SUMMARY

Photographer James Popsys, after initially dismissing the Fujifilm X100VI, found it genuinely enjoyable on a second try. He notes that modern cameras like the X100VI, with its 40MP APS-C sensor, produce excellent image quality in daylight, suggesting the camera is rarely the limiting factor. Popsys argues that Fujifilm cameras are priced too low, creating a perceived gap in build quality compared to their output, which can lead some photographers to overlook them. He compares it favorably in terms of enjoyment against pricier models like the Sony a1 II and Leica Q3.
