Look, we all know the Fujifilm x100VI is going to be a great camera. It gives consumers exactly what they’ve been asking for, and the pre-orders are the proof. But don’t you want to be different? You don’t want to be exactly like everyone else, do you? If the answer is “no” let me suggest an alternative route, the Sigma FP and FP L.

Many people are scrambling to get their hands on the Fujifilm x100VI, but before you go out and spend all your hard earned cash, let me propose 5 alternative cameras that you should consider. While this isn’t an exhaustive list, the Sony rx1r mark ii, Sigma FP, Lumix gx9, Fujifilm x100, and Ricoh GR III are all worthy competitors to the Fujifilm. Let’s discuss their strengths compared to the Fujifilm offering.

Fujifilm just released the newest version of their legendary x100 line, the x100VI. According to preliminary sales data, they’ve been flying off the shelves. When you look at the specs sheet, its not hard to see why. Fujifilm managed to take the beloved x100V and make it even better. If you want a review of the x100VI, you’ll find 1,000 of them on other websites. In this post, I want to tell you why I, as a photographer, still prefer the Ricoh GR III to the x100VI.
