GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Street, Travel & Compact Everyday Shooting — X100T (2014): A polished step between X100S and X100F — the electronic rangefinder OVF mode was unique, and 16MP X-Trans delivers beautiful files at an accessible used price.
Video, Filmmaking & Hybrid Shooting — GH5 (2017): The GH5 redefined what a consumer video camera could do — 4K/60p and 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording made it the independent filmmaker's tool of choice for years.
Who should buy what
X100T (2014)
- X100 series enthusiasts who want the rangefinder-era X100 experience at the lowest price
- Street photographers who value the unique hybrid OVF with electronic rangefinder overlay
- Travel photographers who want a compact fixed-lens APS-C camera on a tight budget
- Those drawn to the classic X100 design before the X100F's resolution and joystick upgrade
GH5 (2017)
- Independent filmmakers who need 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording without a dedicated cinema camera
- YouTube creators who want 4K/60p, a fully articulating screen, and unlimited recording
- Photographers who shoot primarily stills but need serious video capability as a second
- GH4 owners who want 4K/60p and 10-bit — a significant step up
Quick take: The gh5 has the highest resolution at 20mp; the x100t is the most affordable; only the gh5 is weather sealed. Scroll down for the full spec breakdown.
