1.0 out of 5 stars You suck Panasonic. We want the LX8., December 5, 2014
By
Shutterbug LA (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Panasonic LUMIX LX100 16.8 MP Point and Shoot Camera with Integrated Leica DC Lens (Black) (Electronics)
I was eagerly looking forward to this camera as I have owned the LX5 and presently own the LX7 for my personal compact camera.
When the initial sample images came out online, I was, well unimpressed. But I still pre ordered the camera based on my previous positive experiences with the LX series.
I attributed the soft cornered, not so sharp samples I saw online as to possibly being a shortcoming of the lack of raw file processing support, or perhaps pre-release firmware.
I use the LX7 I have now as a pocketable discreet travel camera. I own DSLRs, but they're large and conspicuous for trips to local places and foreign ones where you're trying to stay low key. The LX100 doesn't fit in your pocket which necessitates that you now figure out what kind of bag to get for it. Not a deal breaker but it changes a fundamental advantage that I was use to with the LX series.
The LX100 has an almost 22mm field of view when set to the 16:9 aspect ratio. This I think could be one of it's most fundamental strengths. No other compact boasts this field of view (save the previous LX7) and it's fantastic for travel landscapes and filling your 16:9 aspect ratio HDTV, projector, iMac screen and even smartphone.
Too bad that if you plan to have anything except a subject of focus in the center you will immediately notice how utterly crappy- and I REALLY mean- utterly crappy the corner and edge sharpness are.
Want to shoot that nice vista you see in front of you in that beautiful wide sweeping view in the tiny EVF? Well, make sure there's something in the middle that's powerful enough to never let your eye wander away from the middle of that photo or it's going to be asking WTF is happening to the focus in the shot.
I'm talking about shooting at 1/250 at f/8 on a sunny day. Not even at f/1.7 at ISO 1600 in the dark.
If you like hand held HDR, which is a joy with the LX7, you'll be screwed with the LX100. I have my LX7 set up to do a normal exposure, a -2 exposure, and a +2 exposure. Since I don't travel with a tripod when I use my compact, I need to be able to get these exposures to use in a program like Photomatix. The LX100 doesn't allow bracketing options larger than 1 stop. You can go 5 exposures at -2,-1,0,+1,+2 but forget hand holding 5 steady exposures like this. So for handheld HDR, a fail.
I also like to shoot into the sun, and have experienced the purple fringing and green globe flares widely reported on the forums. If you've experience the joys of good multi coated optics in the past, be prepared to remember exactly why they're a great feature if you decide to buy the LX100.
I wanted to like this camera SO BADLY, I bought it TWICE. When my preorder failed to meet up to my expectations, DPreview released a review giving this compact it's highest score ever. An 85%Platinum Diamond Crusted, Her Royal Majesty's Seal of Ultimate Approval award. The highest score ever given to a compact camera on the planet.
So I said to myself, OK, maybe there's something wrong with my take on this camera.
So I bough it AGAIN. Like an idiot.
Well the second go round was really the same as the first. The lens was unimpressive, I still had fuzzy corners when I went wide, the same flaring, and I have to say that for $900 the image quality blows. The high ISO performance is really nothing to write home about.
In truth, I have also been using Sony's RX100 M3 which a neighbor has graciously lent me. It's fantastic. It doesn't have that luxurious wide field of view that the LX100 has, but you know what? The images that it is able to take in is sharp, with fabulous resolution and the images I process in Lightroom are just amazing. If you're on the fence- get the Sony.
Panasonic, there is a snowballs chance in hell that someone from your marketing research department will read this.
So, let's go over this. Smartphones are killing your compact sales. My iPhone in good light is taking better photos than your LX100. So you need luxury compacts to help pay your rent.
That's great. I've been a photographer for over 20 years, and I'd be willing to pay between $800-$1200 for an amazing compact camera. But not for this camera. No way.
Go back to the drawing board, and build the LX8 for us. Some of us do want sharp images at the widest setting, so why don't you suck it up and buy Sony's 1" sensor from them, or invest a little money and R&D your own that can compete.
4K? Well, to tell you honestly, for a compact camera I don't need 4K. And for all my video friends who do, why does the LX100 have a click noisy aperture? Why no touch screen focus to help follow focus? Why no tilty LCD? The camera's too big to fit in a pocket anyway so you can't argue it was for compactness. Why no live video feed out? It's impossible to focus in the tiny EVF.
1 Star Panasonic. 1 Bloody Star.
