Favorite pocketable?

[giellaleafapmu]

Maybe this was already discussed but I am curious to hear what is your favorite pocketable camera. I am not speaking large pockets, so large they can host a Leica M for example, but rather small cameras which can really be carried around all the time. As for myself I am usually for large DSLR cameras most of the time but I always liked the idea of carrying always a small camera with me (now I carry always a large bag with me but it is not the same), still I could not find so far anything I really liked. The only real pocketable I have is a Rollei 35 but I never really got to using it the way I imagined I would have used when I bought it. Of course I talking film, digital, Polaroid, pinhole, whatever...I have no prejudice!

It was a Olympus XA4 for a while. I was fine with it but eventually got in the habit of carrying a small bag with an M around with me most of the time and an iPhone the rest of the time.

+1. The XA is truly pocketable, including a pants pocket.

At the moment, Retina I with an Ektar, or maybe a Vito II with the color-skopar.
