Pound for pound best point and shoot.

Having just purchased a Fuji XT10 and a couple of lenses, it would seem I require a point and shoot. What would be anybody's recommendations concerning the X30, Xpro1 and XT series of camera?it's not always convenient or practical to carry the XT10 and I'm fed up of having to rely on my phone. Thanks.

Good suggestion. I'm just wondering whether iI would be limited by the fixed lens? Perhaps I really ought to be asking for best portable interchangeable lens camera given the fact I already own an XT10?

Yeah I got rid of the XA1. I got it into my mind I could get away with slinging and Xpro1 or something of similar size in my jacket pocket with a couple of small lenses I could quite happily reuse on the XT10. Just getting to weigh up the pros and cons.

Oh dear, I assumed it was slimmer and thus more jacket pocket friendly. I don't mind the weight. Thought it was less bulky as I had only seen it in a shop window.

Depends entirely on what you want. The bigger sensor of the LX100 puts it at the top of my list, it is basically the same camera I use use but 2/3rds of the size and lens 5x Faster.

As per my previous post I went for a used Olympus xz-2 f1.8-2.5 for £115.00 with hybrid focus/aperture ring etc. Can get it in a coat/jacket and baggy trouser pocket and is far more adaptable than my phone. Have yet to test it out prior to committing myself fully to keeping it though? If things do not work out then the LX100 will be back on my list followed by the Sony mark 2.
