Fujifilm X100V Review
The Fujifilm X100V is the camera to get if you like the idea of a Leica rangefinder, but also want modern amenities like autofocus and video. The Fujifilm X100V ($1,399.95) is the fifth iteration of the company's chic, retro-styled compact camera. As with earlier entries, it includes a hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder, an SLR-sized image sensor, and a wide aperture prime lens. This version offers a few welcome upgrades, including new optics, a better viewfinder, weather protection, and a tilting LCD. That makes it an overall better camera than the X100F, and one that is certain to compel owners of older models to upgrade. It also makes the X100V a PCMag Editors' Choice.A Familiar Design, Improved The X100 series has evolved from a handling perspective over the years, but its basic look and feel are unchanged. You can get it in your choice of all black or a two-tone black and silver look. The viewfinder sits in the corner, offering your choice of an optical or through-the-lens electronic view, and the lens is a fixed prime with a moderately wide angle of view. The image sensor is as large as you'll find in Fujifilm...- Improved lens
- Dust and splash protection
- Tilting LCD
- Hybrid optical-electronic viewfinder
- Dial-driven control
- In-camera film looks and Raw processing
- 11fps bursts
- 4K video
- Retro looks in black or silver
- Omits optical and in-body stabilization
- Lens filter required for weather protection
- Limited to UHS-I transfer speeds
- Autofocus not always immediate
Fujifilm X100V review: The fixed-lens champion
You might need to be as rich as a king to buy one, but then the X100V is indeed king of the fixed-lens compacts. Close-up shooting at wide-open aperture settings is still a problem, but the addition of a bracket-mounted touchscreen show that Fuji is evolving this series for the better.- Adds useful tilt-angle bracket for screen
- Unique hybrid viewfinder is amazing
- Great lens and image quality
- It's a camera like no other - in looks and operation
- Lens isn't silent
- Close-up focus still has sharpness limitations
- It's rather expensive
- Should be weather-sealed out of the box (rather than optional kit)
Fujifilm FinePix X100V Digital Camera Silver - Brand New review
With top and bottom plates milled from single pieces of aluminium, the X100V is a tougher camera than 2017’s previous model, the X100F. And the new sensor and processor combination combine to make the X100V a more capable and better performing camera than its predecessor.Fujifilm FinePix X100V Digital Camera Silver - Brand New review
We hope you enjoyed our review of the Fujifilm X100V in this first episode of Head to Head. We ended up with one for and one against purchasing this camera. At the end of the day, the answer really rests with how the camera fits into your workflow, and more importantly, how you intend to use it.- Sleek Design & Make, Film Simulation Modes, Compacy & Durable
- Confusing Buttons & User Experience, No IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization), No Built-In 4-Stop ND Filter
Fujifilm X100V Review
With a refinement of specifications and design over the years that Fujifilm has been making the X100 series, the latest in the lineup is a wonderful camera to use. Not only is it a joy to work with, but it also produces excellent images. If you have a penchant for street photography, it’s the ideal choice for you. If you have a limited budget, perhaps look towards older models in the line-up.- Beautiful design
- Tilting touch-sensitive screen
- Sharp lens
- Fixed lens not hugely flexible
- High asking price

Fujifilm FinePix X100V Digital Camera Silver - Brand New review
The Fujifilm X100V retails for $1400 and is available in an all black or black and silver option. At this price, the X100V is a tough sell when compared to the new X-S10. The IBIS enabled X-S10 is similar in size, can be purchased for $1000 (body only), and can be paired with a focal length of your...
