Guys, I lucked out. I got an X100F for just 500 dollars (556) after taxes and shipping. My theory was that they didn't know exactly what it was that they had. Big give away was that they most likely used the first option when making an auto-listing on eBay. On top of that, the address was from some rich part in New York and the seller told me she only used it once.

The shutter count was low, and I've been using it since May. Yeah, it's not the V or VI, but it's such a fantastic camera and you can't beat the price. I'm so happy with it. I used town the V but had to sell it when money was needed. I've learned from my mistake and I will never sell this thing unless I acquire the VI first.

^_^

Some shots I got with it!

Congratulations!
I'm guessing this is equivalent to my x pro2?
I think I like it more than the newer 26 megapixel sensor.

I still like to find a interesting film recipe and just go out with it for a weekend. I even won some awards just fucking about and getting lucky.
>>
>>4352025
I believe so. Both cameras are 24 MP. I know there's the complaint of having a fixed lens, but I actually enjoy having that. It gives me a challenge, and when I have that fixed frame in my head I have a better idea what to do with my shots.

I wish I had this thing with me during my trip to Japan. I literally got it a month after coming back. I plan on using it on another trip next year!

I shoot with the 27mm pancake almost exclusively and In fact I kinda wish it was 23.

I never expected my camera to actually go up and value but I could sell my xpro for more than I paid for a brand new. LoL

I took mine to Paris last year and the dream scenario happened where some cute girls walked up to me and took an interest in the camera.

Yea congrats. It's not a lot of camera for a lot of money but 500 freedombucks is decent.

Fucking hate zoomers and their Midas touch, anything that trends on Tiktok rockets in price.

based, happy you found something to replace something you shouldn't have sold
always nice to see that chance deals on the ebays are rare these days but do still exist if you get lucky

Good for you, OP!
Now you can enjoy photography again. Just going out for the sake of walking and taking some photos, because after all, that is what this hobby should be about.
I will do just the same now, well, with the little difference that I will walk to the gas station to fetch me some breakfast.

I like this photo of yours. Delivers a nice mood to me. Maybe it's because of the diagonal lines and the round shape mixing up in this way, or the vibrant colours. Or both.

I wish I could learn better to analyse, why I like a shot. I think it would help myself to a more advanced understanding of photography and consequently also make my own photos better.

Congratulations, enjoy it!

pgytech sling bag. Surprising quality but it does look a bit like a camera bag so if you live in a shithole that can be a problem.

Otherwise try looking into a secondhand peak design, you can get the remarkably cheap.

Should have bought an om5 and 17mm f1.8. Fuji doesnt have working weather sealing and xtrans is so bad it takes 40mp to look like an ai upscale of 20-24mp bayer. Now all your pics are blurry and you’re afraid of rain.
>>
>>4352095
Buying old tech is the last bit of reprise from a world that pushes the incessant agenda to upgrade every few years. I'm a zoomer and I gravitate towards older stuff.

I hate being outpriced by someone who wants a camera only as an accessory, then fucks it up by poking their finger through the shutter curtains or scratching the lens with a dirty t-shirt.
>>
>>4352143
While I can respect your suggestion, I like what I have. I got a great deal, it takes amazing photos, and it's nice and slim. Very covert unlike the Rebel that I used to own back in high school and college.

I've been doing more traveling as of late, and this thing is just fantastic for all of that. It's the perfect camera for me. Also, I'm more of a landscape photographer than a people photographer. When it comes to taking stills it's very, very nice.

>sonic and knuckles for shits and giggles

What happened after that?

lovely.
i was watching a bunch of fuji lenses starting at £50 with botched nonsense listings. but everyone else found them and the bidding went up to normal price, maybe next time
>>
>>4352442
ebay? Very hard to get good deals there.
>>
>>4352493
Yeah. It's possible sometimes if the item doesn't get too much interest but real popular shit gets Jewish fast
>>
>>4352432
She was interested in the camera, not the photographer.
>>
>>4352526
Sounds like a lame dream then.
>>
>>4352432
They did photography as well and wanted to play around with a xpro before buying one.

I told them a little bit about it and took their portrait in black and white, which they liked. They did ask for my Instagram but since I didn't use it it was just kind of awkward. I should really make one.

its called samefagging
some purchases are regretted so hard the mind must find a better way to cope

>feelings: but it looked cool in the listing photo... cope mode engaged!
same reason people rant about the specs of their r3 - only here there are not even specs to brag about so they have to make up stories about how girls totally care about their camera

that is the only way fuji is anything like shooting film, you feel bad about buying it and the only way you can brag is by making up stories about how girls are suddenly interested in coming near you
