maybe i'll get that lens to replace my 27mm pancake. although i am increasingly content to simply use the 18mm for any wide angle shooting purposes... i suppose the main lens upgrade i want from fuji is a wr version of that

I have a feeling this is a product targeted at woman and homosexuals because it costs more than some vastly superior cameras, including vastly superior point and shoots (like the canon m6ii, which has a better sensor that is closer to the real resolution of film. wormtrans is completely different and much more digital looking.)

Fuji wastes too much effort, time and money into making too many camera model lines.

The 3 gfx models are okay probably: one flagship, one "cheap"er, one fixed lens as a gimmick. But on the smaller than FF there are now a bazillion models

Buy this or wait for Ricoh GRIV? Some years ago I compared the X100V with my ex GRIII and the Ricoh was much sharper. It's like a tiny full frame camera with a slow lens. Are the newer lenses with the 40mp sensor finally as sharp as the GR?

GR will actually fit in a pocket
GR uses a proper sensor (bayer) which is literally close to how film and your eyeballs work
GR will use a modern AF motor (which is not a huge challenge, a phone uses a modern AF motor)

Fuji will not fit in a pocket
Fuji uses xtrans, which is as physically far from film a digital camera can get without being unusably bad
Fuji uses dated noisy and slow AF motors that lag behind phones from 2020
The 40mp sensor is much softer, you need to resize the output to about 20mp because xtrans has an inherent blurring effect, and the raw files take forever to process unless you bought the nicest macbook pro. Sadly you'd want to process the raw files because despite all the film sims fuji uses a CPU off a motorola flip phone to turn all those gorillions of pixels into a jpeg, so the results are blurry and dully.

Some people spend more on dildos anon.
Many people will spend more on buying new phones over 4 years.
You're getting 4.5 MP of information from this trans sensor and that's about 4,500,000 pixels for just $1900, and it includes the lens.
Why are you complaining?
This is at least 50% more than a flagship phone. Phones usually only give us 3MP.

If these prices bother you perhaps consider not buying NEW luxury cameras?

No. I understand this.
It's a tranny sensor for starters, which is why it has crippled resolution.
My point is that any "real" camera these days is basically a luxury niche product now that everyone has a phone with a usable camera for day to day snapshitting.

$1900 with a lens included is quite cheap all things considered, especially with inflation. If OP doesn't like this value he can stick with his phone or pay a little more to get something with much MUCH better specs, and without it being a mangled tranny sensor.

no i'm definitely a fuji guy but they are starting to test my patience. sure i'm a also nikon guy and was briefly a leica guy and can easily return to leica guydom. but fuji is doing too much in the controls department. i was actually interested in the premise of the gfx 100rf but the homely ergos they stapled onto it instead of an ovf or just letting it be simple and minimal really soured me. also i'm not a fan of the diamond knurling they are putting on every dial rather than the straight square knurling of the x-t series. it just feels like they had the winning formula and now are adding too much wacky nonsense

As the resident fujifag here, this is a very disappointing release, and the pricing makes no sense
The fact they couldn't make the 23 f2.8 a better internal focusing motor either, is another disappointment
Why would they not at least put in a better EVF? Why would I get this over an X-T5 which offers more or T50 which offers similar for less or M5 which is half the cost and smaller?
Fuji should've dropped the OVF on X100 (since no one uses it apparently), then merged with X-E line and just had a smaller "rangefinder style" ILC option, and the X-Pro with OVF for better "rf style"

Tbh I think I'd rather a Pen-F. I find it difficult to take a crop sensor with me when I have full frame / medium format cameras, so if I'm going to shoot crop I might as well get something out of it that I otherwise can't. That being a small and stylish camera. Until that sigma comes out, we live in a world without stylish 35mm format digitals.

It's not that it's a bad picture. The subject matter could have been taken of a filp phone and it would still be an interesting subject matter. But when you are a photographer there is somewhat of an expectation that even you nail the composition, you photos should not look like phone pictures (in the past they should not have looked like point and shoot pictures). This looks like a phone picture.

Is that supposed to be an insult? Creepshots of ugly women are better than shooting beautiful landscapes and glorifying the creation of the Lord God and his Son Jesus Christ? I'll have you know my wife and 2 children love my landscape photography because it reminds them of how wonderful God's creation is and helps them keep Him in their hearts.

Meanwhile you think people getting angry at your sinful promiscuous behavior is a "win". Sad! If you don't repent, you'll burn in hell, you know that right? Please let Christ into your heart, beg Him for forgiveness and live a wholesome life before it is too late.

I did some digging and I liked the x100v but apparently it wasnt even near worth of price, and after another research I found nikon zfc I dont really care about a fixated lens I want something compact and everyday use but I can work around either way.

looks matter more than anything, and experience is a close second.

>>4435620
the zfc is a janky product, the zf (and z5ii) is definitely worth the price, you can use leica M lenses with auto-manual focus where the camera runs subject detection and shoots for you whenever you get the lens in focus, use every nikon Z lens, most nikon F lenses, and every sony FE lens with native performance.

the x-e5 would be worth the price if the price ever came down but because of fuji's decision to produce in china, it's not going to. i recommend you buy the x-m5 instead, it's still easy to find for about $800 which is a fair price for a modernized camera and has the updated autofocus the x-e5 should also be getting. the only downside is you would only get stabilziation with zooms but that matters less than you think, especially when your gear is small enough to work fine with pic related

Imagine if fuji did the trans sensor and it wasn't transgarbagesexual but transitiontogreatness and had infrared capabilities and could also work like a thermal camera at a fraction of its res by ignoring RGB

fuji doesnt have creative people on staff. you need people with artistic autistic personalities to create things and have wild ideas. what fuji does and always has done is hire very conservative and calculating "experts" and talented businesspeople, and so through the power of committees, consultants, and focus groups, they create very safe generic products (often somewhat ripped off from japans best camera designers: leica, nikon, or olympus) with carefully chosen gimmicks.

xtrans was created when the brand direction committee decided the image sensor had to be nonstandard to lend credence to their film simulation claims, and the consultants and experts determined a slightly rearranged bayer pattern would be the most cost effective way to meet that demand.

at no point did a passionate, creative person wave their hands and talk about all the ways they could ACTUALLY simulate film. it was all business strategy. and it worked, because only really passionate and obsessed people (admittedly, a rarity, and a hard market to capture when you have leica and abundant classic cameras to compete with) would be able to both notice and care

when you wonder why they didnt push foveon or try superccd again or make a digitally coupled optical rangefinder with arbitrary framelines and AF integration off the main sensor its because of this. no passion goes into fujifilm cameras. none.

Anyone can use a shitty camera, but it takes a certain kind of cope to pay $2000 for one. Like dude, I would just set that money aside for shooting real film instead of "simulating" it by using a wormy digital camera with a blurry lens and built i vsco presets. Also, the manual focus experience on film cameras helps me be way more accurate than I would be with janky fujifilm autofocus that just totally fucks up half the time.

No phone has a 28mm or a 35mm. They're like 6mm or 10mm with smaller sensors and these are the equivalents. They just write blatant lies in the metadata of the files

lens does matter, a macro lens mounted on a potato shooting a chart in a studio will always produce a sharper image, even with your 250$ lens a m4/3 camera makes ugly pictures, go to Flickr and look at them, every pic is an ugly oversharpened iPhone tier snap, no feel, no vibe, just a picture.jpg, that's it.

Compare m4/3's pics with Sean Fryxell and Guille Lbanes, look how their Fujis produce art.

Yes if you are a rocks and leaves kind of guy i understand the logic behind buying m4/3, you don't shoot people with m4/3 m8

Honestly it's very very bad. Very bad.
So bad, it's very bad. Like very bad. Much so.
You have to realize that cameras don't even capture color. When you see color, it's post-processed. The fact that all the other cameras capture data that can be post-processed well enough to give okay looking colors but these types can't is a very telling sign that SOMETHING IS FUCKED at the sensor level.
This is a common thing for 4turds cameras and a bunch of newer budget CMOS sensors.

DP Review's studio comparison always has the color checker in the scene and anyone can download the RAWs for themselves and use that on the RAW capture to try and fix the colors.
When you try correcting colors with sensors that do this shit, you'll see the deltas are way into the crazy territory (sometimes even fucking 8+, when ~1 is "ideal" and ~3 is "good").

Not all 4turds suffer from this greenwashing.
Most cameras overall haven't.
It's kind of a new phenomenon, and typically affects newer high megapixel sensors because they don't separate colors well enough either from weak filters or just too high of a noise floor compared to older equipment.

Even Fuji's bayer GFX 100 is objectively bad at color separation. With good exposure it gives a clean enough image to be corrected, but it's actual RAW unprofiled uncorrected bayer capture is basically as colorblind as 4turds shit.
BUYER BEWARE
If you don't like green tints, you should see if there are any signs of one showing up for the camera on DPreview. It's not fool proof, but it does expose the obviously bad offenders quite well.

Not him.
If you were aiming for a x100VI or something similar, get a Ricoh GR instead.
Pocket sized, much cheaper, has customizable film simulations, sharper lens, magnesium body, ND filter, IBIS, APSC sensor, doesn't alert people.
The focus is slow but you can learn to use the snap focus to make up for that. Video is dogshit.

Poorly made, low quality shit like fujifilm cameras are meant to be cheaper, not more expensive. Its late stage capitalist hubris. And thinking people should work harder to buy worse products is pure capitalist hubris. No wonder zoomers are voting for communist iranians.

tthe x100 series viewfinder is actually really cool imo its the one thing i miss from thatt camera. really liked the hybrid display over the OVF, and being able to pop a tiny preview LCD up if needed, or when confirming focus. shame it's paired with a turd of a body. yes, i have tried three different times and it never sticks. "make the newer model better" is apparently something that doesn't exist in salaryman boardrooms because aside from adding more bing bing wahoo whistles, the autofocus was bad and the lens seemed like itt was smeared in vaseline, on the og, the T, and the V. haven't tried the VI but three strikes and all that.

I switched from Fuji to Ricoh and can confirm all of these. It also outputs regular DNGs that plays nicely with any software or app, and the mobile transfer app actually works seamlessly unlike Fuji. The battery life is bad though and the JPG engine is mediocre, but I shoot raw only anyway.

is it possible to use the ricoh without any of the lcd screens turning on? to save battery, in case you have an optical finder mounted on top
Anonymous No.4445174 >>4445178

Probably, it has a highlight metering mode so you could ensure you never lose the highlights, and there are two snap focus settings, one of which I believe is depth of field priority. I wouldn’t trust the AF without the LCD though. It’s fine most of the time but eeeevery once in awhile it’ll just completely whiff if you aren’t paying attention.

Just buy some Wasabi batteries though, for $20 you get two spare batteries and a dual usb charger hub thing. I carry my camera with two spare batteries, usb charger, mega power bank and usb cables in a small fanny pack. The whole bag weighs less than a x100v or x-t4.

The battery life isn’t great but you can still get probably 200-300 shots off a battery.

Yes, simply by pressing the DISP button multiple times. With the screen disabled, the screen can still turn on for the instant image review if one wishes.

The battery issue is way overstated in my opinion though.
I went an entire day, shooting over 400 images, using up 1 charge and one third of the second battery, with the screen turned to max brightness due to the good weather.

Mirrorless battery life is basically the rated screen time because CIPA's tests operate the camera often enough to prevent sleep mode, and menu usage and image review seem to suck more power than live view on basically everything.

If you allow a camera to enter sleep mode or turn it off when its not being used and never chimp/menu dive, even a mirrorless with shit battery life like the nikon zf or sony a7cii is good for over 1000 shots

Kinda, yeah. If the camera has the shutter button on the top of the body like a rangefinder style, you dont need a big grip.
You only need a big grip if the shutter button is sticking out in front, like a DSLR style body, and the grip also helps with bigger lenses that a larger than the body. The fixed lens x100 body has neither. Whats the point of adding a bigger grip when the body is already oversized?
