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

Really ?

I had the original X100, the S and the T. The T was such a let down, I sold it early and took a pass on the F. I did buy the V based on the new lens and the tilt screen. What I was not expecting was the quality of the files I’m getting out of the V are materially improved from the 16mp versions.

If you would look beyond features (yes, I know this is DPR) I believe you would find plenty of reason to run from the T and embrace the V. For one, XTrans has improved substantially, perhaps the sensor, perhaps a current version of Lightroom CC, perhaps Iridient X-Transformer improvements and perhaps the fact I finally invested the time to learn how to configure X-Transformer to my taste.

Not to mention build quality is noticeably improved and the eye sensor actually switches before what you intended to shoot moves on. Then of course there’s the new lens — which you don’t even mention — did you not notice it? I find the V a significant improvement over any of the past models I owned. I'd say it finally feels close to a finished product and shoots as though it’s almost not there.

I don’t even know how to turn on video. This is from a stills shooter.
