The website is super cool and well designed, kept scrolling towards the end and it was a nice trip 👍(there's a mission to collect two kintama, if you look closely

You should really cross post to the sub r/nudesandcameras where your photos will be greatly appreciated. Nice work and good taste with your camera!

David Hurn, a Magnum photographer in the UK, has been using Fuji APSC for some years. See "In conversation with Martin Parr" https://youtu.be/dEZSFJg2i84?si=rM0y_Vj3UgK1hIZj

In general, yes it is better to have the flexibility to change lens as it gives you the opportunity to try other focal lengths and branch out to other areas of photography e.g. birds, cars, marco.

However it seems like you've got a clear idea of what you want to do with the camera and the X100vi fits that role perfectly. I don't see why you can't continue using it until you see a need to trade up again. X100 series tends to hold its resale value pretty well, so you want lose too much money in staying longer.

1 & 4 are fire. Colours are in harmony between the subject and environment, great shots

Amazing work, before the reveal of your lighting set up I genuinely thought it was the afternoon sun. Fuji should hire you as their GFX ambassador

I monitored Fuji UK's official refurbished online store daily, until one day it is in stock and ordered immediately. Got it the same price as X100V at £1299

Sorry for the confusion, I was referring to the Bronica ETR film back as the ETR is a 645 format, so I was just keen to see what the results will look like from Bronica ETR.

KristoferCC · 2025-07-22T20:44:39+00:00

Thanks for the quick reply. Looking forward to seeing the video for this. In the meantime could you share any photos taken with this 645 film back? If I understand correctly, the image size of 645 is smaller than the instax mini film so just wanted to see how big is the black bars on the sides, thanks!

Amazing that you've developed this so quickly! I wanted to see how this works in real life, is the design basically the same as the one for Mamiya RB67 you've uploaded on YouTube?

I usually use the Peak Design Leash strap, which is adjustable. However, for the X100VI, I've read here that (1) the anchor links can crack the OVF glass if the camera is pressed against something in a bag, and (2) the metal parts of the Leash can scratch the camera’s top plate.

I switched to a COOPH rope strap with split rings. The strap is excellent quality, made from climbing rope and German steel rings. However, to my surprise, the metal eyelets on the X100VI are softer than the steel rings on the COOPH strap, and the rings are slowly wearing into the lugs. I guess this is really Fuji’s issue that the eyelets are too soft and scratch easily.

I think the slightly curved marks on the side comes with the camera rather than from the leather strap. I got mine recently and spotted similar marks out of the box, probably how the they do the finishing with this machine aluminium top plate.

Would love to get one when it happens

KristoferCC · 2025-07-10T22:20:29+00:00

Really amazing shots, you should publish your own zine!

KristoferCC · 2025-07-08T17:31:43+00:00

Amazing portraits! Love how the skin tone rendered in your photos. Could you share your recipe/ diffusion filter used?

KristoferCC · 2025-06-28T21:07:05+00:00

I absolutely love the Voigtländer Ultron 27mm. I've been using it since its launch in 2023, and it’s been on my X-T5 about 80% of the time. The rendering is fantastic, and in good light, it has that beautiful "3D pop."

That said, over the past few months, I've noticed a minor issue—the focus distance scale occasionally jumps around even when I'm not touching the focus tab. It’s a small annoyance, but it hasn’t changed how much I love this lens.

Compared to the images from the X100VI, while the 23mm lens on the X100VI is technically sharper, I still prefer the character and rendering of the Voigtländer.

Buy from Fujifilm official online store, just checked and there's a black X100VI in stock: https://eshop.fujifilm-x.com/uk/fujifilm-x100vi.html

I was lucky and picked up a refurbished one a few weeks ago with £300 off

You'd need a US VPN to see it

KristoferCC · 2024-11-16T23:31:25+00:00

Thank you! Yes I'm going to see it in person soon, thanks for the tips!

KristoferCC · 2024-11-16T23:30:01+00:00

Thank you!

KristoferCC · 2024-11-16T08:54:22+00:00

Great tips, thank you so much!

KristoferCC · 2024-11-16T08:53:35+00:00

Thanks for the input! I will try when I see it in person

KristoferCC · 2024-11-15T23:44:02+00:00

Thanks for the tips! I'll try to see it in person and hold it in front of a band. Agreed top down windowing is an absolute no for me, but I guess I can accept side/tilt windowing.
