Don't buy a fuji X1006

The Fuji X100 series is awesome, but I don't think it's for everyone. I nearly picked up the Fuji X100vi earlier this year at the launch event, but I didn't. In today's video, I'll walk you through my Fuji X100vi alternative and why I think it's a better camera setup.

I do want to make it clear that I think the Fuji X100v and Fuji X100vi are great cameras. I love the images from the Fuji X100 lineup but if you're looking for a more all-rounder camera that can do much more, check out this Fuji alternative setup!

I already bought one and for me, this camera is about light weight AND film recipes! The sony setup is light and great for sure but is lacking the recipes that fuji has to offer IMO. This is what makes the X100VI an amazing camera

[gamerwzz]

I thought about buying this Sony for a while but ended up going with the Nikon ZF and absolutely love it!

Just picked up the a7c ii last week and decked it out with the Smallrig bottom with the wood handle *chefs kiss* Absolutely love it so far. Much more convenient daily driver than my A7Rii or FX3, and the autofocus keeps up with my kids 10x better 🤣

I’m using the Lumix S5ii with Sigma 16-28mm f2.8 or 28–70mm f2.8 most of the time. Really like the Lumix 50mm f1.8 prime too

[ShirazChanawala]

I have the same setup and also a 40mm F2 and feel it's one of the best setup. I also have a Leica Q3 and most likely will sell as the Sony A7cii is light years ahead in terms of technology and performance especially it's best in class autofocus.

I got the Zeiss 35mm f2.8. I love it but at times I wish Sony had a smaller lens for the camera.

I got the X100V and I just couldn’t get into it. It just was never the Sony quality I was used to … I know it’s a different kind of camera … but I think the A7CII and hopefully the future pancake 28mm would be perfect solution.

Hey bro really love your videos but is it okay if you could do a review on the viltrox 20mm 2.8 with the a7cii?❤

[Itsberndc]

Guys I’m a professional photographer for about 5 years now and I’ve been a canon boy since i started taking pictures. I have the canon r6 and the r with sigma 35, 50, 85mm 1.4 but I’ve been debating if I should buy this Sony a7c ii because I want to down size my equipment. Is this camera the best first Sony to get to slowly move to Sony?

[TopshelfJunior]

A7Cii or A7CR... Purchasing only my second SONY camera ever, torn between the two..

[sagarmadha]

Own an A7C + Kit. Keeping aside the F Stop challenge, what a compact setup it is.

[sincosy]

Why are you talking about Sony Colors while showing us Canon R5c samples??

[martinpickard]

I’ve the x100v twice and sold it twice.I did get an xpro2 and love it….I won’t be selling my Sony gear anytime soon ….

[prof_jesus]

Zac, review all the Sigma contemporary "i" lenses with f2 with the a7c ii! How they perform, how they feel and the inage quality. Please!

[jasoncaban]

The 35 2.8 Zeiss weight 120G!
Other opción is 40mm 2.5 G (173G)

[joshuachubbphotography]

Zeiss has a 35mm 2.8 lol no need to get the 24 and crop.

Also Viltrox has just released a 28mm pancake that’s way smaller than the 24 as well.

[Juan-cige]

Nice try! But Fuji’s color is supreme. Fujifilm color inspires you to shoot more

[LavyNia]

Sony a6700 with a 24- 70 mm from sigma

[dirkpehrke]

The Fujis doesn’t go to f/1.8, but to 2.0. Not much of a difference, o.k.

Hello Sir, from india 😊

I hope this message finds you well. I would like to seek your guidance on a few questions regarding building a career in photography without formal college education.

1. Is it possible to establish a career in photography without a college degree, relying solely on certificate courses, whether online or offline? Or is a college background essential for success in this field?


2. Is pursuing a career in photography advisable, given the current trend where most people use smartphones to take pictures? I have observed that photo studios are often underutilized, primarily serving customers for passport-size photos and official document pictures. Considering that photography equipment is costly, would investing in this field still be a sound decision?


3. How can one decide which photography niche to focus on? For instance, I have a passion for cars—does automotive photography exist as a career path, and is there scope in it? Or is the potential limited to areas like wedding photography, street photography, or studio photography? How does one choose the right photography field?


4. What camera and equipment would be ideal for a beginner? How much should one invest initially? Would it be better to start with a mobile phone to gauge interest in photography, and then decide whether to invest in more professional equipment? Could you provide insights on mobile photography vs. camera photography, as well as the different types of cameras and equipment? Additionally, in the initial phase, is it feasible to earn money by uploading photos on platforms like Instagram or online photo-selling websites?



I would be grateful if you could make a video addressing these queries.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
