Three, but headed for just one?

Someone wise once said "everything shrinks with age" and at mid-70s with health issues I'm finding that to be true. and especially in re the mind.  So with that looming ahead, I've been casting around for cameras that are easy to use and still render good IQ.  And really, I've been pleasantly surprised about what I'm finding:  1.  The Panasonic FZ1000 is amazingly versatile, easy to use, and does yield good IQ, and 2.  The Panasonic LX100, once set up, is also very good-- and I've found that the 2X iZoom is very good too so I've got a 24-150mm f2.8 (equivalent) for use on the grand kids.

My main rig has been the Oly EM1 mkII w/ 12-100 f4 since they came out.  It is of course easy to use (once set up) but bigger, heavier, and I've got lots of tempting and juicy lenses for it.  Still, w/ the 12-100 (which I love) I may eventually have to give it up.  In the last 2-3 weeks I've shot extensively with all these cameras and enjoyed them all-- and that includes sorting the results.  This is a good time to be in digital photography.
