First week with an X100V
After gifting my wife an X100F as her first camera, I got myself an X100V for a good price (€800 with 15k shutter actuations) and I love it!
The flexibility this camera gives me is awesome. I’m also impressed it resolves quite great detail and sharpness even at f2.
After many years of using Sony (mainly SLT and mirrorless) I finally found a great edc camera to take everywhere. I’ve tried many (from Leicas DLux to Sony RX100s, even mirrorless with pancake lenses) but never felt so good as with the X100v.
Creating and editing my own recipes feels quite intuitive (not much different from creating my presets on Lightroom), though I’d appreciate having more slots to create my recipes . 7 feels a bit restrictive.
I’ll continue using Sony for the rest of my photography deeds (mainly professional shooting and film scanning), but I think I’ll stick to the X100 for quite some time as my everyday carry camera.
PS.: I’m considering blacking out the whole camera (I started with the top plate logo). Has anyone done this?
