When the first images of the new Fuji X100V leaked I felt a little frustrated that Fuji decided to add a swivel screen, rearrange the buttons, and make all edges sharp and clean. I thought it kind of mimics Leica. And it does to a certain extent.

But when the camera was announced, and I saw the detailed images and videos, I started to like the concept. There is still something I like more in the previous model – X100F but in general I have to admit the changes are for good and the design may grow in me once I get my hand on the camera.

My love for Fujifilm dates back in time. After the film era, when using Nikon FM3a, N80 and F100 with Fujifilm and Ilford 35mm films (I was never a big fan of Kodak film), my first experience with Digital cameras was with Nikon Coolpix. I was then switching back and forth between Canon and Nikon small point and shoots or bridge cameras, until I got my first Nikon Digital SLR in the beginning of 2009.
