The filter holder can be rotated by 360° so you can adjust the olarising filter strength and the position of the ND grad. This isn’t perfectly ideal, but I suppose if I like the touch screen in some instances and not others, I’ll just have to put up with the shortcomings.

Some of my friends have dubbed me a philistine for 'wasting' half (more likely (three quarters) of the features available on this camera. You want a very small amount, otherwise you may not be able to remove the button later should you want to.

The cable release screws into the X100V shutter button and offers a plunger button and a Bulb lock for shooting long exposures. I had the original and the image quality was great and since it seems all the stuff that needed fixing has been. Finally, as I also said at the beginning, please do feel free to comment below with anything you have set up differently!That said, I must admit, I do have some interest in experimenting with the JPEG modes, or at very least the camera’s internal JPEG conversion engine.
