Great camera when you don't want to carry a DSLR

Posted by: hotwater from on 03/14/2016I was on a business trip and saw some great photo opportunities but I only had my smart phone with me. Needless to say, the photos were not up to my usual standards. So I wanted something with a reasonable size sensor to get decent image quality. I got recommendations for several cameras and did the due diligent research, looking at fixed focal length cameras and MILC cameras for a decent price. While at my destination, I found an open box model at BestBuy.com that was at a local store. I went in and the camera basically what I was looking for, but the price was a little higher than the bestbuy.com price so the manager got me the online price. The camera has a very useful 24-70mm full frame equivalent focal distance but not an extreme zoom range that can lead to optical distortion. I also like the large aperture. Again, this is a travel camera that can fit into a travel bag or briefcase when I can't travel with my DSLR kit. Not exactly pocketable but nice for carrying. Upon getting home, the box was marked "no missing accessories" but I discovered the manual and software was missing. I called the store and the person there found a copy of both items and shipped them to me. Kudos to the customer service from this store. I wish all Best Buy stores were like this when issues are brought to their attention.

High end

Posted by: Epcat from on 02/06/2016Almost identical to Leica dlux 109. F1.7 Summilux! Photos are fabulous. Alternative to a dslr for much less bulk. Much easier to take along.

Great camera

Posted by: Mikeycam from on 01/05/2016Great camera with very good lens. Has special options and is versatile. It takes great pictures. I also have a Canon 5D mark I I and this is a great substitute when you don't want to carry so much weight.

Great Camera for the Photo-Enthusisast Traveler

Posted by: MartyH from on 11/11/2015I wasn't trying to replace my Canon 60D, but instead find a camera that I could use when I travel. I wanted a high quality reliable camera that was light and portable. It had to have convenient access to basic controls like aperture and shutter speed. It did not bother me if the camera was a point and shoot with a fixed lens. But how often can we afford to purchase a camera with a Leica lens. The 60D is still my go to camera for planned photo shoots, but now I have the Panasonic DMC LX100 as my go to travel camera. Italy here I come.......

Great small camera with lots of manual controls

Posted by: Demos from on 10/22/2015I love having separate controls for shutter speed, aperture and exposure compensation. The controls are so convenient and easy to use they encourage me to think more about the photos I take and and dial in the appropriate settings to maximize the quality of my photos. Using the controls is fun! Image quality is very important and I found it to be quite good. The resolution isn't as good as the Sony RX100 iv, but the pictures look better unless I pixel peep. I rented the LX100 and RX100 and compared them for days. I bought the LX100 because I like the pictures better. But image quality isn't as good as a good DSLR with a pro lens. I also love having lots of control over how the LX100 operates. For example, I can change the size and location of the auto-focus area and then assign adjusting it to a function button on the back. This camera fits in the pocket of baggy pants or a jacket but it seems best to store it in a small bag (like the Think Tank Mirrorless Mover 5).

High quality, compact camera!

Posted by: Amraj from on 10/03/2015The LX100 is a very, very good camera. It's perfect for any advanced photographer that wants a camera that they can carry around without bringing extra lenses. The leica lens on this is excellent, and at f/1.7 it is still very sharp. The 4k video recording is excellent, as well as the rest of the video functions- face tracking, stabilization, etc. Excellent ergonomics and size. It also looks really sleek and professional. I would only recommend this to an advanced user since it is has all the manual controls of a DSLR, and it's not that easy to just pick up and shoot. To be perfectly honest, the only other small, high-quality, pro-sumer camera that i would buy instead of this would be the Sony RX100 mk IV, but that is a few hundred dollars more, with a few different features. I only wish this camera had a slightly smaller lens when it's turned off, and the price is a little higher than it should be. Other than that its a great camera.

4K photo mode is useful

Posted by: maxotics from on 09/23/2015I'm taking a star off because the menu text is rubbing off and I can no longer get a cable into the HDMI port (don't know why). For the purpose of this review, I'm a full-frame snob. That said, this is what I like about the camera. Panasonic video is always sharp. The 4K video from this camera, down-sampled to 1080 gives the best 1080 I can imagine. However, the depth-of-field is not as shallow as you'd get from a larger sensor camera. The remote phone app is great, very handy. The 4K photo mode, in 1:1 mode, allow you to take 30 8 megapixel photos a second and then save the one you like. I use VCL. The camera is not so small that you can fit it into a pocket. However, it is small and light and won't take up much room in your bag. I love the "silent" mode. No one ever hears that I'm taking a photo.

Love the camera

Posted by: Susyq from on 08/21/2015We took it for a family trip and couldn't be happier. It is a great size and takes amazing pictures. I give it 4 stars because we had to buy a carrier and memory card. We wish that was included.
