If you have X100T and you care about stills and not video, you will not get much by moving to X100V

I am trying to wrap my head around the idea that the original poster said he will never use the tilt screen. Low-angle shot? High-angle shot? I have an F, and though I like the camera a lot, I cannot tell you the # of times a tilt screen would have helped me on a shoot.

Many photographers bought into the X100 design for the rangefinder shooting experience - that is, using an optical viewfinder with the right eye and keeping the left eye open to assess the scene / action as it develops.  They (or perhaps 'we') do not use the EVF / back screen at all for composition, and rarely for reviewing the shot.  This might explain why the original poster does not see the V as a significant upgrade.
