Fujifilm X100V vs X-Pro3 - Which One to Buy

Рет қаралды 47,079

3 жыл бұрын

Hi, Everyone!
In today's video, I compare the X100V with the X-Pro3. These two cameras have many similarities as well as a few key differences. In this video, I share some of my thoughts (from the perspective of an X-Pro3 user) after using the X100V for a few weeks.
DISCLAIMER: I did purchase the X100V to test it out for a few weeks. I am in love with the way this camera works, but I don't see the need for it in my workflow, so I will be returning it. For me, the X-Pro 3 gives me everything I need. I would love to keep the X100V, but I just can't justify it right now.
If you enjoy this video, please give it a like and subscribe for more. Thank you for watching!!
If you have used either or both of these cameras, I would love to hear what you think about them! Why would you choose one over the other? Please let me know in the comments below.
My recent blog post about the X-Pro3 with many example images: www.zmendez.com/blog

Interesting. I ended up getting a x100v as a side kick to my Nikon full frame gear 1.5 years ago. Months ago, I got rid of ALL my Nikon gear. X100v only ever since and love it. I don’t do events or semi-pro stuff anymore. Just family, vacations, personal stuff. For the occasional upper body portrait, I got the tele converter for that 50mm look and the Ef-60 flash. For me, it has been truly liberating to surrender all that gear (bodies, lenses…) and just have „the“ camera. No lenses to choose from, no peak design carrying system, no dedicated bags. Just a/the camera to throw into my bag, maybe 2 spare batteries for a longer trip. Done. Limitation can be a bliss (if you don’t do photography for a living).

Thanks for sharing your impressions!! I just ordered a x100v… I really wanted to have the most compact camera I could get without sacrificing image quality. The Ricoh GR is great, but I think not as capable overall… And I’ve been a Fuji user for a while so the Fuji experience is almost second nature to me… it will complement my GFX 50R that has become my main camera now…

YT is definitely a dangerous place lol! I don’t know how many videos I watched on the x100f before pulling the trigger on it, only a few months before the x100v dropped. I ended up selling my x100f and buying the x100v. I’ve been solely shooting with the x100 for over a year and a half now, and I absolutely love it and I definitely fell back in love with photography again thanks to the x100. I really like the design of the x-pro3 and been watching tons of YT videos on it which is probably how I came across your video. Really great review video, and beautiful shots!!!! I was born and raise in SB before moving to the Bay Area many years ago, so it was super nice to shots of SB!!

I sold my X100T to get an XT3 instead of a V. I loved that little camera though. I’m wondering if I made the right choice. I loved the form factor but didn’t really use the OVF and wanted better WR and faster AF. In your opinion, how does the focus compare, especially with eye AF and low light with regards to focus hunting and speed etc.

@TheZachMendez 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for watching! I really think that the X100V is comparable to the other cameras like the X-T3 and X-Pro3. Personally, I wouldn't really consider AF a factor in the decision making. I think the biggest benefit or limitation depending on how you see it is the fixed lens. There are actually a lot of things I prefer about the X100V over my X-Pro3- built in ND filter, leaf shutter, more compact, etc. But they are all great cameras so you can't go wrong. I hope this helps - thanks so much for watching! :)

@wtr4397 3 жыл бұрын

@@ddiegorosa Good Evening. I cannot see an appreciable difference between the two. The function for me as two separate tools. The V is my go to camera most of the time. I only have the xpro3 for use with a wide angle 16mm/2.8 lens and a Viltrox 50/1.4. I do have a Viltrox 23mm/1.4 as well. However, if I am walking the streets when on holiday, I use the V. If I had to choose only one camera, it would be the V. As far as eye af, I rarely use it. I do zone focus on the street. However, when I have used it on the V, I have been quite satisfied with it. I hope this helps and is not too vague as this type of decision is really very personal. Regards...Wayne

I’ve been a m4/3 shooter for 16 years and never strayed away until I saw this camera.

Need a second confirmation to know to move on from this camera or not.

@TheZachMendez 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad you found it useful! I would say the X100 is definitely “pocketable.” However, if you add the adapter/filter combo on the lens to finish the camera’s weather sealing, it becomes much less so. I wouldn’t really call the X-Pro pocketable, but it is very easy to travel with. It’s super compact when you remove the lenses, and you can just throw it in a bag with a few lenses without worrying about the lcd being scratched. Neither of these cameras take up much space.

I haven't really counted shots though. I typically always go out with a spare battery just in case, but I don't always have to use it. Also, you can charge the camera with a USB C cable (included) so you don't need to carry around a wall charger. When traveling, I found it nice to just bring a few batteries and not worry about an extra charger since my iPad uses a usb c charger and I always have it with me already. Hope this helps!

You forgot to mention the flash capability of the X100 Series....

Good point!! That is definitely a nice feature to have. Thanks so much for watching!

@@TheZachMendez it ist not just nice... it is insane. Thanks to the leaf shutter you can use the built in flash in daylight and get impressive results... my main reason for this camera. Such a small package and everything is built in.🤩

its that x100v lens I'm really after. I have the xpro 3 but I only went for it in the hopes fuji would release the same lens on the 100v

@TheZachMendez 3 жыл бұрын

Yes! That lens on the X100V is stellar! I wish we had a similar one for the XPro3 - 23 mm mk ii? Thanks for the comment!

there is an electronic shutter and the camera is completely silent. i'm surprised someone who reviews cameras doesn't know that

So basically if you’re a dog person go for the x100v, if you’re a cat person get the xpro3

I thought after getting a Leica m10 i would never step foot into alternatives of rangefinder. And now i am trying my best holding myself back from the xpro3. 😫

Haha yes! This is what I mean about KZfaq being a dangerous place lol. Yeah, the X-Pro3 is pretty great. I've never used the M10 but would totally love to try it at some point. Thanks for watching & for the comment.

I want an xpro3 with the LCD from the 100v. A D pad would be nice as well.

Your video camera does not focus fast - the quality is really poor

@TheZachMendez 3 жыл бұрын

Wow, I'm sorry you found the quality poor! I'm using the EOS R in this video, & I wouldn't describe it that way - it's pretty great actually! Sorry it's not fast enough for you, but other channels might have faster AF. Thanks for watching though!
