I have one of the earlier micro 4/3 cameras the Lumix G2. I still took it on holiday a fair few times but it's not often to hand because I'd put it back in the rucksack (not wanting it hanging around my neck). I sort of missed the camera in a case on my belt but when I got a dSLR it was because compact cameras didn't give me what I needed.
Then a trip years ago was planned to Krakow and we were going with hand luggage only. So no camera. I got a new phone partly because of this and that HTC One M7 had a great camera and I got some good photos. Surprised me.... so I used that a lot even when I had the G2.
Replacement phone was the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the camera was even better..... so G2 used even less. But there are times when I have tried taking photos and a camera phone is not good enough and no zoom.
So waiting to try out in earnest my camera when away. Really small but a 1" sensor. Does have a viewfinder (electronic).
Sony has kept all of these RX100's on sale. And older RX100 M3 is about £500. It was cheaper the end of 2017 with cash back.
