GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Street, Travel & Everyday Photography — X100F (2017): 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.
Street, Documentary & Photographic Purists — M11-D (2024): A rangefinder with no screen — 60MP, manual focus, total presence. The most focused camera ever made.
Who should buy what
X100F (2017)
- Street photographers who want a discreet, tactile camera with a fixed 35mm lens
- Travel photographers who prefer one lens and minimal kit
- Fujifilm fans who want the X100 experience at a lower cost than the X100V or VI
- Photographers who value the hybrid OVF/EVF for a rangefinder-like shooting style
M11-D (2024)
- Experienced rangefinder photographers who want to eliminate chimping and be fully present
- M11 users who want to deepen their relationship with the photographic process
- Documentary and street photographers who believe the screen distracts from the moment
- Collectors and Leica enthusiasts who value the philosophy as much as the output
