What are your thoughts?

Trading an X100V impecable condition + $500 cash for a XPro3 mint condition with the the 23mm F1.4 LM (newer model)

thoughts?

This is one of those questions that I think only you can answer.

You will get almost the identical pictures from either setup. The X-Pro 3 with the 23/1.4 will be considerably heavier and larger. But of course you’ll be able to use other lenses with it. So this decision is mainly down to your size/weight tolerance and need for interchangeable lenses.

The beauty of the X100v is it’s small size with great picture output. I’ve never been attracted to the X-Pro3. It’s a beautiful looking camera but the inward facing LCD would quickly get on my nerves I think. Plus, the small film indicator LCD on the back is reportedly failing for some users over time. I don’t know if this is a widespread problem or not. It may be too rare a problem to be significant. Do check it out.
