I own a Fuji X system, but I notice that I prefer to take my Fuji x100 or Nikon 1 system for street / general photography.

So the thought came that an Olympus E M10 with a pancake and sometimes a portrait lens might be a flexible alternative for the x100 that is smaller than the Fuji X system.

Fuji X-A5 is as smaller than most M43. Next question?

Well Fuji is not smaller than all M4/3, but it is as small as a GX8 or E-PL9. The good parts of it is the bigger sensor, the articulating screen which not all have and the mic in which very few camera have in this category. The bad part is that only XF 18mm f/2 seems to be a worthy small lens. The smallest zoom lens is the XC 15-45mm, but it makes the camera difficult to fit in a pocket.
