Just to clarify, if you really want the Fuji X100VI, you should get it, that's what I'm also saying in the video. The reason I'm suggesting this camera instead if because for some people this might be the better long term investment. But I elaborate on this in the video, so 🫡

I've been saying for a while that at the price of the new X100vi the a7cii is a really good option

@KaanSenel can you post links to the accessories you have on the camera? Thanks 🙏

Are you using a diffusion filter on this video?

x100vi is almost same price like Sony A7c… for first camera, what you recommend?

can you help me please to take a side? I'm in doubt between Sony A7CR with Sony Zeiss 55mm 1.8 lens (found for 450 euro) and in the future 24mm 1.4 or should I get Fujifilm X100VI. Money matters but not really. Always wanted to have a full frame, but I'm not sure of the size. I'm just buying for myself not interested in earning with photography. Travel about 4-6 times a year with family. Sick of phone photos especially at night time or any low light. Purpose family, friends, travel. Thank you for your answer

I recently bought the A7Cii. Haven't got to use it very much yet, but the little I've been shooting, the 7 stop IBIS seems very good. Combined with the compact size, I can easily take 1 second or more handheld captures. And that thing can see in the dark. Looking forward to spending more time with it 😊

I've owned the X100f (and was about to pre-order the X100VI). I've been shooting the A7RV for almost a year. I decided to get the A7Cii (silver) instead. I feel that it beats the X100VI in almost every way. If you really want the "Fuji" look - you can get this by customizing the creative style (recipes on the net) or in PS.

I found the comment "if you have some spare money" shows being out of touch. The a7cii is 2200, the Sony 35mm pancake is 600, the x100vi has 4 degree nd filter that's another 200. Maybe 1400 is "spare money" to you. I'm not saying the a7cii isn't a better camera for some, but the dismissal of nearly double the cost is a bit odd. (Not mentioning the 24-70 lens for 2300, as that changes everything)

Good points

a7cii vs lumix s5ii very interesting to hear why the switch ? arguably a downgrade in terms of what it can do :)

How about the a7cII vs fuji x-s20?

I bought a Sony A7RV and an A7CII when both were released. I am more than happy with both. Before that, I had been using a Fuiji X-T4, which I sold to help finance the the cost Sony gear. I enjoyed the Fuji so much that I was planning to get this new X100VI. After speaking to my nearest camera store manager, I decided not to buy it. There is nothing wrong with the X100VI. The gentleman told me that, at 70, I would enjoy the Sony's AF more. The only thing missing with the A7CII is a Sony pancake full frame lens. I think you're right, Kaan, I believe the A7CII is more camera than the Fuji. But if I had the budget, I'd buy the X100VII without giving it second thoughts.

As an a7iv owner, I am looking at these 2 options as a new EDC but leaning towards Fuji because…..tired of editing Sony Raw files!

Or better, the a7cr for the same size with bumped up resolution

Great insight! However it is like comparing apples to oranges imho. I am all into Sony, love the ecosystem of E mount and just preordered the X100VI for one particular reason - to have fun with photography. I own a range of Sony APS-C cameras and love them to bits (the A6700 is just incredible) but I want to have something that will be living outside the studio, in my pocket, have some quirky things like the Fuji film simulations and enforce limitations on me (fixed 35mm eq) so I don't even think about lugging around an extra lens and think more about the shot. Imho the X100VI is to spark creativity and have something different in your hand than your usual portfolio of cameras, it is almost an artisan camera but yes, the A7CII is overall a better camera for someone looking for a main driver. Thanks!

The price of the two cameras are close. I had a Fuji X100s and the focus was terrible and I found the fixed lens frustrating and limiting. I have been considering the VI, but your video makes think I should go with A7C II, as I'm a Sony shooter and already have plenty of Sony Glass. And I do find that having a short tele to compliment the 35mm focal length a big plus, and will say having a 20 - 24mm for wider shooting makes for a great three lens set-up. So here I am talking myself out of the Fuji X100 VI...

You have to think of resale value as well. The X100VI will probably go up in value while the Sony will drop. Plus the Sony A7c2 is 2100.00 without the lens.

Not exactly a good comparison if your really talking about the price Fuji x100v $1600 you can go take photos. Sony A7CII $2198 No Lens. A Sony cheap Sony lens will run you about $400. Cheapest lens will probably be $150 28mm from Viltrox. Fuji seems like the one and done solution vs the Sony. Also people dont mentioned you can transfer your Fuji photos to your cellphone and post online. No need for editing software. Certain Sony cameras can do this but Fuji is the only one with Film simulations that people like vs having to edit anything.

I'm honestly torn between these 2 cameras. I was about to purchase the A7C II and then with the release of the x100VI, my decision is so much harder! I know these 2 cameras arent't exactly a good comparison as the A7C II is full frame, more expensive, and doen''t come with a lens. But the thing is, I already have a pancake 35mm Samyang lens that I plan on pairing with the Sony if I end up getting it. On the other hand, the Fuji is fairly cheaper, smaller form factor, and has great colors right out of camera with all those amazing film simulations. The cons are that it is a fixed lens, and is APS-C, while the Sony is FF not to mention has way autofocus and video specs. Ughh! Can someone please help me make a decision? Are the film simulations, form factor, and cheaper price of the Fuji enough to make it worth puchasing over the Sony?

I own an a7iii and if sony line has a pancake lenses you wouldn't see me rocking a fuji camera respectfully. I own an fuji XE4 and it's a perfect small edc camera that fits in my small luxury bag while i'm travelling. It just fits my needs. I dont want a huge lens while im out

A7cii doesn't support type A card for 600mbps slog3 shoot smoothly. This is the biggest issue of this model.

I'm Sony user Sony A7III all my lenses for Sony, recently days I'm planing to get new camera to get flip,tilt screen and support 4K 60FPS ,I thought to buy new FujiFilm X100VI I like analog film style and 4k 60FPS but not flip screen also fixed lens and costly as APCS camera!! I can pay more and get Full Frame pocket size+silver edition give me analog style and it's flip screen and can use any lenses on it in+The best Auto Foucs with AI, In meanwhile I can get original Fujifilm x100 Mark one for Fun daily shot photos and stylish, so buy used one with same price of cheap lens From Ebay, you will get Sony A7cii and X100 both of them!! I think Also this alternative option.

add vintage pentax or leica lenses and focus by hand

Consider Sony 24mm 2.8 or Sigma 35 f2 [ Samyang line are small ... and itd only pros, AF is noisy ]. X100VI is still toy comparing to A7C II

Fujifilm received 50x more preorders for the xv100vi than Sony for the AC7ii.

Well, if I like the x100vi, why should I buy Sony?!:))😅

Nice try...although A7C II is a good camera too.

Bigger, heavier , no built in “35mm”, no leaf shutter, no built in ND filter, smaller EVF, it’s a long list before this camera match the Fuji and body alone is $2200

I'm a sony shooter. These machines are workhorses, feature rich and amazing technology wise... but one thing they are not: Fun! People always say the X100 is a toy and they mean it condescending. For me the X100 also is a toy but one that brings me back the joy of playing with a camera. This is something that no Sony will ever do because "fun" isn't on their spec sheets when they design a camera.

Its all the manual dials, the built in ND, the retro aesthetics, the sensor stabilization the optical view finder & the film simulations. It gives you all the fun of an old manual film camera with some modern convenances a digital camera affords. As someone who already owns other cameras the appeal of this its not maximum image quality, but to bring the fun and the slower pace of manual photography. Other small cameras seam to be built around the idea of point and shoot and have a bunch of pre programed modes and no tactile exposure controls. The fixed lens does not bother me, I'm not looking to invest in a bunch of fuji lenses or get invested in their system. Its just a fun camera that takes me back to the days when i used a Pentax K1000. Would i recommend this to someone as their first camera. Probably not.

Feel like there's lots of videos now just click baiting for the x100vi

Boring!
