The GM1 with kit 12-32mm is very pocketable in its hard case. It needs a jacket side pocket but that works for me. It is slightly larger with the 20mm f/1.7 or the 7.5mm fisheye. With those, it would go in my small padded shoulder case.

There is no EVF but that works for me and the pop up flash is really useful.

It's a proper camera and seems to AF Canon lenses using my MB4 adapter. Handy as a back up, since Canon is my second choice for the A7R, after native lenses.

There are so many small cameras, it really depends what you really want and what compromises you are willing to make.

$400 seems a lot for a used GM1 kit.  Mine cost me £250 as an open box ex demo model.

Happy hunting

Andrew
