Re: X100V Worth It? 100% yes

You kind of hit on a point I'd been mulling over as well. Even if I gave up Classic Neg (and Acros and a bunch of other features) and got an old body with the 18/2 and 35/1.4 (two lenses I love) I'd have 2 focal lengths instead of 1, but otherwise a lot less functionality in the body, and price wise, I'm a couple hundred apart, maybe. Does make the X100V seem like a fair price, maybe a bargain.

It is easily "the best camera of 2020" and a massive upgrade over the previous version. It's also cheaper than the 2 other recent Xtrans IV premium cameras with Classic Neg (X Pro 3 and XT4). I have never even seen or touched one but it is clearly a magnificent camera.

Fujifilm made a near perfect hybrid when they released "the camera of the year" XT3 and they have done it again this year with the perfect street and fixed lens camera. Even if you don't use multiple features it is still amazing and worth it imho.
