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.
Travel & Vlogging — RX100 VI (2018): The RX100 VI trades fast apertures for a remarkable 24-200mm zoom range — giving it more versatility than any previous model. 4K/30p, 24fps burst, a pop-up EVF, and an articulating screen round out an exceptional compact package. Variable aperture limits low-light performance at the long end, but for travel and events where reach matters, there is no practical alternative at this size.
Who should buy what
X100T (2014)
- X100 series enthusiasts who want the rangefinder-era X100 experience at the lowest price

- Travel photographers who want a compact fixed-lens APS-C camera on a tight budget

- Travel photographers who need versatile reach in a pocketable body
- Vloggers and content creators who need 4K and an articulating screen
- Event photographers who want discreet, capable wide-to-tele coverage
