The general take
Ben Gilbert has become a genuine convert to the Fujifilm X100 VI, carrying it regularly and loving it for capturing family moments with his young kid in a way that feels better than just relying on his smartphone. He was apparently skeptical enough about it before that he didn't single it out as worth discussing, but actual usage changed his mind completely.

…ben's favorite camera with great film simulations and excellent 35mm equivalent
“Two is the Sony RX100 VII, or 7. So I recently bought a different camera, the Fuji X100 VI, or the 6. Yeah. And it's great. It's like the internet's favorite camera. It has these amazing film simulation color profiles. It's like a camera, though. I carry it around my neck because it's like, it's a camera that you hold and use, and it's very fun shooting 35 millimeter equivalent. It feels like I'm taking pictures the way that pictures were meant to be taken.”
