I mean, the X100VI is a fantastic camera too, but if Fujifilm was charging $3,000 for it I’d say that was ridiculous too. It’s hard to swallow a $5,300 RX1R III with this corner cutting when a medium format GFX100RF can be had for $500 less.
It’s not that this camera is bad…I just think it’s a terrible value.
The pre-order price at B&H (for example) for the RX1R III is $5098, compared to $4899 for the GFX100RF. Given that the Fuji has been out for a bit, maybe there are ways to get it for less. But just that simple comparison puts the difference at $200.
Not saying that fundamentally changes the point you are making, but wanted to clarify the price in the US.
A lot of the Fuji medium format cameras are on backorder at many places here in the US. I guess that is somewhat typical for Fuji, but it makes me wonder if they are prioritizing shipments to more stable markets vs the US right now,
