Fujifilm X-S20 vs X100VI
The X-S20 and X100VI are closely matched — the right pick comes down to what you shoot.
The short version
The Fujifilm X-S20 and Fujifilm X100VI are Fujifilm APS-C bodies from different lines — the X-S and the X100. The X100VI is the newer of the two, arriving in 2024. At launch the X-S20 was $1,299 and the X100VI $1,599, making the X-S20 the more affordable of the two.
On paper the X-S20 is the stronger body of the two. It gives you 7-stop in-body stabilization, 750-shot battery life, and a lighter 491 g body.
The X100VI isn't far behind. It hits back with 40.2 MP of resolution, 11 fps continuous shooting, and a hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder.
So which one? If you want 7-stop in-body stabilization, get the X-S20. If 40.2 MP of resolution is closer to what you actually need, the X100VI is the smarter buy. And the X-S20 costs less — $1,299 at launch.
