fixed lens cameras are a relatively niche thing nowerdays, despite the hype around thr fuji x100vi and the rico gr3.
i'd look for a micro-four-thirds camera like the om system om5/olympus e5. The micro-four-thirds sensors are very good, despite being smaller, the system offers a ton of good glass that tends to be lighter and smaller than aps-c or fullframe equivalents, so very backpackable.
I know the M4/3rds are pretty good, I'm just worried about low light performance as I do lots of sunset, blue hour, and night photography. Do you have knowledge on that? Maybe they're better now than I realize. I haven't heard of the Rico either, I'll check that out.
well, i don't own one currently, but pics i saw from the om5 looked good to me this article has some low light examples for the om5 and i cant remember it being a point of critic when i was reading up on reviews when i was looking for a camera, so i'd guess you'll be fine.
i actually bought a lumix s5ii, a full frame camera, and regret it sometimes a little bit due to the weight, bulk and price of some lenses and i'd probably buy a om1 in retrospect.
