Verdictwhich should you buy?
X100F — Street, Travel & Everyday Photography: The X100F is the camera that made the X100 series legendary — 24MP X-Trans III, a hybrid viewfinder, and the best fixed 35mm compact lens available.
X100V — Street, Travel, Everyday: The camera that made fixed-lens popular again. Still one of the best walking-around cameras ever made.
