100 or 109?

Is there a chance that anyone of you really knows if there is an image quality difference between the Panasonic LX 100 & the Leica D lux Type 109 and the Sony a6000? I make 8x10's, 11x14's & 16x20's. Looking for a walk around camera that rival the quality of my Nikon APS-C DSLR's like many of us with age related aches & pains. As always, many thanks for your feedback. Other suggestions welcome too.

I don't have knowledge of the other two, but I thoroughly enjoy owning an LX 100 and can answer questions about it.

I see that the Leica 109 offers an accessory automatic lens cap ($90.)that Panasonic LX-30 does not. Anyone know if the Lumix will fit the Leica? Thanks.

Panasonic has one for the LX100. It is listed in the back of the instruction manual as the DMW-LFAC1. B&H sells it for $40. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1084637-REG/panasonic_dmw_lfac1k_lens_cap_for_lumix.html

Not everyone likes it because it can be trouble if you use filters.

Have you tried looking for online comparisons? It sure beats buying both cameras and comparing them.

Several Leica cameras are just Panasonic cameras that have been rebranded.

Check the specs.

Thanks. I'm leaning toward the Sony a6000. Most reviews rate the image quality higher than the others.
