Yes, great camera, but people paying between $1750-2200 US dollars for one in the used market makes me wonder if this could make Fuji put the brakes on the possible release of a new model.

Why bother with version VI if the current one is hotter than ever?

I guess we could blame Tiktokers for making Fuji the new Leica.

It is really something how this camera has come on lately. I've randomly checked since it was released and don't think I ever saw it actually in stock (you could always order one, get on a list, and wait). I know, supply chain, etc., but there is a lot of money being left on the table here. To your point, it seems that it would be foolish to develop a new model when the old one would sell like hotcakes if they could just get it out.

It’s not foolish to make a new one if they are having trouble getting parts for the old one.
