Looking for a new compact camera with 50mm lens

don't get hung up on numbers, whatever camera you get the most keeper shots, try many diff ones to get there.

a regret though is selling my Oly EM1..2 and Leica 50-200 which was real easy to shoot silent, and real good b&w images. just got hooked on m/f Hasselblad and couldn't go back. nothing at all wrong with m 4/3 w/ good glass
 
Hello to the forum, i used the olympus omd em10 iii of a friend for a weekend and found the idea and results of such a camera with the 50mm equivalent lens nice. I would like to make a little change from my canon p, at least for some time. I would like a small digital camera with an also small 50mm equivalent lens, i dont need an evf, very good autofocus would be welcome and weather proof nice but i can live without weather proof if the camera ticks the other boxes i want. I shout only street photography and i dont want to manual or zone focus with this particular set up. What would you suggest ?
Here is no digital compacts with 50mm lens.
Closest and best you could ever get for the street is Ricoh GRDx with 40mm lens.
As compact and as street as it could be.

M43 is dying format. No new cameras without EVF. Just some overpriced for nothing with EVF.
You have to look for used ones.


Here is the sizing guide.

Panasonic makes S9 compact FF camera without EVF. Sigma has 45 2.8 lens, not too big.
 
Panasonic s9 looks like a great camera for what i am looking for but the lenses seem to be huge, like where is the 50mm 1.8 like the canon r one ?

I see nothing wrong with 45 2.8 for street photography. No difference from 50mm.
Canon 50 1.8 RF STM and some other dirt cheap made RF STM lenses have nasty AF glitch on at least RP. Anything not RP/R8 is huge in.R serieus.
But RP/R8 are dirt cheap, outdated crap.
EF-R adapter makes any EF lens huge.
Even 40 2.8 EF.
 
The Nikon 1 V1 with 1-Nikkor 17.5mm (50mm equivalent) has a 1” 10Mp sensor with film-like output. AF is fast and accurate. Colour is great, like Kodachrome 25. It has an EVF but you can use the screen, although it doesn’t articulate. It’s a very compact little brick of a camera.
