The Fujifilm X100VI, a much-anticipated release in the world of compact cameras, has been making waves online. This sixth-generation model, following the highly popular X100V, is being hailed as one of the best compact cameras ever. But what exactly is causing this surge in interest?

 

The X100VI has managed to retain the retro appeal that made its predecessor a hit, while also introducing significant upgrades. The camera boasts a powerful 40MP APS-C sensor and X-Processor 5 engine, allowing for up to 11fps burst shooting12. It also features Fujifilm’s best AI-powered subject detection autofocus, capable of recognizing a wide range of subjects from people and animals to various vehicles.

 

Another key feature that has caught the attention of photography enthusiasts is the 5-axis in-body image stabilization (IBIS), a first for the X100 series. This, coupled with a 4-stop built-in ND filter, allows for creative slow-shutter-speed handheld shots and improved image quality in low light.

 

Despite these impressive features, the X100VI maintains the compact form factor beloved by street photographers. The 23mm f/2 lens, equivalent to a 35mm focal length on full-frame sensors, remains unchanged. The hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder, another hallmark of the X100 series, also continues to be a standout feature.
