Fujifilm X100V vs Fujifilm X100F: Physical Specs and Body features Comparison

Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, We are going to illustrate Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X100V has external dimensions of 128 x 75 x 53 mm (5.04 x 2.95 x 2.09″) and weighs 478 g (1.05 lb / 16.86 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm X100F has external dimensions of 127 x 75 x 52 mm (5 x 2.95 x 2.05″) and weighs 469 g (1.03 lb / 16.54 oz) (including batteries).

Below you can see the front view size comparison of Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F. Fujifilm X100V has the same height with Fujifilm X100F. On the other hand, with a width of 128mm, it is 1 wider and also with a thickness of 53mm, it is 1mm thicker than Fujifilm X100F.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Fujifilm X100F is 9g lighter than the Fujifilm X100V but we don't think this will make a significant difference.

Weather Sealing

With its weather sealed body, we believe that X100V has a big advantage over X100F which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.

LCD Screen Size and Features

Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3.00".

On the other hand, Fujifilm X100V features a Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over the head levels whereas the Fujifilm X100F has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X100V.
Fujifilm X100V vs Fujifilm X100F: Sensor Comparison

Fujifilm X100V has a 26.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features X-Processor Pro 4 processor. On the other hand, Fujifilm X100F has a 24.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS X-TRANS III sensor and features X-Processor Pro processor.

Another similarity between these two cameras is that both Fujifilm X100F and Fujifilm X100V sensors lack anti-alias (Low-Pass) filters. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moire occurring in certain scenes.

Below you can see the X100V and X100F sensor size comparison.

Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F Cameras


Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F have almost the same sensor size so none of them has any significant advantage over other in providing control over depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture.

Fujifilm X100V vs Fujifilm X100F Lens Specs Comparison

Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X100F features 35 mm F2.0 Prime lenses so they have the same focal reach and light collecting ability.

Both cameras have a wide angle coverage of 35mm and have the same max aperture of f2.00 at this focal length. Both cameras have a tele angle reach of 35mm and have the same max aperture of f2.00 at this focal length.
