  • Great photo quality, Compact form factor and gorgeous design, Physical manual controls,
  • Can feel a tiny bit cramped, No microphone input, Wi-Fi connectivity is slow,
  • 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...

  • 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....

  • Large sensor in a compact body, Small highquality lens, Traditional controls, Electronic viewfinder
  • Screen not touchsensitive, 16Mp sensor produces 12Mp images, No flash builtin
  • 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...
