Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this. I did a bit more research and dpreview comparisons and went to the camera shop this morning. I walked out with a Panasonic but as the salesman said “quite a different kettle of fish”. Like comparing apples with oranges?

I have decided to purchase the LX100 ll and I think I will be happy with it. Granted it doesn’t have nearly the the zoom capacity as the ZS100/200 models but it does have a 4/3 sensor so I’m anticipating better performance in suboptimal lighting conditions. It’s a little bit heavier and slightly larger but fits easily in my bag and felt good in my hands. It feels very reminiscent of my old 2007 Canon G9 (12MP) which I used for years.

Thanks again for your assistance with this.

I think your new camera will serve you well. Have a great trip.

Wow! This is stunning! Our trip in the fall is taking us to Italy as well. Though I’d be presumptuous to think that I will get these results- it’s great to see what the camera’s potential is.
