Awesome story. I home develop my own black and white film, in a world of instant digital everything, its nice to take a slower pace sometimes 😀. Typically I shoot my late dad’s Olympus RC 35 or...

Placed 51^st in the challenge. Was running late to pick up my wife at the airport, but managed to grab this long exposure shot of a popular pier here in South Florida.

Placed 58^th in the challenge. Snapped this one with the closest camera at hand, my almost 60 year old Yashica 12 TLR loaded up with some Ilford HP5. Just proves you don't need yesterday's new digi to get a happy moment :). I love the halo effect from the ceiling light. The decisive moment indeed.

Sell me something that’s along the experience of a Fuji X100 but film-based for under $500 new and you’ve got a compelling product - niche to be sure.

It's about the same, but once you've shot an A7iii (or faster), you're ruined ;)

The whole snowflake thing has been done to death by now, don’t you think?

Mine lives in my work backpack and thus goes on every business trip with me. It’s almost on me as much as my phone. To the uninformed it looks like a two-toned, 1950s era, harmless hipster film...

Picked mine up for $640 with 1500 clicks. I recommend it!

If Fuji was Sony I’d say they’d absolutely leave the F in production if the V was significantly more expensive. Not every company plays the Tim Cook handbook though where the older models stick ...

It's not a surprise to me that an RX Mark II will outperform an X100, it costs 2-4x as much (depending on if you're comparing either used or new). I shot the original RX1 way before the X100 ...

Any PM that has done hardware projects in a large corporation with price hedging and production ramps will tell you, the V's spec was decided and a frozen decision likely many months, if not years ...

Prices drop for those who wait. Got my X100F in perfect shape with 1500 clicks for $640, new it was $1299. Why? The new one drops in a few days and will be $1500. I’m sure it’ll be great,...

Inherited my dad’s P900 and it has been all I could ask for in a superzoom, excellent for shooting wildlife, airplanes and of course the moon 🌙 I do dabble in RAW edits, but use my A73 for that.

I would imagine it comes down a bit more when the V is formally announced and there's more people letting their F go...

They'll probably send the F down-market, Sony style for the price sensitive people (starts new at $899 woohoo, used below $700!)

A lot of DSLR defenders here, but you couldn't be more right. Smartphones are eating everyone's lunch in the sub $700 camera market, and what's left in the ashes will be mirrorless.

Brand new I suspect they'll chill at $900, but BH/Adorama effectively brand new in condition 10 would be ~$800.

By February 4th we're expected to know what the X100V is, and also is not. I don't expect the X100F to ever go for more than about $700 for a very lightly-loved example again after that ...

Budget?
