The relatively short zoom reach can feel limiting if you're used to smaller-sensor point-and-shoots with long optical zoom
It lacks a tilting LCD screen
Making it harder to get shots from above and below eye-level
Controls may seem intimidating to b
It's got a fixed LCD and the lens really needs a hood to minimize flare
Abstract: Like most Panasonic cameras, the DMC-LX100 (one of the year's most critically acclaimed) is both modest-looking and carries a cracking Leica lens – a bright f1.7 that makes low-light photography and the kind of shots that need a blurry background a cinch...

– Yes. I would recommend the LX100 to damn-near everyone. The only thing it's not great for is telephoto shooting, which requires an interchangeable system or a much larger superzoom. £700 is a tough proposition for many of us, and certainly you don't nee...

It's got a fixed LCD and the lens really needs a hood to minimize flare
With really good photo and video quality, a great set of features and generally class-leading performance, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 is probably one of our favorite compact cameras ever. It's not for the inexperienced, though....
4/3" sensor and 2475mm f/1.72.8 lens, Aperture ring, Shutter speed dial, 4K video at 100 Mbps, Builtin EVF, Fast AF, Flash sync at all shutter speeds, Quality build, WiFi and NFC, Power adapter included
No touchscreen, LCD doesn't pivot or tilt, Connectivity (no USB 3.0, no headphone or mic jacks), "Only" 1/4000, 4K videos slightly cropped (26mm), Flash not builtin, No USB charging, A tad too big to fit in your pocket
The Lumix LX100 hits where it counts. It boasts picture quality, speed, a generally bright lens, 4K video, an aperture ring, a shutter speed dial and an EVF, all in a relatively small body. However, between classic sobriety and geeky frills, don't ask us ...
Excellent image quality from Four Thirds sensor, Intuitive dial-based controls, Fast lens is useful for low light shooting, Built-in electronic viewfinder
Fixed LCD screen that isn't touch-sensitive, EVF color rendition can be misleading, Limited telephoto range
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 is one of the most exciting new cameras to appear this year, and Ive found that in real-world use it more than lives up to its considerable promise. Indeed, it has perpetually surprised me by just how well it works in almost...

We probably sound hyper-critical of the Panasonic Lumix LX100, for the simple fact that we are. There's so much potential here, but it's slightly skewed by the absence of a tilt-angle screen prevalent in so many competitors and image quality that is...
The LX100 has flaws and costs more than the competition, but it's worth every penny. Fixed-lens cameras have been on a tear for the last two or three years. This trend arguably began with Fujifilm's original X100 and carried over into the truly compac...
