Who has an opinion on which of these Leicas would be best for candid/street/subway photography--unobtrusive--(like my old silent M6 and a 50mm f2.0)
1. Leica C with a 28-200/f2.0 to 5.9
2. Leica D-Lux 6 with a 12-90 and f 1.4!!

Why did you rule out the Rx-100ii?

Because I had read somewhere that it's macro performance wasn't great,- but after reading review I will take a look/feel before final decision
I see you're using EM1- how like it?;- just moved from EM5 to EM1 and haven't even started with it--did the new f2.8 "pro" zoom with it. Anxious to get going this weekend

Back to the Lx-7...Here's a video I've posted several times before on some of its features:

I use the Lx-7 at work really like it the 1.4 lens pretty much sees in the dark. Not bad from a tiny sensor.

Don't rule out the Fuji X100s. I absolutely love this camera as my walk about.

I, too, like my Olympus EM 1. However, it is not pocketable, in my opinion, unless you have a big pocket and a stubby lens attached to it. With the Olympus EM 1 you also might be prone to lens fever!! So you wind up with multiple lenses to tote around which, then becomes a non pocketable situation without a photo vest, camera bad, sling bag, or back pack.

So for meandering with the least "stuff" hanging off of you and to look as inconspicuous as possible a smaller camera with built in all-in-one lens might be practical as you are thinking of doing. The video on the Leica D Lux 6/Pana LX 7 has me thinking that I should go that route myself for times when I don't want to sport all of my Olympus "stuff." I don't feel inconspicuous when I am using that camera and am still needing a camera that makes me less obvious. My old point and shoot doesn't have some of the up-to-date features so am on the hunt again, myself. I do like Panasonic/Lumix. Have two lenses from them for my EM-1.

I wish there were such videos as precise and easy to follow as that one was for the Leica D Lux 6/Pana LX 7 for each new camera marketed. It would make decision making easier.......or make decision making more difficult.....Oh, the choices!!!! :?

I purchased the Nikon P7800, a new top of their line point and shoot. It has most of the operating features of my Nikon D600. It has a larger sensor than most P&S, 12 MP, has a zoom from 28-200mm, ability to add filters, a fully tilting LCD and best of all a pretty good EVF (electronic view finder) which was a must for me. I hate trying to shoot with an LCD in brighter light. So far i really like it except if you record a raw file and a jpg together it is very slow to record.

I looked at the Sony RX100Iii as well. I opted for the EVF, fully tilting LCD and better zoom even though the Sony is 20MP.

I'm grateful for all the thoughts re.a new walkaround, unobtrusive, silent--mourning having lost my M6 in flood but have to go digital anyway--and I'm still thinking about that F1.4 on the DLux 6 and it's size in my big arthritic mitt- No one would notice, hear etc...Any further thoughts??
