A fantastic compact camera

Oct 4, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: 28mm wide angle - RAW ability - well build
Cons: Flash could have been more powerful
Opinion:
Had the LX1 and alos the LX2 - one word is getting better and better.

Can serve it on fully auto and let begainers snap pictures or set it to full manual and you be in total control of the captured shots.

Ability to have manual over ride on white balance is great, this function use to be avail only on DSLRs.

Is compact size allows users to slip it in to their jackets instead of lugging around their precious DSLRs.

Picture qualities is sharp. Even at maximum optical zoom there is minimum barrel distortations avail to the naked eyes. A fine well build compact camera.
.
Leaving it on stands and taking night scenery with delayed shutter captures beautiful and detailed photos. A trend not found in many compacts by other makes.

What i really like it it's ability to do lots of manual overrides just like a DSLR. Is a canera that has accomplish 2 goals. Easy to use for the begainers and compact for the pros.

A great step up camera before a DSLR.
