Okay, now once the dust has settled, can we just agree that I was a mediocre camera?

It's a fun EDC and works well for me as second camera. Though ideally focal length I'd prefer for it would be a 40 mm equivalent, not 35 mm.
>>
>>4255762
It’s bad, not mediocre. Xtrans was a mistake and the lens stuck to it is trash. Just buy a sony a7c and any 35mm f2.8.
>>
>>4255762
did the dust settle? What are the phototubers and tiktokers hyping up nowadays? film cams?

It seems like a pretty damn good camera if you want a fixed 35mm. What's the problem?

Quite doable with cameras of this side, just put it on cross-body and forget about it. GRs are even smaller, I used to have one on me pretty much all the time.

Yes. These cameras are perfect to have under your jacket, say, when you're cruising on your motorcycle down the coast and the sunset surprises you. Times you'd never have your big camera with you.

These cameras are frankly huge and a suicycle rider having one doesn’t surprise anyone because they blend in with the armor padding you tards have to wear to avoid losing half your skin to a wet leaf
>>
>>4255762
You killed small body fuji production.
And you caused XE-4 and X-pro prices to shoot up to dumb prices.
>>
>>4255818
A GR2 is tiny lol. Small enough where I can comfortably wear it under my armor suit if it rains. An x100 is easy enough to manage outside the armor - I don't have an issue riding with an x-e2 + 23mm either, but an x100 would be way more compact.
I have a lot of risky hobbies - the GR goes skiing with me too.

>A mediocre camera
Absolutely

It was a larpers toy for people that were too poor and shit to afford film for how many snapshits they had to burn through to get to one good pic but still wanted the outwards appearance of a rich tourist or art hipster with a leica. It really appealed to girls apparently because everything in a womans life is a fashion statement here in the west.

For real photographers other than homos and white women, micro four thirds, 1" pocket cams, the nikon 1 and pentax Q, etc were always better and because of this the average body of work of a 2023 canon powershot g9x user is better than the average body of work of a 2023 x100* user.

So it's for poor people who are trying to show off? What's the brand of non-poor gear you have to obviously not show off?

>Cameras
>Stealth wealth
>Wealth, at all
they're a middle class flex for the underachieving couldabeen sausage party at best, like omega watches, gibson guitars, and harley davidson motorcycles. doing this gearfag shit adds absolutely nothing to your life but a misplaced sense of satisfaction and membership in a club that includes socially challenged construction foremen and middle aged suburbanites who work for google. might as well buy snap on tools. in fact, tools are a great analogy. geeks and boomers stock the best and never use them. they have blue collar capital power if you are a hard worker and know how to use them, but are limited in their association with success.

all social value in owning a camera only applies to total fuckwits AKA forum gearfags, hardware geeks, pixel peepers, yknow

anything that even looks like a flex in cameras only does so because it's loosely associated with something ie: hanging out with celebs, that you cant approach just by buying it, and that only other nerds know that much about anyways, so it's totally pointless.

No one respects the camera you HAVE AND USE, they respect the camera you HAVE TO USE. for instance a typical wedding photographer with a a9iii receives the same amount of woah as one with a 5div because they're fucking wedding photographers. and no one whose opinion matters knows that much about cameras beyond how professional they look and that your very awesome and respectable clientele finds them satisfactory.
>>
>>4255871
I am of the opinion that studio lighting and backdrops are simultaneously the biggest casual flex to impress your fellow /p/hailures and the one gear purchase that reliably actually does anything for your work if you use them at all.

It’s also extremely liberating. Autofocus? High ISO? Whazzat?

It’s because they themselves are threatened by their own perceived brandfaggory. So when the normie masses come swarming into photography, it feels superior to talk about them and their shit shallow takes in cameras, as if gatekeeping is one of the few things that make them happy in life.

>>
>>4256049
It is relativelylarge and the photos it takes are very low quality for a camera that costs as much as a used full frame body and a much better lens. Also the fake film camera ergos suck. The new x100v is a sony a7c. The saddest part is the a7c’s weather sealing is better if you get a G series lens or a third party prime with good seals. Pick the 24 f2.8, 40 f2.5, or 50 f2.5, set auto ISO to 3200 max, jpeg to m fine, and tweak a picture profile until you like the colors. Enjoy snapshitting for $1500 ish.
>>
>>4256063
No the saddest part is unless you shoot at high ISOs you get better quality from micro four thirds. Xtrans is shit, literally defective by design for blocky shit noise that still looks nothing like film (FOVEON is what looks like film). The lens on it is shit. The result is double shit anywhere that isn't the dead center of the image.

The only reason it even does somewhat well at high ISOs is because xtrans has less color resolution, so the colors are already inaccurate and poorly distinguished just like if you maxed out the chroma noise reduction slider in post. All for a rare problem (moire) that is a simple mask and slider edit that only needs to be sloppily applied to a minority of images.
https://medium.com/@nevermindhim/x-trans-the-promise-and-the-problem-31407fa43452
It gets even worse with the new fuji cameras because PDAF cells are occupying most of the formerly green photosites. The end result is a sensor so resolution it can get severely mogged by a panasonic gh6. Does anyone here think being low resolution with shit colors is the film look? You should stop shooting superia 400 and having thedarkroom.com do your scans then.

>*a sensor so low resolution
There was a conspiracy theory going around that fuji has to stick to xtrans despite knowing it was a mistake because it's the only way sony will sell them their better sensor technology, as if the X-T5 and X-H2 had bayer filters instead, they would make a mockery of the entire sony APS-C line, and 40mp on APS-C is high resolution enough to "solve moire" on its own.
>>
>>4256081
>formerly green
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Fuck and Suck".

I exclusively used a griii during the last 2 years living in the Netherlands, during which I even won some awards, but after moving to Sicily and realizing how dusty that part of the world is I traded it in for first an M9 (not corroded but it's only a matter of time) and then a 100v.

The m9 was just too big for my run and gun style but the 100v is perfect. All the talk about inching out sensor performance feels mute to me. These things are used on fashion shoots by world-class photographers, and the 100v definitely sharper and with better dynamic range than the M9 with my various voigtlanders.

To fine camera (a delight to use, which surely counts for a lot) and I'll probably stick with it in the foreseeable future.
>>
>>4255854
i shot exclusively on a pair of rx100's for a couple years - i was very happy. bought an x100v just to have something with some weather resistance. it was fun to shoot, spit out nice files that didn't need much if any work to look their best, but it somehow felt like more of a toy than my pocketsnoy ever did.

I like the results from the sensor. I borrowed a friends xpro 3 on and off for like a year since he was one of those people who bought a camera and never used it. The film simulations were great though the jpegs were just a hair over sharpened. Not sure why I didn't go with Fuji but I've been using a canon r5 and have been extremely happy with the results, but it's absolutely a work camera rather than a fun walkabout type of thing.

>>4256414
Why larp, it's like a 15 yo camera. I've used an m10 and I know the dynamic range on those things is crap. You shoot at low ISO or you don't shoot at all.

I bought one for my wife just before the prices jumped up, but it was just too big for her and she kept taking my gr instead. So I ended up having it around and it's been absolutely wonderful.

It's sharper than the GR, and is actually a joy to use. You can run with it in a pouch or under your jacket and it's fine which makes it ideal for Street. And the ovf is kind of amazing. My only complaint is that it's not that ergonomic without the thumb grip, and that it looks a bit like an expensive toy which can draw attention. No one ever looked at my gr twice.

You are such a fucking moron its not even funny. To think that a human being went through the effort to carry and nurture you for 9 months to just have such a low iq disappointment to pop out.. Jesus...

Shit was always mid. What bothered me was they never updated the AF on the lens. It still has the old school loud chattery motor. Cant they update the motors to be silent or something? Why else are people paying hundreds more for every new revision? You would think that would be the first thing to fix. The second thing that annoys me is how large it is. Its not compact at all as people claim it to be and again, theyve never made it more compact with each revision.

the lens on x100v is the upgraded one from x100f and it is perfect. I have one and shoot wide open and it's tack sharp so fuck off cunt. Stop judging cameras based on opinions of an average /p/-tard.

Love mine. Whenever i run out the door and i need more than my phone but don't want to bring my main camera it does the job perfectly. Also love the leaf shutter and i can do fill backlight with any shutter speed. OVF is also great to compose as you can see outside the frame.

The size is nice - I had the original x100, though long ago gave it to my wife. I also have the x-e2 and the ricoh GR. X100 is right in between, doesn't feel like an ultra compact, while still being quite small. Very nice in your hands.
I also have Canon RF and EF bodies - they all have their uses.
