I settled on the Canon M100, in the end it was the sheer simplicity of the camera that did it for me plus the fact it shares a battery type with two of my other cameras.

I understand. Anyone who uses a 'punt gun' for shooting sporting clays would not be happy with the Sony.
Congrats on the M100. Looks like a great choice. Happy shooting (with your punt guns & camera).

I've been using a Sony A-6500 with just two lenses: the 10-18 and the 18-200 zooms. Gitzo tripod with a Gitzo ballhead. I'm very, very pleased - it's a great camera.

Ended up with a Lumix DMC-ZS60 with the Leica lens rather than the Sony/Zeiss combo. The Lumix was on 'close out' at 45% off (recently replaced with the ZS70). Pretty decent 'deal' for what has been one of the most highly rated point & shoot cameras. Especially like that it has a fixed LCD touch-screen (one less thing to break) and an eye-level view finder.

LOL Glenn, while a few years back 32" barrels were considered long, now more and more 34" ones are starting to show up !

And I went from 32" back to 30" I'm so yesterday.

I sold all of my Nikon gear and recently purchased glass for the Sony A7III and I’m never looking back. The system has been such an improvement in terms of quality while gaining in size and weight.

The stabilisation is so impressive that there are many shots that I thought would be impossible to make and they came out sharp that I believe I can push it even longer (I’m talking long exposure type of scenario, hand held!).

DSLR are now dead and FF mirrorless is the future.

Even on my lowly Lumix the stabilization is quite outstanding. Took a second macro shot this afternoon thinking the first was surely blurred. Both were perfect. Need all the help I can get.

I have been using the Leica Q for the past year now and absolutely love it. Its a 24 megapixels full frame camera with a fixed 28mm f/1.7 Summilux lens. It is a stunning camera to look at and feels right in my hands. The build quality is second to none. It makes my Fuji cameras feel cheap (which is no easy to do). Also I found that other cameras have too many buttons and you have to dig into menus to switch settings which takes away from the experience whereas Leica achieves a minimalistic set up. Though I normally shoot completely manual the autofocus is spot on and the camera is extremely fast. Though a 28mm lens may not be for everyone I find this camera very hard to beat as the glass is pin sharp even when wide open.
