    In terms of design I thought the X100 looked like bullshit retro from the off, the back is a real design mess.

    I've been using my refurb Sony NEX (£190 from eBay) for street but found that the Zuiko lens I got, being an old SLR thing, is just waaay big. Too conspicuous and heavy and such.

    So just bit the bullet and bought myself a Voigtlander Color-Skopar (35mm) from CameraQuest plus an adapter from eBay and away I go! The lens is tiny and dark (the 'C' model: not the other variants, which have shiny bits), hopefully as discrete as it gets.

    No auto-focus, but the swivel screen is useful for street/candid.
