Rather than repair the camera that I have, I'm looking at buying a new camera.
Looking through the different models being sold, I think I might get the Panasonic DMC-ZS100. It's a compact camera (snug fit in a pocket), has a 1" sensor, 10X zoom, and a view finder.
The Panasonic DMC-ZS200 is the current model and it has a 15X zoom but it's $200.00 more and most reviews claim that the photo quality is worse than the ZS100.

I could not hold out on the Apple Watch, so scratch that from my list. Also, I decided to hold on to my 7 plus one more year, so I can remove the Max....but add the iPad 12.9 and the new Mac Mini.
for my wallet.
iPhone XS, SS Watch Series 4, Air Pods (want to wait until gen 2), Macbook (Pro or Air), 11 inch Pro.
Just delaying, probably.
But the new golden MBA wants to get into my hands.
Probably will, soon enough, unless I hear some real bad reviews.

Can't go wrong with a Leica lens! I love my Sony RX100 M6, which has a Zeiss lens, and the quality is excellent. Like the Lumix, it has a 1 inch sensor. For me one huge appeal of the RX100 M6 is that it also has a viewfinder, which I find invaluable. With this latest addition to the RX100 line, Sony has increased the zoom to 200mm (equivalent), which is great for a travel camera. If you haven't looked at the RX100 M6, check it out.
Thanks for the advice.
Unfortunately, the Sony RX100 M6 cost a lot more then a Panasonic ZS100.
They are both somewhat comparable (1" sensor, compact, electronic viewfinder, 8.3x optical zoom RX100 vs 10x optical zoom ZS100) though I would have bought the RX100 M6 if the cost were closer (my last camera was a Sony). I ended up getting the Panasonic ZS100 and I like it so far.
I resisted buying the 12.9" IPP, thinking I'd go for the 11".
Alas, yesterday I ordered the 12.9", so I failed.
Unless I return it and get the 11".

I’m not sure I’m trying to avoid buying them but I’m trying to decide if I really need a new winter office casual shoe.
Those look pretty nice actually. I probably should do something similar.
Like an idiot I’ve ruined leather soles in the winter. I have a pair of shoes with Vibram soles and thinking to buy another.

Trying to keep from purchasing "everything or anything" -- except the generator I want to finish saving up for and hook up to my mains for auto-start during power outages. Apple keeps diverting my plans with their offerings. Lately resisting the XR iPhone which I find appealing despite my preference for smaller form factor of the SE. The red one, mmmm.
Do it
Today there was a beautiful, sleek black Tesla parked in front of my condo building..... Someone apparently visiting one of my neighbors. Gorgeous car!!
We are on our 2nd. I can't see myself driving another car again after being so spoiled with the total package.
An S and a 3.
Looking forward to seeing what the Model Y offers.

Is there an aftermarket for these? Have a humongously sized Slave 1 and X-Wing sitting around.
