Fujifilm Debuts X100VI Mirrorless Digital Camera | Fujifilm [United States] (2024)

VALHALLA, N.Y.,- FUJIFILM North America Corporation is pleased to officially announce the highly anticipated launch of FUJIFILM X100VI digital camera ("X100VI", pronounced X100 Six), the newest model in the popular X100 Series. X100VI offers outstanding image quality in a compact, lightweight body, and features Fujifilm’s legendary color reproduction technology, which is best experienced through its revered Film Simulation modes, a feature, users have come to expect from all Fujifilm digital cameras, along with In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) and enhanced video capabilities.

“The viral popularity of our X100 Series cameras has shown us time and time again that making images is as tactile as it is technical,” said Victor Ha, vice president, FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Electronic Imaging Division. “X100VI continues this tradition by bringing our most advanced imaging technology to an image-making experience that feels organic and familiar to creatives of all levels.”

Product Features

• X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR and X-Processor 5 deliver high image quality and high performance
X100VI is equipped with the back-illuminated X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR sensor1with approximately 40.2 megapixels. The sensor has an impressive pixel structure that allows light to be efficiently captured compared to prior X100 Series cameras. Additionally, ISO 125, which on the previous X100V model was only an extended sensitivity option, is now available natively on the X100VI. With its fixed, 23mmF2.0 lens, X100VI delivers sharp, high-resolution images.

X100VI comes with 20 of Fujifilm’s popular Film Simulation modes, including the new REALA ACE mode, which applies a diverse range of distinctive tones to the user’s images. REALA ACE mode offers faithful color reproduction and high-contrast tonality, making it suitable for a wide variety of subjects and situations.

The camera incorporates an impressive autofocus (AF) prediction algorithm for reliable focusing, even when recording continuously-moving subjects. X100VI uses the subject detection AF X-Processor 5 to accurately track a range of subjects. Built using deep-learning AI technology, it can detect animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes, trains, insects, and drones2.

• Enhanced high performance to maximize X100VI’s range
X100VI is the first camera in the X100 Series to incorporate a 5-axis, in-body image stabilization function with up to 6.0 stops3, while generally maintaining the X100 Series' characteristic compact size and lightweight, only having increased in weight by 1.52 ounces over the previous model.

The "Advanced Hybrid Viewfinder" allows the user to switch freely between the optical viewfinder (OVF) and the electronic viewfinder (EVF), pursuing the rangefinder style of photography that has been a hallmark of the X100 Series. The EVF is equipped with a high-resolution OLED panel with approximately 3.69 million dots, optimizing the immersive shooting experience.

The "Electronic Range Finder" (ERF) function allows a small EVF to be simultaneously displayed on the OVF. Using this feature, the photographer can view either the entire frame or the area of critical focus, increasing the capabilities of a standard optical viewfinder. The ERF function is highly convenient, especially for street photography.

X100VI is capable of 6.2K/30P movie recording, a first for the X100 Series. The camera is also equipped with a tracking AF function during movie recording to ensure high-quality content creation.

X100VI offers an accessory-free, native Camera to Cloud integration for Adobe’s Frame.io, which allows users to wirelessly connect any X100VI to an active internet connection, authenticate it to Frame.io, and automatically upload photos and videos just moments after they are created. This can drastically reduce the amount of time needed to reach the end of any post-production workflow. X100VI is the latest in Fujifilm‘s digital camera portfolio to integrate Frame.io’s Camera to Cloud technology, joining X-H2, X-H2S, and GFX100 II in offering the capability.

• Sophisticated, functional product design
As with the prior model, aluminum is used for the top and bottom surfaces of the X100VI body. Aluminum, which features a high degree of malleability, is pressed and machined for crisp, clean edges, and the surface is finely blasted for a smooth texture. In addition, anodized aluminum is used on the camera surface to produce a high-quality finish.

X100VI’s ultra-thin tilt LCD monitor can be stored in a fully flat position, a design leveraged from the X100V. The stylish, integrated body design allows for a variety of shooting styles, from high to low angles. The shape of the grip has been fine-tuned to ensure a secure yet comfortable feel. The positions of the buttons on the back of X100VI have been designed to maximize ease of operation with the right hand, enabling extremely comfortable shooting while utilizing the viewfinder.

• Wide variety of compatible accessories enhance X100VI’s capabilities
Weather resistance is available for X100VI when the optional AR-X100 adapter ring (MSRP $49.99 USD/$50.00 CAD, available in silver and black) and the PRF-49 protection filter (MSRP $55.99 USD/$70.00 CAD) are used in conjunction with X100VI’s lens. This allows the user to continue making images in challenging weather conditions.

Fujifilm’s optional LH-X100 lens hood (MSRP $139.99 USD/$100.00 CAD, available in black and silver) is also compatible with X100VI. In addition to being lightweight and precisely crafted from machined metal, the hood is cleverly designed not to obstruct the field of view when looking through the viewfinder, thus achieving light-shielding performance.

Two separately offered FUJIFILM conversion lenses allow the user to change the focal length without changing the optical performance of X100VI, thereby enhancing the photographic field. WCL-X100 II (MSRP $349.95 USD/$450.00 CAD, available in silver and black) is a dedicated wide conversion lens that multiplies the fixed focal length by approximately 0.8x, converting it to 28mm (35mm format equivalent), while the TCL-X100 II (MSRP $349.95 USD/$450.00 CAD, available in silver and black) is a dedicated teleconversion lens for narrowing the field of view by multiplying the fixed focal length by approximately 1.4x, converting it to 50mm (35mm format equivalent).

Adding the separately offered, LC-X100V genuine leather case (MSRP $79.99 USD/$100.00 CAD) ensures the X100VI can be carried in style. The battery and the user’s memory card can be inserted and removed from the camera without the need to remove the camera from this case.

To celebrate Fujifilm’s 90th anniversary year in 2024, a special Limited Edition of 1,934 X100VI cameras will be made available by Fujifilm, worldwide.

FAQs

Is it worth buying a Fuji X100VI? ›

The images have a certain look and feel which I like. They are film-like thanks to the X-Trans sensor. It is the kind of camera where "M" or "A" beg to be used. Those are my reasons for recommending an X100V or X100VI.

Why is the Fuji X100VI so popular? ›

The film simulations

One of the key reasons behind Fujifilm's popularity is their propriety film simulations, and of course the backbone behind the saying that Fujifilm users proudly photograph in JPEG . One of the more exciting announcement was also the availability of REALA film simulation on the Fujifilm X100VI.

Why is the Fujifilm X100V so hard to get? ›

After the Fujifilm X100V became a 2023 Tiktok sensation, it's been virtually impossible to pick one up new, and consequently secondhand prices are even higher than new. Thankfully for those still in the X100V wings, it appears that a newer model is on the horizon, if the Fujiaddict rumor is accurate.

Why is the Fuji X100V out of stock? ›

With Instax cameras predominantly being targeted at the younger generation, the X100 camera ends up being a great step up for many young people. This bridging of the gap, social media, and the fact that the camera has become a cultural icon has created demand that has been difficult for Fujifilm to keep up with.

What is the picture quality of the Fujifilm X100VI? ›

The Fujifilm X100VI offers cutting-edge image quality with a 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor, advanced autofocus with subject detection, and 6.2K/30p 4:2:2 10-bit internal video recording. It includes 20 film simulation modes, a built-in 4-stop ND filter, and supports Frame.io Camera to Cloud.

Why are Fujifilm cameras so expensive now? ›

It's simple supply and demand. There's a lot of demand, and Fujifilm didn't manufacture nearly enough supply. So now, if you want an X-E4 you're going to pay through the teeth. Even the X-E3 is selling for more than it was, although it still seems pretty affordable—if you can't find an X-E4, buy an X-E3 instead.

Is X100VI made in China? ›

Yes, the X100V is a hit. The new X100VI is going to be even a bigger hit. Fuji has made the decision to move the manufacturing of the X100VI out of Japan and to China.

Is the Fuji X100VI weather resistant? ›

Weather-Resistance

Using the AR-X100 and PRF-49 together make the X100VI weather-resistant. The combination confidently repels dust, moisture, and temperatures down to 0°C (32°F) , so you can keep creating in more challenging conditions.

Does the X100VI have zoom? ›

This focal length is ideal for street scenes, landscapes, or portraits, making it the most versatile go-to option for everybody. For occasions where you need a closer view, the X100VI provides digital zoom options.

  • Nikon Zfc.
May 2, 2024

Why don t professionals use Fujifilm? ›

“First and foremost, Fujifilm cameras lack the robustness and durability that professional photographers – ” (which, if you recall, Elliot is not) “- require from their equipment.”

Is Fujifilm X100V for beginners? ›

Absolutely! It's a great little camera for an everyday carry. With its ease of use and intuitive operation, the Fujifilm X100V is a joyous machine to have a bit of fun with.

What was the original price of the Fujifilm X100V? ›

USD 1,399

Is the Fuji X100VI weather sealed? ›

A few features carried over from the X100V now feel like quirks: a single UHS-I SD card slot limits the video and burst-shooting capability, weather-sealing is still only achieved with a lens adaptor attached, and perhaps even the lens focal length (a full-frame equivalent 35mm) is limiting for those that like to shoot ...

Can the Fujifilm X100VI change the lens? ›

It is however important to remember that this is not an interchangeable lens camera. You are somewhat limited by the single 35mm full-frame equivalent focal length. You can buy adapters that will give you options for 28mm and 50mm focal lengths but in my opinion, it somewhat ruins the aesthetics of the camera.

Can the Fujifilm X100VI take videos? ›

X100VI offers advanced video performance in a compact, lightweight body. Create movies up to 6.2K internally at 30p in 4:2:2 10-bit color. 4K/60p and high-speed 1080/240p are also available, maximizing video flexibility.

Where is the Fuji X100VI made? ›

And despite reports that the X100VI is being made in China rather than Japan with as many as 15,000 units per month since production started in November, it will still take further months to carry out all deliveries for X100VI pre-orders.
