Encounter with My Beloved Camera
My beloved camera, the FUJIFILM X100VI.
When it was first released in March this year, there was a backlog of orders in Japan, making it difficult to obtain. I almost gave up after failing three lottery draws.

Amidst this, I checked Map Camera daily, and one day found the pristine black X100VI I was looking for. Although the price far exceeded the list price, I purchased it immediately.
The World My Beloved Camera Takes Me To
As the title suggests, its portability is the most attractive feature. It's a camera that's easy to carry, allowing for quick photos during trips, outings, neighborhood walks with children, shopping, or even during breaks at work.
