... I totally agree that it's expensive and for just a bit more, it's almost the same price as a Lumix TZ95.

At major online resellers it is US$279.00; when price is around US$189.00 I may be more interested to get one to complement smartphone.

... What I like about it though it's it's small. Doesn't seem like it would bother people around me. There have been times I am shy to take my camera out and take the shot because I am shy of the people around me.

So far the only thing I feel comfortable shooting in more crowded places are with a smartphone. ...

? 😗

PowerShot ZOOM Monocular Size:
4.06 x 2.00 x 1.3 in.
5.12 oz.

Panasonic ZS50 Size:
4.4 x 2.50 x 1.4 in.
8.6 oz. includes battery

Agree about being discreet while shooting in 'crowded places', hence why I'l get a pocketable compact that has a built-in EVF, (e.g., LF1, ZS50, ZS100, etc.)

... Anyways thank you for your opinion, I am always looking for such opinions and weighing the pros and cons before purchasing.

You're welcome. Since the desire for being discreet, assume you'll get the 'back' color version?
