How much does the X100V cost in the UK?

Fujifilm

Fujifilm X100V

Name: X100V
Brand: Fujifilm
Availability: InStock

The X100V was the camera that started a cultural phenomenon — demand so outstripped supply that it became impossible to buy at RRP for over a year. Its combination of retro styling, fixed 35mm-equivalent lens and X-Trans 4 sensor made it the definitive street camera of its era.

GearFrame's Take

The camera that made fixed-lens popular again. Still one of the best walking-around cameras ever made.

🌆

Street 7.6 Strong on its 35mm lens, discreet body and autofocus. The definitive modern street camera — discrete, weather sealed, and loaded with Fujifilm film simulations.

⚠️ Not Ideal For

🏛️

Architecture 4.6 Held back by pixel-shift high-res mode and its 35mm lens. Scored down: fixed prime longer than 28 mm.

🌌

Astrophotography 4.6 Held back by astro aids and pixel size.

📷

Casual 4.8 Held back by ease of use and generation.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
