Pros: just what I was looking for

Cons: problem compensating highlights with shadows

Opinion: I took recently (used) but with very few shots the , Lumix , well done commands in the right place , etc. There is a pear tree, I can not compensate for the highlights with the shadows ...... on the Panasonic there is, that function to lighten or darken separately, shadows and lights, but it is not enough. generally I submit and then in post... Correct. I state that I always shoot in manual. ( I feel better ) I also have a Nikon 750 with , type 24/105 sigma art and more and this problem I do not have' where am I wrong? anyone want to help me? thanks Roberto

Pros: Reflex versatility in a compact body, an all-in-one that is a kit of its own.

Cons: The electric zoom makes it fragile and sometimes slow for some photographic genres.

Opinion: Purchased back in 2014 it still makes me company, although in the meantime I also took the mark II. At the time when I bought the LX100 I chose it both for the novelty (it had just come out) and because I was looking for something that would flank my Leica M Monochrom with the 35mm perpetually hooked. I wanted something complete and versatile, but small, that would give me a photographic chance in all those situations in which a monochromatic M body can not do it, so some close-up and close-up macro-like, some colorful sunset in passing, a bit of medium-canvas etc ... I add that I had no intention of building a second kit, preferring to invest the money in the optics of the main system, and therefore I had scanned all the compacts and bridges on the market at the time. The LX100 seemed to respond to all my wishes and, in fact, so it was. The lens of its is a bit soft, has a good center at all openings but is poor at the edges even diaphragm, but it is bright and covers the classic focal lengths 24-75mm, extendable up to 120 mm but only in jpg without too much degradation. It does not suffer heavily from the lack of light and can be used even in disluminous interiors. The coupling with the slightly cropped m4/3 sensor helps to create a particular photographic "mood", which likes or dislikes, but which has personality and is well recognizable. It is no small feat for a compact all-round that in fact has been able to carve out its own audience of admirers and has not fallen into anonymity like other projects. The LX100 has also satisfied my propensity to use various filters (polarizer, nd1000), high-sync on camera taking advantage of the central shutter, off-camera flash driving, in short, to play 360 degrees with photographs as if I had in my hand a real machine complete with all its standard functions. Some hardware/software limitations present in the original LX100 were then filed, but without upheavals in the general system, in the mark II. The main critical note is its fragility due to the electric zoom, which requires attention as sand and dust can infiltrate inside making it seize. For the same reason the LX100, which can be managed as you manage a Leica M having all the physical rings to set the values of ISO, times and aperture, is not as reactive - indeed it is slow - as there is always this zoom that must be positioned electrically before you can proceed to the fateful click.

Pros: Dedicated rings for the direct control of shooting parameters, slow with a versatile, bright and quality focal range.

Cons: The electronic zoom handling mechanism.

Opinion: Phenomenal camera that I have owned and recommended to anyone who has asked me for a generalist camera, for use in the family and for travel. Its m4/3 sensor combined with such a bright lens makes it unique in the panorama of compacts. If you do not have special needs it may be enough on your own to meet the needs of many photography enthusiasts. Too bad for the fixed display they kept even in the mark II.

Pros: Compactness, control rings, lens quality

Cons: Nobody.

Opinion: Dust, for me it was not a problem, I have been owning this machine for about 4 years, but to date, I have not detected any kind of problem on the sensor. It's fun for the remains. I mainly use it for street photos, and I always take it with me in the car or in the backpack, and it gave me some nice satisfactions, giving me great shots. It has a lens corresponding to the 24-75, which allows you to cover all the shooting focals and with its brightness from excellent results, and the noise that is lurking is easily overcome with post-productions. I also own two Nikons, the Z7 and Z6ii, with their Zmount optics, but when I go around town, this Panasoninc makes me want to photograph, small, invisible, silent, really great and I recommend it, especially the new Lxii series.

Pros: raw quality control backs

Cons: nobody but the dust

Opinion: without adding anything else to the comments, I wanted to give a tip to solve the dust problem at home, with a plastic bottle cut from both ends and a vacuum cleaner, having it at the minimum of power, zooming 3 or 4 times, the dust disappears from the sensor and machine body :-) try to believe, I carried out the procedure 3 times remaining very satisfied with the result.
