Yes, the prices are crazy. That is why when the 6 is announced, hopefully, in April, I will pre-order as soon as they are posted on B&H or Amazon.

That announcement will be scalpers’ worst nightmare. I still believe if Fuji can't keep up with X100v’s demand, why rush to release a new model?

"rush"? It has been 3 years since the 5 was released. Fujifilm tends to update the X100's on a 3-year cycle.

Agree, but the hype was never that high with all other models. I am just saying that if they can't keep up with demand it means the market still want the current version.

Cameras are not like cars that they need to release new models every year regardless of sales. Time will tell, maybe we will see a 40mp VI in a few months.
