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
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.

Because the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 costs almost $500, there are quite a few photographers who won't give it a second glance. For beginners, this is probably a smart idea. However, if you have some photographic experience, the LX7 is well worth a second glance ... and maybe more.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7
Announced two years after its predecessor, the LX5, Panasonic's Lumix DMC-LX7 fits into the same market slot but now comes in a white body as well as traditional black. Its 10.1-megapixel sensor has the same resolution as the LX5's but it's a new CMOS chip, instead of CCD, which was used in the LX5.- You're looking for a pocketable digicam with a wide range of user-adjustable controls
- You need good performance in low light levels
- You want Full HD movie recording
- You want effective image stabilisation for movies and still pictures
- You'd like fast autofocusing.
- You're looking for a significant update to the previous model. (The improvements aren't enough to justify the investment
- You want the ability to zoom in and out rapidly, You require in-camera red-eye reduction processing.
In order to combat the onslaught of increasingly capable smart phone cameras, many of the best point and shoot camera manufacturers are turning to increased image quality and sensor size to keep their products relevant.
- A fast lens
- good sensor and convenient manual controls make for high-quality images
- This camera has a limited zoom range
