Fujifilm X100 VI review

20 Feb 2024 Gordon Laing

The Fujifilm X100 VI is the highly-anticipated successor to the X100 V, packing their latest 40 Megapixel APSC sensor and IBIS into a body only a fraction thicker and heavier. I went hands-on with the X100 VI for my review so far!

Fujifilm X100V long term review

31 Dec 2023 Gordon Laing

This is my long-term review of the Fujifilm X100V, a camera that’s become a bit of a modern classic, not to mention a regular companion on my own trips for several years. As the X100V approaches its fourth birthday, a successor is inevitable, but it’s worth discussing what makes it special and equally what it doesn’t do so well.
