I love my Nikon, but I have found that its bulk is a barrier to its use. When I&#8217;m traveling, I find that I don&#8217;t want to carry it around with me and I fall back to using my mobile. I tend to buy Samsung Ultras, which take very good snapshots, but they simply can&#8217;t compare to an actual camera. I thought the compact size of the Leica was the answer to my problem, but sadly, I never had the chance to find out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1350\" data-attachment-id=\"11505\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/2024\/01\/year-in-review-2023\/20230712_081850\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1800,1350\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"20230712_081850\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850.jpg\" data-id=\"11505\" src=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-90x68.jpg 90w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/jimmypribble.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20230712_081850-1160x870.jpg 1160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Leica D-Lux 7<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"august\" class=\"cnvs-block-section-heading cnvs-block-section-heading-1703743466007 is-style-cnvs-block-section-heading-8 haligncenter\" >\n\t<span class=\"cnvs-section-title\">\n\t\t<span>August<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>In August, I came home from work one day to find that my house had been burgled and my new beautiful Leica was gone!
