I realise I’d be losing a camera but the x100f is selling for a very good price on eBay right now and it could find more lenses.

but part of me thinks I’ve loved the x100f so much because of its small form factor!

help?!!!

I can only answer on an emotional level. I sold my first X100V to get an X-T4 to experiment with different focal length. And while it is the technically superior camera, it was not able to trigger the same feelings for me. The X100 is such a beauty. I missed the rangefinder style, the OVF, and especially the small size and weight, because I like to have my camera always with me. After about half a year later I had a sleepless night full of longing and regret, so I just went out and bought it again and couldn’t be happier ever since.
So if you already use words like "love" for the X100, don’t sell it if you don’t need the money for something really urgent.

This comment resonated with me. There really is something special about the x100 and I love how small it is.

would I have taken as many spontaneous pictures with my camera if it wasn’t so small and lightweight? I’m guessing by your comment - probably not.

but do bear in mind that I have an x100f not a v which is comparatively slower. And slower than my xt30. Plus the xt30 has the flip out screen.
