Hi John,

I watched this this morning(down under time),he is always entertaining and comes to the same score.

If I had to sell my camera gear and could only retain one system would be the good old dead Q.Does very well for what it costs and definitely fun to use.

after all the years i love my Q-S1 with all those tiny lenses and the K-Adapter. It is always fun to shoot with and produces astonishing quality pictures for such a tiny Sensor. Hope Ricoh will update it someday ...

I have Q-7 (and love it). I do not have any other which he shows. But I have to tell that on sunny day Q-7 is almost impossible to use: because image on the screen is hardly visible. How such a camera can be crowned as ultimate all-around? That make me ask what the practical value in this clip?

Very enjoyable video comparison. Still love my Q & Q7.

Thanks for sharing,

My understanding of the video was that the score was a four-way tie, and thus all four won.

There was clearly a lot of love for the Q in that video. The Fujis seems to get less "valuable" points

I know Mattias is looking forward to the K-3 III, if he can stomach the price. There's hope for a review in due time I think.

It's his channel and his criteria

... and maybe in cloudy Sweden where he lives screen glare is not quite the issue it is in California

From time to time there is sunny day even in Sweden. At least that what I know about S. Petersburg, which is the same latitude as Stockholm. And he did selection of ultimate all-around.

He crowned them all. Great selection for his use case (personal and paid).

Personally, I really like the X100 series but it is too expensive (for me). Now it is good that they released the X-E4, I may have to try the actual unit first. (Handling/ergonomics).

Unless you live in Gothenburg there's plenty of sun in Sweden. Not California levels I have to admit
