The Baby Leica You've Never Heard of

This is the Lumix Lx100ii, a four-year-old camera that you can buy used for under $1,000. I got mine from MPB.com, but you can also find them on Ebay. Not to be confused with the Fujifilm X100V, it's a camera with a similar name and a similar purpose. This camera has less resolution but captures beautifully dynamic raw images and has a bunch of features to be excited about, including a very sharp Leica zoom lens, great ergonomics, and a portability that's hard to beat. For those reasons, you can consider this camera like a baby Leica; yet it's something you can afford to use on a daily basis and take everywhere you go. For street photographers, this is an awesome, fun, and impressive camera. If you can get around the old, low-quality EVF, and some frustrations around Panasonic's touch screen, there's a lot to love! Especially as Fujifilm cameras are becoming incredibly hard to get your hands on, alternatives like this are surely going to make a resurgence.
