my LX3.. the first impressions

Posted by tekgik under kaBlog, Mono, News, product

Panasonic Lumix LX3

its here.. bought from hong kong (Thanks Aids!) I also ordered Sandisk Extreme 3 8g SDHC.

First impressions:

• classically designed camera. Rangefinder look. I love it!
• superb leica summicron lens, contrasty, fast and sharp
• too many features to play with
• 16:9 ratio is really awesome
• impressive ISO performance up to 400. ISO 800 decent
• hi-res LCD
• phenomenal HD video
• lotsa customizable features
• can be used for strobist. 580ex I and flashwaves RF trigger works!
• decent 1/2000s flash sync speed (with off shoe flash)
• 24mm wide angle lens!
• Quick controls (joystick & 4 way nav buttons)
• in-camera post production
• RAW file capaility

The LX3 is a serious point & shoot camera. It wont replace my DSLR’s but it will definitely be with me all the time.

Out of the blue.. my g9 – g10 lust was over powered by this little compact camera. The Panasonic Lumix LX3. It boasts extra features that the G series should have.
