LX1 Rocks!!!

[weekh]

Brought the LX1 for a short vacation. This cam really rocks! So small and light weight and yet the image is sooo solid!

The cam is indeed very noisy from ISO 200 onwards. But if u shoot raw and use a bit of noise reduction, it is not a major problem.

My daughter wanted to me carry her most of the time. I would have 'peng san' and dropped dead if I had used anything heavier.

How much you paid for it and what the package?
Saw the cam on a magazine few days ago and thinking of getting..

AP selling for $860 with extra 512MB SD card and a LUMIX pouch.
Used to sell for $850 with addition of 16:9 printing papers some months ago.

Weekh, from the look of the compo and shutter speed selections, I believe most of the credit should go to you i.s.o. LX1. Now comparing your shoots to my F10 (Fujifilm), then, YES, LX1 sure looks great. I don't see much of any fringing and pix is sharp, alittle hard and slight saturate but looks really great. Did you do post op?

[weekh]

The LX1 is really good. Small, light and responsive. Image striaght out from the cam is pretty good .
I've used the Ixus i5 and don't like it.
I also have the Canon Pro1 but it is a little slow compared to the Lx1. And the LX1 give better image out of the cam compared to the Pro1.
And not 4getting the anti-shake feature... really useful and allows me to shoot at low shutter speed.

I'm not a PS person. I don't do much post processing other than some slight exposure adjustment, WB (usually I bring it back to daylight) and sharpening.

Very nice series! Well taken! Photographer has an important play in it, and it helps if the camera is good....

I like the 16:9 format.

[Big Kahuna]

Color is very nice....I think should give credit to your good composition.... I am only good at talking but come to photoshooting....I can never achive that kind of impact in the subject

[Reno]

wow... very nice shots and the colour is very nice..!

[raptor84]

Very nice use of the 16:9 Function

[Hong Jia]

Nice colours... I am impressed...

But the colour r pretty saturated, did u do post processing or these r straight from camera?

[genocide]

for me the saturated looks normal,maybe just me eh :P

[n0d3]

OMG, its damn nice.

Besides the image quality, another thing which worth the praise is ur skills. i like the way u tilt when composing. keep it up!

[weekh]

Printed some of the pix on A3 size paper with Canon i9950. Didn't even bother to reduce the noise.
Solid prints and I got nothing to complain about.


If u're considering this digicam, just go for it. Don't let the noise issue deter u.

very nice composition

Seems like the 16:9 format really encourages creative composition

[eow]

Was wondering how would the future variant of lx1 (lx2) be like....
