Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 review
If you've not yet been swayed by one of Panasonic's interchangeable lens Lumix G compact system cameras, but would still like to achieve improved quality image, then the metal construction and comprehensively featured LX series is well worth checking out.- Relatively lightweight and compact dimensions for a metal build enthusiasts' camera
- bright aperture lens
- built-in visual effects
- hotshoe and accessory port for attachment of optional extras
- such as an EVF
- Fixed screen LCD
- priced not a great deal cheaper than one of Panasonic's interchangeable lens G-series compacts system cameras
Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 review
As a point and shoot camera for those wanting to upgrade to something better or a smaller back up for someone owning a G-series compact, the LX7 cuts the proverbial mustard, but, despite being as consistently competent and reliable as one might hope, in present company doesn't have enough about it...

One hell of camera, LX7 comes with the fastest aperture Leica lens and a compact 1/1.7" sensor. Further, the inclusion of Venus engines does allow LX7 to produce images with leasing colors and a good contrast.
- Fastest lens
- Impressive image stabilization
- Decent auto-focus
- Crisp and clear images
- Noise at high sensitivities
- Bit expensive
- Focus seems to look daft sometime
- Low battery life
Panasonic Lumix DMC LX7 Review
The Panasonic Lumix DMC LX7 is a little known camera simply because it didn't ship out of the house of Canon or Nikon. What is little known about this camera is that it not only sports a Leica lens, but also the fastest lens in a point and shoot camera.- Fastest lens in the category
- Leica lens is exceptionally sharp for compact form factor with physical aperture dials
- Excellent video bitrate along with stereo sound
- Focusing can be a little daft at times
- Archaic menu system that is a pain to browse through
Great Macro feature
Compact. A very fast lens that can shoot in very low light. Great Macro feature. Glad I bought mine. A shame they've discontinued it as I think they came close to perfection with this model!
Hands-on Review: Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7
This tiny full-featured 10.1MP camera, with a mostly metal body, boasts several benefits over Panasonic's highly-rated Lumix DMC-LX5, which it replaces. Improved aspects include the LCD screen, sensor, and Venus Engine processor with multi-process noise reduction.

Interchangable lens compact system cameras may offer a more portable option than a DSLR, but unless you're using a relatively flat pancake lens, they're still considerably bulkier than a digital compact camera.- Speedy auto focus

Great Compact Camera
A premium compact with excellent image quality & control. Ease of use could be improved though:- No touch screen (so no touch focus), no articulated lcd, no built-in view-finder, no remote. GPS, Wi-Fi and a microphone input would be welcome, too.
Panasonic Lumix LX7 Compact Camera
Panasonic has taken an interesting approach with the new LX7 - it looks more like a range finder than a typical point-and-shoot camera. The lens does not retract fully inside the camera and with the maximum aperture at f/1.4 it is one of the fastest lenses available for compact cameras.- Fast lens
- Manual aperture ring
- Creative movie mode
- High noise above 1600 ISO
