The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Compactness, optical quality, jpeg file quality, extraordinary viewfinder (not even Leica has one like it!), Film simulation!
Cons:Exceptional optics, but not very versatile focal length. I would prefer a multifocal lens, like "Tri-Elmar".
Opinion:I've been using this camera for about six years now. I bought it to have a quality compact camera that I could always have with me. Out of habit, I always shoot in jpeg+RAW, but I have to say that with this camera I get quality jpeg files and I almost never need to use RAW files! As I have already said, I believe that with a multifocal lens (Tri-Elmar type : https://www.juzaphoto.com/recensione.php?l=it&t=leica_tri-elmar_16-18-21) a camera of this type could be 'perfect'. It is a versatile and customizable camera that makes you rediscover the essentiality of photography. The autofocus is versatile and almost perfect; I normally use manual focus with the "Back-Button Focusing" option. Another positive feature of this camera is the B&W files of excellent quality and with different options. The viewfinder is perfect and versatile: you have an excellent optical view, with bright bezels, and at the same time you have a good electronic viewfinder available. I have some doubts about the optical add-ons (of excellent quality) that reduce the compactness of the camera; but they are not mandatory.
Cons:Afc uncertain, battery life, display neither tilting nor touch (there are those who feel the need, I do not), lack tropicalization and sensor not stabilized. But after all, in such a small space it is unthinkable to have everything.
Opinion:Its greatest merit, which is why it was created, is to give the opportunity to those who own it to always have with them a reliable, fast and high quality compact, which takes away all possible doubts about which goals to bring with you. I have owned this compact for a few months, I almost always carry it with me and I must say that it has radically changed my way of photographing. The Fuji X100F has an exceptional optics in my opinion, some say that it is too soft at f2, for me it is absolutely not a defect as I have always been a lover of pastel / vintage optics and then closing 1 stop becomes really sharp (not that it is not already at f2). Small, unnoticed, fast in focusing (except in afc where it is uncertain) it has a sensor that supports very well high ISO when necessary, and every key / stick is in the right place. Intuitive menu and lots and lots of possibilities to customize your shots. The jpegs do not need practically pp and it is possible to move them to mobile via integrated wifi. For lovers of b / w there are acros and monochrome with the possibility of increasing or decreasing the contrast already in the shooting phase. Integrated 3-stop nb filter. The cons are obviously there, and they are those listed above, in the X100V version several of these have been solved, but for me as an amateur is already too much this penultimate version to which I would have added at least the tropicalization to be able to be quieter. I recommend it to those who do not have it and I advise not to sell it to those who already have it.
Cons:Battery, not tropicalized, optics coming out of the barrel, AFC a bit 'limping (as necessary as it may be useful in the contexts in which it is used), screen not tilting. Connectivity
Opinion:It is a machine that forces you to carry it with you, because it is small and easy to put in your everyday bag. It relieves you of the task of choosing the optics. I got to try the big sister x100v. In the end (both for a matter of money and for other reasons) I opted for the x100f which in my opinion has some fundamental features: 1. The yield of the lens. It is a street car but also excellent for impromptu portraits of friends etc. In this sense, I consider her better than her sister. The bokeh is less hard and has a yield that in these cases I really like. It is less contrasted and softer, while not lacking in sharpness. Considering that in street the apertures are closed, the difference in sharpness (if any) is irrelevant. At full aperture, it is soft but for my way of using the x100f it is a non-problem. Closing the problem is solved. 2. The center shutter. It's the main reason I took this car. I wanted to experiment with the possibilities that opens up the use of flash without limits to synchronization times. Having also a built-in flash (however limited a flash in the camera is) is an addition. 3. It does not intimidate. It's small (mine is black) and stealthy. As written in the cons. The battery is poorly lasting, I haven't tested the durability on the x100v, but I don't think the improvement is great. And anyway 2 batteries (3 for safety) and you're good to go. Obviously being x trans III lacks some goodies of my main machines with xtranas IV. Save the automatic WB, rename the film simulation and my now beloved Classic Neg. As well as the ability to save in raf the JPEGs taken with the digital telecoverter. This is an unnecessary software limitation. All it took was an update. Among the cons I have included Fuji connectivity. Problem on all machines, but this even more because of its nature. Not having the Classic Neg. I downloaded some very reliable presets for lightroom mobile. Including the possibility of downloading raf in addition to JPEGs would be great. And speed up. I solved it with a smartphone card reader. Finally, making an examination of pros and cons compared to the previous model I can say that I miss more the features of the xtrans IV sensors previously listed, compared to the optical improvement of the lens that for me is irrelevant or even I think I prefer the yield of this.
Opinion:What can I say... I'm a big lover of Fuji's x100 series, I've had them all since the first one. An aesthetically wonderful object, always carrying it with you is a real pleasure, it weighs nothing and gives you emotions in using it. I don't have big hands so I hold it well. I use it for everything, street, reportage, travel, portrait and every time it amazes me. Thanks to the wide customization possibilities, I created my favorite profiles and I always shoot in jpeg + raf, to have a security file if I want to change settings. The baked files are wonderful and the raf well modeled with Capure One, even in the free version. Af not lightning, but suitable for the use that must be done with this camera, for a photograph designed. The fixed 23 (35 mm equivalent in ff) is perfect for everything. The dials of times and apertures require you to do "photography" reasoning. Good dynamic range with ample recovery possibilities on highlights. What amazed me most is the quality in print, because I am still very attached to printing which is fundamental in photography. I expected more, if I have to find a defect, from the iso seal, not exceptional. I spend the last two words for the digital teleconverter integrated into the machine: usable only for jpeg shots, it allows you to have a crop at 50 mm and 75 mm. I tried it numerous times at 50 mm, the camera automatically processes the image, applies a "smart" sharpness producing a file of about 16 mp still perfectly usable for images printed up to 30X45 without excessive loss of quality.
Pros:Files, Rings, Optical viewfinder, Lens, Weight, All
Cons:Don't own it
Opinion:It is not a camera it is a brush that accompanies you in the magical art of photography. It's hard not to fall in love with it, the file with the classic fuji colors is wonderful so that the raw is almost useless. It takes some time to get used to the size and 35mm but once you get the hang of it becomes pure addiction. I also use it in weddings for the creation of black and white. Against? The only con is not having one.
