Weird to say, but for lightweight, handheld landscape camera, I would choose the X100VI over the 100RF.
I would choose the XT5 over the X100vi for landscape since it has higher resolution, a larger battery, very small size, and can accommodate different lenses — so that I could choose a single small prime that best fits my likely needs, carry an extra small prime for versatility, or on occasion put any of a range of lenses on the thing.
That’s pretty much how I use it.
90% of the time is is my everyday, “always with me” camera, equipped with the 27mm f/2.8 pancake. While the X100vi is smaller, the difference isn’t that great.
But I also carry it as my second camera when shooting landscapes. sometimes in this role I just keep the 27mm on it for quick photographs when I don’t want to get out that large system (or while I’m photographing with the large system). But I can also equip it with more typical landscape lenses and put it on my second tripod and do actual landscape work with it.
YMMV.
I use my XT5 in a similarly but with an 18 on it most of the time, lately my Voigtlander 18/2.8 Color-Skopar. Nice little lens. Was interested in how the RF could play in with my kit it would be easy to pack as well even when going small with APSC kit. The price is high though for a B cam type role though but it is very appealing to me.
