Fujifilm X100F vs Fujifilm X100VI
The bottom line
Same line, different generation: the Fujifilm X100VI (2024) moves ahead on burst speed (11fps vs 8fps), resolution (40.2MP vs 24.3MP) and in-body stabilisation. The Fujifilm X100F is still the value pick at $1,299 ($1,599 for the Fujifilm X100VI). If those newer features aren't ones you'll actually use, the Fujifilm X100F gives you most of the experience for less.
Choose the Fujifilm X100VI if…
- ✓You shoot action, sports or wildlife — 11fps burst plus dedicated subject-tracking AF keeps up with fast, erratic movement where 8fps would drop frames.
- ✓You shoot video seriously — it brings 10-bit internal colour.
- ✓You want maximum detail for landscapes, studio or large prints — 40.2MP resolves noticeably more than 24.3MP and gives more cropping latitude.
- ✓You shoot handheld — in-body stabilisation lets you use slower shutter speeds and steadies video, which the other body can't do without a stabilised lens.
