The GFX100RF’s large sensor delivers a profound advantage in image quality, yielding superior resolution and depth that excels for large-format printing and rigorous analysis. More critically for artistic control, the medium format sensor inherently creates a narrower depth of field. 

This means that even with a comparatively smaller aperture, like f/4, the GFX achieves a more dramatic subject separation and beautiful bokeh than the X100VI. 

For practical use, the GFX’s 102 megapixels also enable extreme cropability, allowing a photographer to digitally zoom to an 85mm equivalent while retaining 17 megapixels—an effective technique for isolating subjects without sacrificing file quality.

While the GFX is the technical champion, the X100VI offers a significantly faster, more compact, and affordable shooting experience. 

Its lighter build, enhanced autofocus capabilities, and superior video features (up to 6K 30) position it as the ideal choice for street photography, travel, and spontaneous daily use. 

Both cameras share a beautifully tactile design with clicky dials for precise control over aperture and shutter speed, emphasizing the hands-on enjoyment of photography. 

Feature	Fujifilm GFX100RF	Fujifilm X100VI	Key Differentiating Factor
Resolution / Sensor	102 MP, Medium Format	40 MP, APS-C	GFX: Superior detail, contrast, and depth.
Bokeh / Depth of Field	Naturally narrower depth of field.	Wider depth of field.	GFX achieves more dramatic subject isolation.
Cropability	Excellent; retains high resolution after cropping.	Adequate; resolution drops quickly.	GFX offers more flexible post-production framing.
Portability / Price	Heavier (~1.5 lbs), ~$5,600 USD.	Lighter, more compact, ~$2,000 USD.	X100VI is significantly more accessible and portable.

The final decision rests on the photographer’s core need: is it the ultimate technical quality and maximum background blur provided by the GFX, or the immediate, portable creative joy offered by the X100VI?
