Spot on with this list! I love using the bpm 1/4 for vacation trips- the glow and softness it renders just makes the photos seem so dreamy when looking back on past trrips. I gotta try that flash out ASAP!
Yeah it definitely gives that nostalgic feeling! Thanks for watching 😁 and enjoy the flash when you get hold of one!
Your channel has been amazing I left the Fuji system a little while back but pre-ordered the new X100VI can't thank you enough for this video and your channel I've used all available affiliate links and I am happy knowing you'll get some sort of kickback
Very kind of you, thanks very much! 🖤 enjoy your x100vi when it arrives!
100% agree with everything you've mentioned and have a majority of what you got. Truly makes the X100V feel so much better to use! Great video as per usual!
Only other recommendation I'd add would be an SD Card Reader to Lighting or USB-C (depending on if you are team Apple or Android). The Fuji Photo transfer app is to be frank, dreadful and unreliable to use. Using something like an Apple SD Reader to lighting makes it real quick to dump photos onto your phone and quickly review and edit for any socials.
thanks for watching!
yes usb reader is a good shout for sure! although fuji have just released a new app for x100v which is much much better (apparently). you need to update to firmware 3.0.0 to use it though on the camera, and ive heard some dodgy reports about it being unstable so ive not actually updated mine & tested the app out yet
Another banger Eddy, thanks for all the hot tips!🔥
❤ thanks for watching man. Haven't even posted this one on socials yet! Appreciate you 🙏
i just got a fuji x100v a few months ago from someone selling theirs in TO and ive been excited to use it but also had decision paralysis on waht accessories i need ot buy. thanks for this vid! you offered some cool suggestions that others haven't! esp. the flash!! i really want that removable flash!
You’re welcome! The flash is super cool, there’s a link for it in the vid description 😊 I’ll hopefully be testing and reviewing some other accessories soon!
Thanks mate! you show me the flash i was always looking for! Keep going!
Thanks so much! Happy to help 😌
Dude this is awesome! Like others in this comment section I just preordered the x100vi. watched a few other videos to get an idea of accessory cost, and they’re all insanely expensive. I really appreciate that you gave budget conscious items!
No problem! Glad you found this useful. Thanks for watching!
been using your point & shoot flash settings and theyve been so much fun for parties with motion blur
so happy to hear that!
How did you do the motion blur
@@Liljoozy with the guy on the scooter? Put the shutter to 1/10 and pan across while shooting, keeping your focus box on the scooter so it stays sharp and everything else is motion blurred. A little bit of trial and error but fun to mess around with!
Hey! Amazing video thx for it! Im new x100v user. Do you know by any chance if the hood can be used also with the bm filter from k&f? Tiffen has no availability of 49mm ones. Thanks!!
Great Video, I have the same squirehood with the lens adaptor and the light pix and they both are amazing. Try using the wrist strap for fuji and keep in a fanny bag across your shoulder, this is my setup while traveling
Would love to try a wrist strap out at some point! Is there one you’d reccommend?
I honestly think you're the best X100V UA-camr out there. No nonsense approach and stunningly good photos to back it all up. Can't wait for more content.
Oh and you should add affiliate links to the products. Might as well make a few quid from it
Wow, thank you so much that’s a huge compliment! Really appreciate that. More content coming very soon! And also looking into some ways to make some cash to fund some better vids, thanks for the suggestion I’ll look into that!
@@EddyMaynard gotta get that square space sponsorship going 😂
Honestly dude, your photos are sick. Love your stuff
I've also used the pro mist filters for years and just recently switched to Black Satin 1/2 and Glimmerglass 1. Since, I've never looked back, check them out if you have a chance! Personally, I feel they give me the halation and softness I'm looking for without too much contrast loss which I wasn't a fan of the pro mist, especially when backlit.
I use glimmerglass 1 on my sigma 24-70 for filming weddings and I love the effect! nice and subtle. ive not checked out black satin yet though, will have a look into that, thanks so much!
i've been considering switching from 1/4 to 1/8 strength for my bpm filter... your images may have just convinced me to haha! also wow that's a neat lil flash!
Haha I also may consider doing the same!
I would recommend it! you still get the lovely glow, its just not as intense for backlit / night stuff
Thanks for watching the vid!
I can't tell you how many photography channels I've seen with hundreds of thousands of views and subs that just completely bore me because they don't show any pictures!!! You have a nice little growing channel here and there's honestly so much more weight to your opinions and the information you give out in these videos because you show your life through the pictures. Also I have mad gas for an X100V now purely because of your Dubai video and seeing what can be done with it, damn you!!!
Ahh mate this means so much thank you! Spend a lot of time making and editing these vids while also working freelance full time, and comments like this make it all worth it 😌
Super well done video! I do have a third party battery for my x100v and definitely does not last as long as the og battery. Even though it says 1500mAh it still dies quicker.
Thanks very much! Yeah they’re not ideal, but much cheaper! Depends what people need I guess, reliability or convenience!
Thanks for watching ✌🏻
Great video! With that square hood filter, do you still need the adapter from the beginning of your video as well thanks
Thank you! The square hood has a filter adapter built in, it comes in two parts, an adapter and a hood. You screw the filter into the adapter, and then the hood goes over both of them :)
The other adapter ive included in the video is more for when you're using flash, since the squarehood blocks the flash a little bit.
You could get the squarehood and then just unscrew the 'hood' bit when you want to use flash though, If you like. Its just a bit awkward to get straight again, which is why I just have both.
Links for both are in the description :)
Speaking flash,..im looking trigger for support LS...on market alot if trigger for hss system not for LS system
Hellos Sir, may i just check does the Lightpix labs Flash Q 20 II works on x100f please ? I would like to shoot flash with it. Hope to hear from you ! What a lovely tutorial you'd produce ! ❤😊
hello! yes it does :)
Hi Eddy. I see the Haoge square hood comes with a 49mm adapter ring. Do I still need to buy the filter adapter if I get this?
Hello! Technically no, you can take the front (square hood) bit off and just use the other part as an adapter ring. It has a rubber O ring on though (helps with getting the square hood to line up square with the camera), id worry that this would pop off and get lost, so I just spent the £6 on the extra standalone adapter ring. But you could definitely just use the square hood one, to answer your question :)
Thank you for the video, very instructive !!! only thing I would not buy is a non-TTL flash, when I am taking pictures of family gatherings, there is no time for trial and error. Thanks for the video. !!!
No problem! There are better (TTL) flashes but none as cheap as this with the wireless capabilities, so that’s why this gets my vote! But I agree, in a professional setting I do think it would hold you back / increase stress on the shoot
I bought the lense hood, but any idea on how to remove initial ring without damaging camera ?
hey! it should just twist off pretty easily!
Subs, youre also from UAE nice. Just bought my X100V
I’m from the UK! I just have a friend that lives in UAE that I visit every year and it’s too beautiful not to take lots of photos 😊
Dam those flash shots at 2:30 are fire
Thank you 🙏🙏
Can you do a Settings tutorial on this camera? To help us set it up the way you would to make street photography easier. I’m sure there’s more people such as myself that would really benefit from seeing a tutorial! Thanks
yes I will do at some point soon, thanks!
@@EddyMaynard thank you so much! I picked up a Fujifilm x100v and bought all of the accessories you’ve recommended! I’m just having trouble with having a good settings set for everyday carry. Thank you again!
Interesting what you said about 3rd party batteries. I find that my XT3 objects to 3rd party batteries and only accepts the genuine Fuji ones.
Hey man! A quick question i have regarding the lightpix flash, have you tried it with the adapted ultra wide lens? Cause i have another type of flash, which is kinda slim and it makes a shadow if i screw on the wide lens cause its too long that way. Do you know if the lightpix flash solves this problem cause it is a higher flash? Thanks!
Hello, yes i have, it doesnt make a shadow as its sits quite high!
Thanks! You’ve helped a lot! Also the 0,25x wide angle you’ve found is amazing in concert environement, just tested it last day and my only problem was the flash.
can you break down your settings? [not recipes], i've been using an old setup from faizal but feel like its holding me back (btw your shots are beautiful)
Yes I’m 100% going to do this in a video soon! Just finding the time to film is hard at the moment, but it’s coming! Also thanks for the kind words 🙏🏻
🎉
Hey bro! I searched but couldn’t find any video about X100V video settings tutorial or how to take video, accessories for taking video with X100V! Would you make that video please?
Hey! If I get chance in the next few weeks ill make this! Just very busy at the moment
@@EddyMaynard it would be great! Your video gonna be the first Fuji x100v video tutorial btw! Good luck bro!
Hey curious question. When you’re not using ur camera and storing it. Do u leave the battery in or out the camera
Hello! In always :)
got it! @@EddyMaynard
Killer images, man.
thanks so much mate!
How would you compare the bpm 1/8 to the glimmerglass 1?
Glimmerglass has more contrast and only really blooms around the lights, whereas BPM blooms around the lights but also reduces contrast of the overall frame. The difference is subtle but personally after using both extensively I prefer the pro mist 1/8. It’s personal taste though!
@@EddyMaynard which one is the most subtle? I thought the BPM always seemed to have make my image slightly warmer, compared to the neutral tone of the Glimmerglass. Have you experienced it like that?
@@ksoohw Glimmerglass 1 is more subtle than the pro mist 1/8 in my opinion. Not experienced any colour shifts at all no!
I'll play devils advocate on mine name brand batteries! I never have issues with them
I was 100% with you until last year when a couple of my 3rd party Sony ones died on me! Ive also read some horror stories about them swelling up and getting stuck in the camera too but I've not experienced that. But ill admit, it is kinda hard to justify the Original ones though when they're 3 or 4 times more!
i literally went through the same thing with the filter adapter...camera should come with the damn adapter tbh...unreal they dont tell you about that from the beginning 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
Yeah it’s pretty bold of them to not include it on a £1400 camera 😅
I went and got a chunky rope strap after watching this video, true influencer
Hahaha, hope you like it! I should be getting paid by brands for doing this 😅
brb gonna sell my xt30 and upgrade (?) to an x100v
Most third party batteries are utter garbage, I have a duracell one which I have found to be almost identical to the fujifilm one when I have used it with the X-P2
It is very hit and miss it would seem.. I love the x100 so much that I thought id play it safe and spend the cash, but ill admit when I need 5 or 6 for Sony cameras to shoot weddings, I do tend to go third party and hope for the best
@@EddyMaynard I have a couple of Wasabi batteries for my X100T and I'd say their actually better than the FUJiFILM originals (I also have an Ansmann substitute that came with the camera, but isn't as good as the original).
It can sometimes be hard to get the Wasabi batteries in the UK (and they occasionally appear with different brand names, but it's hard to be sure), but if you ick your moment they can sometimes be shipped from the USA by Amazon for a reasonable price.
he left everyone for dead in the comments 💀
Hey! Working full time and currently filming back to back festivals so haven’t had a whole lot of time to answer comments on UA-cam, but I will get round to it as soon as I can 😌
can you break down your settings? [not recipes], i've been using an old setup from faizal but feel like its holding me back (btw your shots are beautiful)
Sure! do you mean my photo settings (aperture iso shutter) or do you mean how I have my custom buttons set up and stuff?
also, thank you!
Both ! Full setup
