GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?

Dslr Switchers, Travel & Vlogging — X-S10 (2020): The X-S10 brought IBIS and a fully articulating screen to Fujifilm's mid-range — a compelling DSLR replacement at a price that made Fujifilm accessible to a new audience.

Street, Documentary & Photographic Purists — M11-D (2024): A rangefinder with no screen — 60MP, manual focus, total presence. The most focused camera ever made.

  • X-T30 or X-E4 owners who want IBIS and a more comfortable grip
  • Budget-conscious buyers who want X-T4 image quality at a lower price

M11-D (2024)

  • M11 users who want to deepen their relationship with the photographic process
  • Documentary and street photographers who believe the screen distracts from the moment
