Finally a Panasonic camera that lives up to its Leica lens November 18, 2008
This is the first Panasonic camera that lives up to the Leica name on its lens. Images from the JPEG engine show both accurate colors and plenty of detail.
You can take great pictures with the camera out of the box, or you can dive deeply into the manual controls to get exactly what you want out of an image.
Buyers should be aware that you have to give up the telephoto end of the zoom range in exchange for this camera's 24mm wide end. It may seem like a difficult compromise to make until you remember that you can always zoom with your feet. Give 24mm a try.
Simply love it November 17, 2008

Panasonic DMC-LX3S 10.1MP Digital Camera with 2.5x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver)
I'm mainly a film user. For digital, I use a Nikon D200 and this Panasonic DMC-LX3. I just went on a vacation to Zion National Park last month and just brought my Leica and Panasonic with me. The bulky Nikon was left at home. The Panasonic, with its f2.0 lens, gives excellent quality pictures, usable up to ISO400. That's equivalent to an ISO800 speed for a comparable camera with f2.8 lens. The camera does occasionally show purple streaks on the LCD preview when I focus under a bright back light condition, but the streaks don't show up in the picture. Not a big deal and tolerable to me. Hope Panasonic will have a firmware fix. Otherwise, it's a gem. [...]
