The Fujifilm X100VI is the embodiment of two trends in one camera, mixing both the compact camera craze and the craving for retro style into one product. Thanks to both trends and the camera's TikTok fame, the X100VI is the trendiest camera of the year, if not the decade. But, exactly one year from the launch date, the Fujifilm X100VI is still near impossible to find in stock, unless you’re willing to pay far more than the list price.
I expected some of the hype surrounding the Fujifilm X100VI – after all, it’s the earlier X100V that first went viral and that older model is just as hard to find. But what I didn’t quite expect is for multiple Fujifilm cameras to gain that worrisome red “on backorder” label from major retailers. Now the X100VI, announced on February 20 2024, isn’t the only Fujifilm camera that’s hard to find.
