Itch for new compact
#16
You might consider a Pentax Q with an adapter and one of the several small 70~75mm options that fit on it, such as:

- Pentax DA 70mm f/2.4

- Pentax 110 70mm f/2.8

- Voigtlander 75mm Leica-M f/1.8

- something C-mount

 

These give 392 or 420mm equivalent focal length.  The body has in-body stabilization, full manual and real controls and DNG raw output.  It has the same sensor as the compact Sonys but Pentax tweaks the output to have less smeared noise reduction than Sony.  Of course, you'd have to add second lens to get the wide end, the only suitable candidate is the 5-15mm (27.5-83mm equiv.).

 

I just love this image from Imaging Resource of the Q on a key chain:
