  • We liked the Canon PowerShot G7 X for its ease of use, making it a good camera for those who want to let the camera do the brunt of the work instead. Even then, it still had manual controls to cater to the more advanced shutterbug. The Panasonic LX100 tak...

  • Ça faisait longtemps qu'un appareil photo ne nous avait pas autant enthousiasmés. Peut-être le Fujifilm X100 en son temps. Il faut dire que Panasonic a mis les petits plats dans les grands pour nous concocter ce compact hors norme: capteur Micro 4/3 sans...
