The Lumix LX100 is a compact camera that offers more than most. The design is stunning, it doesn't make too many compromises, its versatile, and takes great looking photos. Retailing for around AUD$1,100, the LX100 isn't quite what I'd call an entry leve...

Great bang for buck, despite the high price, Excellent design, Great battery life
Complex controls, No tilting LCD, Flash isn't pop-up, but rather it detatches

Panasonic's DMC-LX100 is not a perfect camera; there's no built-in flash, the monitor isn't touch-sensitive and doesn't tilt, it lacks a built-in ND filter and you can't adjust exposures via Wi-Fi. The lens displays edge and corner softness at wide apertu...

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....

I've been debating the issue of sensor size in a compact camera with Michiharu Uematsu for some considerable time now and I'm delighted that Panasonic has put a Four Thirds sensor in the LX100. It's clear that the company has invested a lot of effort in ...

Yes. I would recommend the LX100 to damn-near everyone. The only thing its not great for is telephoto shooting, which requires an interchangeable system or a much larger superzoom. $900 is a tough proposition for many of us, and certainly you dont need...

Yet another great Panasonic camera, the LX100 deserves a spot amongst the most capable compacts on the market. While we still feel the Sony RX100 III is a better all-round performer, the LX100's 4K capabilities give it a crucial edge over its rivals – not...
