  • What's the best thumb rest or thumb grip for the X100V (and X100VI)? One thing I miss going from the Sony Full Frame Cameras to the lovely Fujifilm X100V is a good grip. I think one of these 4 Thumb Grips (Thumb Rests) may help. Let check out the JJC Deluxe Metal Thumb Up Grip, Haoge THB-XS Thumb Up Rest, YC Onion Metal Hot Shoe Thumb Up Rest, and Lensmate LM X100V Thumb Grip.

    Thank you for this! I'm also trying to pick the best option. I've got the JJC here now. There are actually 2 versions from JJC. I've ordered the second version as well to compare. What I don't like about the JJC is the fit in the hot shoe is so bad/loose and the grip is so long I essentially leverage it out of the hotshoe a bit in a very short time. As you've said access to the shutter speed wheel is important. I've had lensmates in the past and I'm not sure I love the idea of having to move it to use the rear wheel (it'd be fine for the shutter). But I've alway been impressed with their products in the past. The onion seems like it needs to be just a tad wider to give better access to the rear wheel, then the "grip" needs to go down not up so it doesn't make the camera taller? These things already make the camera thicker but I can't deal with thicker AND taller...

    I got the JJC in black, and the finishing quality looks to be much better than the silver one you had in the video. The black one has a soft paint and it matches my black X100F extremely nicely. Overall, very satisfied.

    Tried few of them and found that Lensmate and squirehood one works best. Squarehood dumb up is probably the best with one flaw, there is no silicon path in the end of the rest, thus camera will get marks when pushing hard on the thumb rest.

    The hinge can't be stated enough. I fidget, and cocking the lensmate is too fun. Sometimes i cock it like it's a film camera. It's twice as expensive, but they always make the best ones.

    JJC Grip falls off easily. I lost mine when on a vacation. I honestly don't trust any of these grips, though I have a Lensmate thumbgrip for my xpro3 and it never budges at all

  • @thomessd
    @thomessd Před 2 lety +2

    I disagree with your test, because you completely forgot to give an eye how to access the exposure compensation dial. I think which thumb grip you should choose, depends on your shooting style. For example I nearly always shoot in aperture mode with auto ISO and auto speed enabled. So I have no need to access the ISO and speed dial. But access to exposure compensation is elementary for my. So the Haoge is my way to go, YC is to bulky, JJC blocks the dial and Lensmate is way to expensive.
    Hint: If I need faster shutter speed, I choose Auto ISO slot 2 with faster predefined shutter speed.

      Thumb grip prevents you from accidentally spinning dials, but imo lens mate always wins. You can get to everything easily, and they just feel so much better
