User Review for Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3
Great 'Classic' looking body that resembles Leica camera
Dec 24, 2008Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: hotshoe onto which one can attach an external flashlight or an optional viewfinder.
Cons: Focal length 24mm to 60mm (35mm equivalent) is too short
Opinion:
I particularly like the hotshoe that is provided which one could attach an external flashlight. The latter is good in that it is much more powerful, brighter and longer/wider coverage than the mediocre built-in flash.
With the provision of this hotshoe for external flashlight, it's a pity that the focal length is only (24mm to 60mm).
It would be great if the camera's focal length is from (28mm to 280mm) like the Panasonic Lumix model DMC-TZ2 & TZ-3 series.
The mediocre built-in flash for the above cameras is simply not strong enough to brighten objects that is further away.
