Fujifilm X100VI: A Long-Awaited Review
Macfilos, a leading photography blog, recently received their own FujifilmX100VI after a months-long wait. While the camera arrived last month, a busy schedule kept it sidelined until now.
The X100VI, a compact 35mm camera, has been highly anticipated by photography enthusiasts. Macfilos’ Mike Evans, a seasoned reviewer,was eager to get his hands on it, but other pressing reviews, including the Leica D-Lux 8 and the Leica SL3, took precedence.
Evans, known for his preference for compact travel cameras, found himself drawn tothe X100VI’s portability and capabilities. However, the Leica SL3, a flagship mirrorless system, occupied his attention for two weeks, delaying his exploration of the X100VI.
Now, finally, Evans has begun his review of the X100VI. He notes the irony of acquiring a coveted camera and then letting it sit unused for almost a month, a testament to the demands of his profession.
The X100VI, with its black finish, stands in contrast to the silver presscamera Evans used earlier. He shares his preference for black Leica M models, citing their lighter weight.
Evans’ first impressions of the X100VI include the time-consuming setup process, a stark contrast to the simplicity of the Leica menu system. He also finds the Fujifilm menu’s long descriptions, condensed into a single line, frustrating and difficult to read.
This article highlights the excitement surrounding the Fujifilm X100VI and the challenges faced by reviewers in a fast-paced industry. It also provides a glimpse into Evans’ personal preferences and his approach to reviewing cameras.
Stay tuned forthe full review of the Fujifilm X100VI on Macfilos.
