I would go with the RX100 and EM1 as well. I have the RX100 III and it makes a very good backup/pocket cam compared with my EM1.

The X100 is a cool camera, but IMO a very special purpose, niche camera with a fixed 35/2 and not much smaller than the EM1 with a pancake lens on it.

The RX100 on the other hand, is a very versatile camera, that is significantly smaller than the EM1.

I would say the RX100 is sort of like a nice every day sedan, while the EM1 is like an SUV, they go well together, they have clearly different strengths and weaknesses, and will likely suit you in a lot more situations than the EM1 and X100 would.

Just curious, since I may end up in a similar boat, do you have the 12-40 pro lens? If so, does it feel redundant when you have RX100?

Not even close ...
