Got myself a handlebar bag for my upcoming gravelbike which will predominantly work as a camera bag. I took the XT2 out together with the 35mm F2 on of my recent rides and found the setup too big / annoying to easily stop / snap and put it back. I’m now playing with the thought of an X100v. Sure another (bigger) bag is an option but I like to keep it light.
Although all the previous versions of the x100 can be had considerably cheaper, I know from myself I’m a pixel peeper and I could get frustrated by the lack of image sharpness when used wide open.
Oh, First world problems!
I've got the X Pro-3 with the F1.4 23mm, and the X100V - and I have to admit that of the two it's been the X100V that I've taken out with me every single time recently, it's a really good camera.
I've also got an XT-2 that seems to welded to the 16-55 F2.8 that I bought just before lock-down, and whilst it's much more versatile in terms of focal length the small size of the X100V means that when it comes to a choice of the two of them the X100 usually wins.
With that said, these choices have been when going for my government mandated hours walk, if heading out the door to take photographs I may make a different decision.
