As all of us know, Panasonic has been the OEM of Leica Camera for many years, and with that relationship, almost always introduce a similar cheaper equivalent to the Leica principle.
One such machine worth my mention is the Panasonic LX III compact camera system. Performance wise, it's F/2 aperture brings in more light than her step-sibling D-Lux 4. Video recording has also been bumped up to HD. And the list goes on and on, all on a $400 bundle price.
Just look at the system approach of this camera and drool over the classy vintage fusion of new and old technologies. To my recollection, this was the first choice to upgrade from my Contax T3 some 6 months back...before I entered the DSLR arena.
Simply [captivating]...
