For travel I got a IIIx to complement my Fujis, but added a view finder (Sigma VF11, expensive but worth it). It allows a picture preview before switching on, a good battery saver, accurate and tiny. A trip to North Vietnam proved its worth but I find myself adding a Fuji just in case.

I do both. When bright sunlight makes the rear screen’s subject hard to distinguish, and also when scouting, so either method is valid. And I find the Sigma’s accuracy very good.
As an aside, it would make the GR a much better travel camera if a slide-on accessory lens for tele shots was available. I’m sure there have been forum comments.

Can you elaborate on that? Do you mean a lens you can attach, so it becomes more a tele? This already exists. It is the teleconversion lens GT2. https://www.ricoh-imaging.eu/eu_en/tele-conversion-lens-gt-2?___from_store=de_de
