Re: Happy with my purchase, but .......

Yes, I agree the X100V is the "best" of the X100 series cameras simply because Fuji did make technical improvements over the X100F but how much better probably should be classified as "incremental"
People seem to forget, or maybe they didn't know to begin with, that the X100F was rated the very best fixed, single focal length camera, a person could buy for two years in a row,

That's better than the Leica Q series, the Sony RX1 series, the Ricoh GR series or any other prime lens camera.
I've owned 2 X100S cameras and bought the X100F when it came out but skipped the X100V because, in actual use, the F is hard to beat. I might buy the next iteration of the X100 but even that may not be enough improvement over the F to persuade me to spend the money.
With all that said, I definitely think if someone is buying a new X100 series camera the X100V will be a camera they love.
