The ultimate serious photographer's point & shoot : Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 10.1 MP Digital Camera with 3.8x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD - White
I'm generally an Slr shooter (Nikon D70, D200, D300), and I've been looking for a long time for an approved compact camera to have with me everywhere -- while walking, biking, on company trips, or even side trips on vacation when I don't want to lug nearby my Slr. With the emerging choices in micro 4/3 and the newest crop of "enthusiast" compact cameras, I figured it was time to make a decision. I have no regrets about choosing the Lx5.
The two things that unmistakably stand out on the Lx5 are the lens and the uncut handling speed.
The lens is the real deal at 24-90 35mm equivalent and f/2-f/3.3. You won't find a better lens on a compact camera. I'm generally shooting landscapes and static subjects, so the range is perfect. The visual stabilization works very well, and the fast aperture of the lens helps tremendously in low-light situations.
The uncut handling speed stands out particularly against some of its compact camera competition. I was a miniature worried at first when I was doing tests and shooting Raw to internal memory, which is quite slow, but once I added a class 10 Sdhc card, that concern vanished. all responds quickly -- switches and dials, the menu, and (of course) unmistakably taking pictures. The Q Menu is a very fast and easy way to change settings. I always shoot Raw because I think the distinction is worth it, and this camera can handle it.
Although I got the elective viewfinder, it's mediocre and the ergonomics of retention a tiny camera up to my face aren't as much like using an Slr as I thought they would be, so I might get rid of the viewfinder. looking a spare battery for sale was also tough, but I did at last find one in stock on Amazon.
Here's my evaluation of the Lx5 against other cameras I was evaluating at the same time:
Canon S95 - while the S95 is definitely smaller and a bit more transportable than the Lx5, I preferred the more serious feel of the Lx5, particularly its grip. The much-discussed click wheel on the S95 I found to be overrated. Compared to an Slr rig, a small belt bag for the Lx5 is transportable enough. Viewing pictures taken by the S95, the lens didn't seem as good as that on the Lx5 - more chromatic abberation (purple fringing) and soft corners.
Nikon P7000 - as a Nikon shooter, I unmistakably wanted to like the P7000. Ergonomically its functions are similar to an Slr, and it would have been compatible with accessories such as my Nikon flashes. On the other hand, how often am I unmistakably going to want a big flash on a tiny camera? The killer for me with the P7000 was the uncut speed. It's sluggish. It responds slowly to varied controls and has a well-known question writing Raw files. These are things that would drive me nuts after an extended period of time. It also has a slower lens.
Canon G12 - I was only going to go with a larger camera if I got the P7000, so I never unmistakably carefully the G12 seriously.
Samsung Tl500 - might be the closest competitor to the Lx5 in capabilities, but it was hard to find one to try, and I unmistakably had no use for the articulating screen.
Panasonic Gf1 - would have been my first choice micro 4/3, if I went with micro 4/3. I didn't because zoom lenses are still big, even the Olympus collapsible kit zoom, and I definitely wanted a zoom lens. With a pancake prime the Gf1 is practically as small as the Lx5, and would have better image quality, but a single focal distance is not compatible (for me) with a general-purpose camera.
Olympus Pen - just like the Gf1, the lenses are too big.
Sony Nex - again, big lenses.
Nikon D3100 - I never seriously carefully any of the smaller true Slrs. Even with the smallest lenses, they're a lot bigger than the Lx5.
