Súper gracias por estos vídeos Sam

Again, beautiful pictures.

Thanks Samuel...very nice video!

Some of your best photos.

The clouds in this video were paid actors. Awesome work man can't wait to get mine!

Beautiful as usual Sam!

Great episode. You past right by me here in Bend. I agree about the Oregon inspo…lots to capture. I’ve been rocking the VI for almost a month and really liking it. Looking forward to seeing more from this area.

Beautifully shot

Luna Sea is always the jam, nice video

now THAT is called a thumbnail 👏

These are some of your best photos to date!🔥 the GFX100S and the X100VI are the perfect workhorse and everyday combo and this video shows that!👏🏼 great work Sam!✨

Nice atmosphere with the chillout music and the wonderful landscape pictures of Oregon... It's something the non Fuji shooters do not get: gorgeous colors easily out of the box. Other cameras also produce "colorful" images, but the aethetics are different, the color harmony of a Fuji is just better, better "tuned" for a lack of a better word. I've shot Fujifilm since 2003 for a reason, although they have been technically inferior to Canon or Nikon.

Waiting on my preorder to go along with my X-S20. I need to visit Oregon sometime.

Lovely work Sam! Put us out of our misery with an edit video. 😂 Keen to see some processes.

I'm such a big fan of your photography and the way you edit your photos! I would highly appreciate if you could do a tutorial on how you edit your photos :)

Nice video as always Sam, I always love your style, pacing and photography. I got one on launch, decided to sell my favourite ever camera, the Q2 and go with the x100vi as ‘my camera’ but quickly realised after loving the V so much before owning the Q2, that the VI wasn’t for me. I struggled to see in 35mm after being so used to 28mm, and sold it two weeks later, and getting a Q3, which I’ve decided to start integrating into my wedding work alongside my Sonys. I do wish I’d liked the X100vi, but couldn’t get on with it at all after the Q- I really didn’t like even picking it up Do you still shoot the Q series at all?

All the photos at 10:26 are beautiful! Can’t wait for a new video on your editing :)

Great images, and cool video. I will anywayl stick to my Fujifilm X-Pro1 for photography for another year or so :)

Love the video! If you were to sell your LUTs or LR Presets, people would go crazy! Your eye for tones and colour is unmatched

I just want my VI 😢.

Fire!

I like the photos too but those nature scenery clips are insane!! I'm so impressed by X100VI's video quality. Plus, just wonder, is Oregon still cold and snowy these days?

Hi, really good. Which kind of picture profile generally use for landscape on x100VI ? Do you use priority of dynamic range? Thank you.

Usually Velvia - i typically meter for highlights, and bump up a stop or two to preserve shadow detail a little bit

I was on the fence, between the 100VI and the XT5... But wound up choosing the X-T5 because I just wanted the option to switch lenses.

@Scoober222

Having owned both, the xt-5 with a pancake lens isn't much bigger than an x100vi. Neither of them will fit in your pocket and both require the same size bag if you wanted to keep it concealed. So though there is a size difference in depth, it makes little to no difference in actual practice as the x100vi size doesn't really have many tangible benefits when around your neck compared to the xt-5. The Ricoh GR line on the other hand has real benefits as it can fit in your pocket, where the X100 line isn't much smaller than the rest of the Fujis w/compact lenses. So like you, I'd rather have an Xt-5 so I can choose my lenses (especially for video) and occasionally pop on a compact zoom when I need it.

@@Scoober222 Right ! My fav focal length is 50mm but, I've been shooting more 40mm recently and I get that w/ the 27mm on the XT5. Never seen it before but once it was on there I was like, "maybe this is how the X100VI is ?!" Loving it so far and loving this setup more than my previous XT4 w/ the 16-55mm lol.
