While I get the comparison to an "equivalent" u43 like the GM1/kit setup, like you I really don't understand bringing the GR into the discussion other than for an apples to celery comparison. I suppose if you can crop the GR image to a 75mm equivalent FOV and have the same quality as coming out of the LX100 you can do that, but otherwise you're back at the age old prime vs. zoom conundrum.I quite agree with him, but of course, I was approaching the camera as a compact - I didn't expect it either to match the best of M4/3 (why should it, it costs less than most of the good M4/3 lenses?). I didn't expect it to match the image quality of the GR either (why should a 24-75 zoom on a smaller sensor match a fixed focal length lens on a larger one?).
I'm going to go mess with one of these. As I said before, I found the DLux4 to be a special camera in my hands for whatever reason. I've still got an RX100ii in the house which is OK but never had thrilled me. Maybe the typ109 will get a fire burning...
