- Great Photography Every Day, Everywhere: X100V features a newly designed, incorporated 23mmF2 lens, ensuring you preserve those special moments at maximum resolution with minimal distortion. It also offers an improved close focusing performance compared to previous X100 models, and, for the first time in the X100 line, you can keep making images even in the toughest conditions when you attach the optional adapter ring with the weather-sealing protection lens (sold separately). This outstanding lens retains the same slim line design as other X100 models, so it retains compatibility with existing WCL and TCL lens attachments
- Designed for Quality and Speed: From fleeting holiday moments and family celebrations to hard-hitting visual stories and ever-changing city streets, X100V has been designed to always deliver exceptional image and video quality. Creating a tool this capable takes powerful technology; that’s why Fujifilm’s state-of-the-art X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and X-Processor 4 combination sits at this camera’s core. Pairing this exceptional, 26.1MP, back-side illuminated sensor and powerful quad-core CPU results in incredible quality, wide dynamic range, lightning-fast processing and precision AF performance, right down to -5EV
- Two Ways to See an Image: To truly convey the magic of a scene, you need to be immersed in the moment and X100V’s advanced hybrid viewfinder gives you everything you need to do exactly that. At the flick of a switch, you can change between the X100V’s 0.52x magnification optical viewfinder (OVF), which uses parallax-correcting frame lines to let you see outside the shot, and its 3.69M-dot OLED electronic viewfinder (EVF), which gives you a real-time preview of your exposure. You can even get the best of both worlds by using the electric rangefinder function (ERF) to activate a mini EVF display within the OVF window
- Frame the Perfect Image: X100V has been specifically tailored for photographers who are never without a camera by their side and always ready to frame a moment. The two-way, tilting LCD touchscreen is a perfect example of Fujifilm’s tailored design. This new technology within the X100V offers quick, intuitive controls and makes struggling to frame images from difficult angles a thing of the past. Furthermore, when folded flat it fits seamlessly into the camera’s slim line body, and in doing so, this sophisticated LCD touchscreen finds the perfect balance between functionality and portability
- Movies on the Move: The X100V allows you to explore a whole new world of image making with the ability to create stunning 4K video at 30 frames per second. Additionally, super slow-motion footage can be recorded using the camera’s Full HD/120p setting, so you can relive details that would otherwise be missed by the naked eye. This professional-level quality is backed up by Fujifilm’s outstanding color reproduction technology and unique selection of in-camera film simulation modes, while those who need more fidelity can record 10-bit, 4:2:2 color via the HDMI port

Steve M –
I am an avid street photographer and I took well over 20,000 shots with my x100F, and I have to say that while it did break at the end of three years, it put up with some brutal abuse and conditions. However, I cannot say the same thing about the x100V. It feels cheaper and more plastic-like than the x100F.
I dropped my x100V on the sidewalk as I was sitting down, maybe a 12 inch drop, and the base plate is horribly dented and is starting to separate from the rest of the body. I have used tape for now to cover the dented part and protect it from further damage, but I will have to send it into Fuji in the winter, when I am not shooting so much, for a repair.
My advice is to be careful, this camera is not as durable as the previous model, however, the lens is amazing, auto focus is noticeably improved, and it is perfect in every other way.
***UPDATE***
I changed my review after my experience with Fuji’s repair department in Edison, NJ. Essentially I sent my camera in to repair the damage, and they did not do what was requested and charged me $283 to replace the battery compartment, which itself was fine. Then when I contacted them to report that I got my camera back and the work requested was not completed, they told me it would be an additional charge, and would not provide me a price. The person on the phone was extremely rude and unhelpful.
I will never buy a Fuji camera ever again.
one world travel –
A longtime advocate for Fujifilm going back to their film days, their digital Mirrorless cameras have captured more than countless photos but this photographers loyalty. I have shot with numerous Fujifilm Mirrorless cameras; XT1, XT2, XT3, XE3, XPro1 but my favorite digital cameras of all time are the X100 series. With heavy experience with the X100S, T and F, the V hit all the marks that I would have hoped for bringing me back to the beloved X100V. I have been traveling the world with a Fujifilm Mirrorless camera by my side most of the time and the X100V is without a doubt a travel/street/documentary/family/everyday photographer’s best tool as it will always come with you. The updates to the V makes this version of the X100 so capable in such a small form factor. The weather sealing, the new iso dial, the tilting screen, the new lens, the larger brighter viewfinder, the performance and more just puts this over the top. If you have a T or before, it’s an absolute upgrade if you have been waiting or wanting to burn some of that hard saved money. From the F to the V, if you’re on a budget the F is a gem of a camera, but if you don’t worry about the extra cash, upgrade and don’t look back, you won’t. I’ll be posting photos soon to Instagram @thedharmalife as nearly 90% of those photos are all shot with Fujifilm cameras with a 23mm (35mm FF) lens and many with the X100 series line of cameras.
Only two things if I were to be very picky as the updates already put these as small gripes. Firstly, I miss the D-Pad for the extra programmable short cuts. I have not liked the touch swipes as short cuts. Secondly, the tripod mount, blocks the battery and SD card slot when on a tripod or capture clip is attached.
FYI: Lensmate X100F thumb grip is not compatible with X100V
Older Fujifilm leather cases are not compatible with the X100V
You may have to get a plastic screen protector (not glass) while this a new release because you will probably need to trim to fit the beautiful tilting display. If they come out with a perfect fitting glass sometime in the future, I recommend that.
If you need a case, Op/Tech makes a few that’s fits; the body, the compact D and their soft pouch easy close 523. If you aren’t using a lens hood go with the Op/Tech body. If you have the adapter and lens protector and still want to use the lens cover go with the compact d. If you prefer a quicker in and out go with their soft pouch easy close as it states it is easier I just don’t like the fit personally.
DM me if you have more questions on IG, otherwise, what are you waiting for? Fujifilm has another winner on their hands and there is nothing else on the market that competes with it for output and cost.
Craig C in DC –
Full disclosure, i’ve been in love with the concept of this camera since its first model. And i rented its previous model twice, and was generally pleased. So, how come it isn’t a 5 star love fest? Because for $1,400 Fuji is claiming a very high bar. And i work for my money. So we are going to get into it.
Where i ding it worst is ergonomics. The simulated black texture material is slippery. I get that it has a more ‘retro’ look, but at the expense of grip and slipperiness? Next, they could have added a thumb rest on the back, but they didn’t. The ridge on the front is slightly increased, but still not enough to get a good grip. So you are going to want/need a thumb rest from LensMate or similar. Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE the direct controls, the aperture ring on the lens, the visible shutter speed and ISO, etc. All that’s much appreciated. But why not give us the whole package. I want to be comfortable shooting with this camera, not staring at it on a shelf in my room.
Next, image quality. Its good, and if the light is good, it can make some nice jpegs. The color modes are fun. But the colors are NOT natural. The greens are loaded up with additional blue that isn’t there in the original picture. Hey, if you like that, great. But if you want realistic natural world colors, this isn’t it. But it can also make some really mushy looking files too if the light isn’t strong. I use and edit in raw formats. It is up there with Sony and Nikon in terms of dynamic range, beating my canon APSC camera. But i don’t agree that the XTran sensor makes for better files. It does seem to have a bit lower noise, but it is no where near what a full frame can do. My spiff with this sensor is how edges are rendered. They simply don’t produce natural looking texture and edges. Take the edges of flower petals and stalks…very artificial and constructed looking, not at all organic compared to my nikon and canon. I have both (77D and D7500) and i’ll take their raw files to work with any day of the week for this reason.
Next, the lens is really improved over earlier iterations. But even though its a 35mm equivalent lens and generally you wouldn’t think you need image stabilization, i had an odd number of photos that weren’t quite sharp due to shake/blur. Perhaps that’s due to the worse grip ergonomics? Long story short, i get sharper images with more natural looking files and truer colors, and nicer color gradations with my Canon 77D fit with my 24mm f2.8. Yeah there’s a bit more noise in them, but i can work with that. And it cost me MUCH less. Oh, and i can swap out lenses if i want to. Sorry Fuji, I’m sending it back.
Update of 12/31/2020 – I noticed a few folks commented on this review with remarks that made me think it might be helpful if i tried to provide a bit more context for my remarks. First, I DID purchase and use this camera for a good bit during the time period allowed before it needed to be returned. I’ve also rented and used its earlier model multiple times for a total of several weeks. Second, when i speak about comparing image quality output of this camera versus others, my experience includes not just the Canon 77D, but a number of APSC Nikon DSLRs and also full frame cameras from both Canon and Nikon. Additionally, i’ve owned and used the Fuji X-T20 for a good bit. To elaborate then, IMHO these recent 24 and 26 megapixel-sensored Fujis are quite good. They have a bit lower noise than my Canon crop sensor cameras, but aren’t as good as Nikon’s recent 20 megapixel D7500 and Z50. The Fujis DO have better dynamic range than my canons, and they are probably comparable to my Nikon. Third, i use Lightroom for all my raw conversion. So my comments about edge delineation and resolution may be a function of using LR. I DO stand by my comments on Fuji’s colors. Some may love them. And the various film simulations are a lot of fun to experiment with. But i don’t think they are particularly true to life. I did try to emphasize that i DO love this camera’s design intent. But i would hope we could all be open to appreciating that design intent, and execution of final product aren’t always one and the same. (e.g. again, i think there is room for improvement with the camera’s ergonomics). And if they could put IBIS in this camera, i’d be putting in another order tomorrow. (I suspect, or hope, that Fuji will more likely add it to a future version of the X-Pro series). So, it comes down to whether i can feel good about putting $1400 of my hard earned money into this camera model versus other uses. Due to that consideration, i sent this model back. I hope this helps people who may be considering this camera.

This camera is pure joy. Its beautiful design is complimented by its robust features, adding up to a shooting experience that somehow transcends those tangible things. I’m genuinely compelled by this camera to see the mundane of the world with fresh eyes. I can’t tell you this camera will do that for you, but it definitely does for me. It’s like an extension of my creative will, manifested into the form of this camera.
The tilt screen is a bit stiff, but not to the point of concern or more importantly, stymying getting a quick shot (see the overhead looking down stairs photo which was taken in less than 10 seconds). The new lens is sharp and performance snappy. Battery life lives up to what Fuji claims as far as I can tell, but I’ll be getting a second battery in any case. I’m actually a fan of the USB-C charging because USB-C chargers are more likely to be encountered in the wild rather than a Fuji battery charger which makes top ups a bit more feasible and carrying less gear possible. The economics of a half pressed shutter and rolling the rear command dial in one hand is a bit tricky, leading to an occasional unintended photo, but frankly there are other ways to address that on this camera. The deep menus and settings open up a wide array of possibilities which can be intimidating, the case for me in my first minutes with the X100V. My response? Skim the manual and then just take it outside and shoot. Play with it. Have fun. Enjoy learning as I go.
I did not forget to try the film simulations. I adore them. Classic Neg and Acros are my favorites and what you’d get if you ripped out of my head what I imagine with my eyes closed. This pair is a like a rare Hollywood power couple where everyone agrees, these two are magical together.
As an owner of the X100T, this camera is a great upgrade. The weather resistance gives me the confidence to shoot in places that would have given me pause before.
I could go into detail about all the technical things this camera does but there are better sources for that than me. What I can tell you is that the X100V resonates with me, it speaks to me and the way I shoot in an intuitive way. Whatever flaws might exist in this camera, I don’t care. And I don’t care because I’ll be too busy shooting with it.
The photos included in this review are from my first meaningful session with the X100V. No alterations or retouching other than a wireless transfer to my phone and whatever compression Amazon applied.

It is a really an unassuming camera, but it allows for some incredible versatility. Continuous autofocus works well in live view, the colors always come out great, 35mm is ideal for me, and the hybrid viewfinder and 4k video are just awesome bonuses ! Just a wow camera. The reviews were true after all.
Gibson59 –
Incredible “Jewel” of a camera with stunning retro looks with modern appointments and excellent image quality. It’s almost the perfect camera in every way. The build quality is fantastic and it feels so good in the hands. It’s an absolute joy to shoot with as well. The updated lens is super sharp, even wide open and at close-up distances. Everything is in the right place and the manual controls work so well.
Image quality is fantastic and about as good as you can get out of a modern APS-C camera. I no longer need to shoot in Raw as I find the jpgs to be more than adequate. I enjoy the film simulations which are professional as opposed to other manufacturers simulations which are more “gimmicky” and “toyish”. No complaints in the image department.
There are a few negatives though. Gone is the 4 way controller and you’re forced to have to swipe the rear screen to replicate the missing controller. I’m not a fan of swiping as it’s not as intuitive and there is some lag to the swipes. Also not a fan of the recessed buttons because there harder to feel when you’re looking through the viewfinder. I like the buttons on the previous X100F model much better.

What a pleasure to use can’t seem to put this camera down
hugo villeneuve –
Small enough to be always in my jacket or bag. Instant power on. The menu and options are overwhelming at first. Nice enlargements up to 24×36. Love it more and more.
Studiocom –
Box had marks and obviously been opened. Seal was broken and camera had signs of being handled. Sent right back.

I love the camera but I have one concern which probably will lead me to return it and buy another one. I’ve bought many Fuji cameras and all the cameras always came in a bag sealed with a temper proof sticker on the bag. This one had no sticker and the bag itself looks so used, wrinkled and torn. I think someone has bought and returned the camera:(

If you are looking for a multi purpose, compact, high performing, beautiful camera then you are at the right place.
It is amazing how compact and feature packed is this camera. It is a fun to use with all mechanical tactile and compactness that makes you bring it anywhere.
Having a fixed lens is also great as you do not spend a lot of money on lenses and carry them around. Instead you can concentrate on capturing the great moments of your life and your beloved ones.
You can always buy wide or telephoto converters. I have a wide converter that I occasionally use for landscape photography.
If you want to zoom you can digitally zoom and you will not be disappointed as image quality is great and new lens produces sharp and vivid images.
I owned Fujifilm X100F and I loved it although there were a couple of missing features such as weather sealing and fast autofocus.
I live in Montreal, Canada and weather can be harsh at times so having weather sealing is a great addition.
Besides, camera is improved in many aspects. Faster and better autofocus, tilting touch-enabled screen, higher quality body build, and longer battery life are some of the improvements.
In short, it is such a joyful and capable camera!

I won’t rehash all the incredible positives of this camera- if you’re here, you’ve likely read through the spec sheet and a number of online reviews from much more qualified individuals. I was shooting on an X100F previously that I absolutely love, and so have definitely drunk the single lens kool-aid of the X100 series. The X100V has taken that base formula and expanded nicely from the X100F, with more modern features (namely USB-C charging and a flip out screen) and improved image quality with a new sensor and fixed lens. All great stuff. My issue with this has been the quality control.
As with any new release, you’re subject to some growing pains, and unfortunately the X100V has had a few in terms of fit and finish. The unit I received has had issues with grinding in the manual focus ring. It seems like the main focus ring is slightly offset, and so will grind against the metal housing when you turn. The Auto-focus system is also generally much louder than the X100F, and really any of the current gen x-series cameras I’ve used. The cap as well, which normally fits on and slides off very smoothly is no where near as smooth as the X100F, and kind of pops off instead of sliding off. The camera does get quite hot in use over the battery, where you thumb holds the camera body.
Compared to the X100F this just hasn’t been as refined an experience – it feels rough around the edges, and at just over $2000 taxes in for a brand new release like this, I have to say I was pretty disappointed. Mind you all of the amazing things about image quality, usability and design that other reviewers talk about is indeed there, but this falls flat on a lot of these fit and finish elements. I expect that these issues will be ironed out over time, and from what I’ve read on forums fujifilm has been generally quite good about fixing these issues under warranty. In addition, Fujifilm is well known for supporting their cameras extensively through firmware support.
So overall, definitely a great camera but one I might wait a little bit to pick up so they can work out some of those kinks.
