Panasonic Lumix LX100 Review – Verdict

Panasonic Lumix LX100 product shot 9

Panasonic Lumix LX100

When the LX100 was initially announced it created quite a buzz in the photography world, with many speculating that Panasonic would have a hit on their hands.

Having had some time to test the camera out on real world conditions, it’s become clear that that’s definitely the case.

The excellent build quality and intuitive controls are a fantastic starting point, making the camera a pleasure to use. Once you’ve started shooting with the camera, you’re sure to be impressive with the excellent quality of images the LX100 produces.

It’s not without flaw, however – the EVF is slightly lacking in terms of specification, while it might not be as compact as some of its competitors.

What quibbles there are seem like nitpicking in the face of what is a truly impressive compact and one that both a pleasure to use and that produces some excellent images
