lol...how come lx3 can fit dslr lens...conversion lens only..

a noob question here..i realize something weird on lx3 compared to other camera..
normally the camera lens barrel will extend when zooming towards tele and shrink when zooming towards wide..
but lx3 does this in opposite direction..anyone can explain this??

not really lah. on my 18-55 dslr lens... in 18mm is fully extend. turn until about 30mm fully shorten... turn again same direction until 55mm, fully extend again

explanation... any optics major here?

[noob question] is there any trick to take beautiful beach picture? or do i just use what the camera recommend? i mean using the beach scene mode? and why is it need the flash when its 2pm in the noon?

the trick of getting a beautiful beach picture is to go to a beautiful clean beach or beautiful dirty beach + photoshop combo heheh

about the flash, it's because if u try taking a picture of someone at a beach on a sunny day...the person will be dark due to shadow, particularly when you're facing the sea. flash is needed to light up the person's face. i know it's pretty counter-intuitive. pop-up flash is actually used for bright environments, and very bad for dark environments. obviously it doesnt have to be 2pm lah.

anyway, it helps to go take beach picture at dawn n sunset. those are the times it would normally look best.

about settings, well i dun think there's one setting to rule them all. experiment lar, that's the joy of photography hehe. try different white balance settings. if u got tripod, play with long exposures

I;m desperate for an LX3 gathering right now.Damn noob~~

My pictures Noob using iA

DKXINJ: u can't. But u can attach some numbers of conversion lens. and from the web, u can actually attach LX3 to telescope, shot photo through a spotting scope.
