness. Adding the tilt screen and weather sealing to the x100 made it very attractive to me.
That's the thing if you can't live with the focal length or it's just not your sweet spot forgot it but for me it's bulk or convenienceFuji could do well with the "V". They included three major upgrades (WR, tilt screen, and lens) that comprised the majority of the complaints about this camera. I posted earlier (and elsewhere) that I really wanted an X70 with an EVF and a 35 mm lens. Now I can have it with WR as well. I really have to resist. We are going on a Grand Canyon trip the summer of 2021. We are travelling the entire length of the canyon on motorized rafts. I wanted to take the Sony A7RIII but I really need a wide zoom like the 16-35, which conveniently costs about the same as the X100V. I guess I could take the XH1 with the 14. Or a new X100V with the wide and tele converters . . .
That’s one of the great things with the x100 series. The TC and WC make it very versatile. As well as the built in TC.That's the thing if you can't live with the focal length or it's just not your sweet spot forgot it but for me it's bulk or convenience
Yes it's not for everyone and let's not forget it a lot of money especially to most of us oldens.That’s one of the great things with the x100 series. The TC and WC make it very versatile. As well as the built in TC.
It’s a lot of money to some of us not quite as oldens too.
More info. The black version will be available 3/31. I have never been an early adopter, but this is so tempting:
