For extra clickbaity goodness: " Is the X100V Worth It In 2020?!"

Hell, yes. It's essentially a miniature X-Pro3 with a fixed, superior 23mm f/2 attached. If you can get by with a 35mm fixed field of view, which is surprisingly easy to do...It's absolutely worth it.

The OVF is nice and it comes in handy when doing low light work but that's not the reason I chose to sell my X-T2. I wanted the creative constraint of a fixed prime for a few months. It also gives me a camera + lens that's smaller than even the body alone of a Fuji ILC. It's my go-everywhere-no-excuses companion now

I bought both conversion lenses for some variety and because I got really good deals on both. But they are a bit fiddly and take away from the experience of shooting with a compact a bit so I'm not 100% sure about them.
