Re: Critical specs of X100VI : 23mm F2 lens

I'm going to be the contrarian and push outside the box.  I would propose these changes....

Sensor stays at 26mp, BUT goes stacked.  Lower noise, faster processing, so biased towards quality at higher iso.  Most that are using the x100v aren't pushing the envelope to where more megapixels will benefit them. Also reduces temps for video use.

23mm f1.8 - combined with above, allows for greater use at a wider range of lighting conditions.

new processor, taking advantage of better AF system that's being rolled out.

flippy screen

better evf, slightly larger.

options to also do HEIF in addition to jpg.

Slightly move compact.

slightly better flash specs.

Use the same w235 battery as x-t5, longer usage, standardizing on it.
