The LX100 and X100T both appeal to me as general, daily shooters because of their build, external controls, quality lenses and larger sensors. But you have to understand that I got by for literally years with only one lens - a Rokkor-X 50mm f/2.0 - on my first film SLR, a Minolta SRT-200. Working with one focal length, as long as its a useful one, really isn't a problem for me. But, yes, the flexibility of the LX100's zoom has me interested. But its lack of an integrated flash bothers me (I promised that I wouldn't bring that up again). So the X100 is a reasonable alternative - at least to me.
The Ricoh GR is a whole 'nother smoke. This is a camera that was made for street shooting and fast, easy, one-handed operation. It may not look tiny but it actually slides into a pants pocket easier than the RX100. 28mm is an excellent focal length for street shooting because you don't have to worry about precise framing. You shoot and crop a bit later. Still, the GR's instant crop modes (35mm at 11mp and 47mm at 6mp) are suprisingly useful. Snap-focus mode also makes fast exposures easy. The GR utilizes Sony's "White Magic" technology in its rear LCD. So shooting in bright sunlight is less of an issue. So is battery burn while doing so. If you have a chance to borrow or rent a GR, I'd recommend it.
The Canon G7X looks very good to me, especially if a viewfinder isn't that important. I'm waiting to find out how good the lens is. It sounds almost too good to be true. The X30? I love Fuji and had the X10. But, alas, I think the X30 - while a good camera on its own - simply isn't up to its brand-new, large-sensored competition. Unless they drop the price by $200.
