Finally a camera you can get excited about.........2007-06-07

I am so glad that I bought this camera. In my search for a pocketable but high power camera, I went through most of top of line Cxxns before settled down with this one. I have not shot in low light or Raw yet so will have more to add later. But all of my good light shots have been amazing. The camera is fast (far cry from G7), produces gorgeous color, wonderful 16x9 mode. In small print, it perfomed just as excellent as my Nikon D200.

I don't know what else they packed into this camera and repackaged it as a "red-dot" camera, but I have been very happy with it. This camera offers a lot more than a casual user would need. This is the one that you can buy and don't feel the need for upgrade for a long time (for me, that may be less than 2 years :-))

Best Digital Camera I've Ever Seen.......2007-05-14

After months of comparing digital cameras on the market, I decided to purchase Panasonic's Lumix LX2. From the moment I turned it on I was thrilled with this camera. It does just about everything a camera can do, and in head-to-head photo taking comparisons with a Canon, a Pentax and another Panasonic Lumix camera, the LX2 took far superior pictures to all of them. I'd highly recommend this camera to anyone looking for a full-featured digital camera. Panasonic, if you're listening, put your 10x zoom lens and self-covering lens cap on the LX2 (like you have on the TZ3) and you'll have the perfect digital camera!

Overall excellent quality, but a few issues.......2007-05-13

Overall, this is an excellent camera. The quality is great for something in the "ultra-compact" category. However, the lens juts out about 1" from the camera body, which I was unaware of and makes the camera a lot less portable. I'm still not sure if the price justifies the feature set, but I'm fairly satisfied. Very happy that grid and histogram options are available. There are also a lot of preset "automatic" modes, which are very nice.

Love the LX-2.......2007-05-12

I've taken 330 shots to date. I like the 16:9 format. It allows for creative compositions. A grid can be superimposed on the LCD screen to aid composition. The colors are true; the details are clear. The macro mode allows good views of flowers and surface textures. The camera is lightweight and easy to hold. There are no negatives. The camera is a joy to use.

16:9 widescreen camera.......2007-05-08

The reason to buy this camera is the true 16:9 widescreen format. I have not seen another digital camera offering this yet, as of 05/2007. (There are some letterboxed widescreens inside of a 4:3, wasting pixels.) 10.2 megapixels within the 16:9. That's super sharp. In another 5 years, everything will be widescreen, that's TV's, computer monitors, laptops. It also has every feature you can ever need as a point and shoot.

If you don't want or need the widescreen feature, there are hundreds of other cameras you can buy.
