Panasonic Lumix LX7
Panasonic has updated its expert compact-like it has every even-numbered year since 2006. The LX7 therefore replaces the LX5, with a few changes to design and handling and-most importantly-a new lens that's record-breakingly fast, with wide-angle aperture...- Good build quality
- handles well
- good balance between simplicity and advanced functions
- Very fast lens at all focal lengths (telephoto aperture at f/2.3!
- Excellent responsiveness
- even when shooting RAW+Jpeg
- Lens quality very good from f/2.8
- sensor gives good results up to 800 ISO
- Lens ring can only be used to control aperture-only useful in A and M modes
- Not many customisable controls
- High sensitivity settings aren't handled as well as in the Sony RX100
- Colours are a little cold in video mode
Panasonic Lumix LX7 review Review
The LX7 is an addictive compact camera. The more you use it, the more you want to play. The direct control over the lens aperture is something that would greatly enhance the appeal of many compacts, and without question it's the LX7's best feature.- Tactile aperture control
- Sharp lens
- Impressive stills output
- Some noise at high sensitivities
- A little more expensive than the competition
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!
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
- Bright aperture lens
- 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...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 review
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 may not score as highly as other recently reviewed cameras, such as the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 and Fujifilm X10, but it is still a very capable camera and the best Lumix LX camera yet.
