Good video completely filmed on the VI to give a sense of what is possible.
Resistance is futile. I'm going to open a new Pay Boo card today and place my order!


If you're serious, plenty of small shops that have a way shorter line and still won't charge you tax (probably).

Yeah, I am buying X100VI. As I get older, I have less motivation and less desire to spend time post processing images. I expect I will use X100VI a lot like my smart phone, i.e., fix horizon in post and/or crop a little and post online. 90% of my images are with 35mm lens and of my family and friends anyway. This video summed it up well for me.

If you could recommend me a few shops, I would appreciate it. If you don't want to list them here, please direct message me.

I got the XT3 when it came out and really enjoyed just doing in-camera processing for like a year.

Got a tracking number on my VI. No delivery date from UPS quite yet.

My first Fuji experience will have to wait. I called B&H and they are not giving out any possible ship dates at least for my pre order. I'm not letting B&H sit on my money for potentially years at this point for a point and shoot. Too bad. Was kinda excited to try it out. Maybe in 3 or 4 years when they catch up with orders😀

B&H does not charge US customers for pre-orders until the item is shipped. They only do a preauthorization on your credit card at the time of the preorder.

Money was gone from my PayPal account by the time I finished the pre order.

Yes, with Paypal, they charge as soon as you place the pre-order. With a credit card, they wait until it ships.

I was way late to the game. So it'smy fault. Sometime last week. I have a couple other pre-orders at different spots or on lists so maybe I get lucky. But don't think so at this point. Still holding out hope Sony sees this and does an RX1Riii. That's what I really want. But my odds are probably better with the Fuji.😞

UPS is showing tomorrow ~2pm (from pixel connection).

No movement on B&H order yet, but I imagine it'll go out later tonight.

You get your B&H orders from UPS? Mine have always been FedEx

No, my pre-order from pixel connection is UPS. B&H is showing FedEx as usual, just no shipment confirmation yet.

I ordered my last night. I don't expect it to ship for another month or two, but it is just a camera and I have bunch of them already, so I can wait; it is not the end of the world. In hindsight, I should have ordered as soon as pre-order started but I wanted to see some real reviews and although we still don't have those yet, the photowalk podcast sealed the deal for me.

When, oh when, will B&H send out those shipment notifications. Will keep my fingers crossed.

Based on some reports, depending on where you ordered it, an order today or yesterday may see a 6 month wait.

I get all my notifications from them between 1pm and 4pm EST.

If you were not on a pre-pre-order list, your odds of seeing this camera within the next three months even is probably slim.

Anybody who hasn’t put an order in yet is completely out of luck.
