Well....if u guys haven't heard, Panasonic is coming out with their next big model which is the GF-1.

Similar in looks and build, but bigger and with interchangeable lens.

And I heard some rumors about LX5 coming out next year (I think they skipped the "4" due to some sort of pantang? LoL....)

It's not a rumor. LX4 has already been announce by Panasonic- 1st Quarter 2010.  Dont think they will be allowed to use LX5 instead as it will then clash with Leica D Lux5.

Oh....so they announced it already?
What's improved in the LX4?
The GF-1's 20mm F1.7 kitlens is damn wicked~! laugh.gif

I think Panasonic just got so sick of ppl speculating about LX4 coming out soon that it affected the LX3 sales mebe. So they announced that LX4 will only appear in 1st Quarter 2010. No other details were given.

If u googled for LX4, mostly come out is about GF-1 ler.... sweat.gif

uhuh....from ur expression, i m guessing it must be something freaking expensive....hahaha

Went to the camera shop and looked around.
Choices seem to be:
1) FL36
2) FL36R (not sure what's the difference hmm.gif )
3) FL360

I support that thumbup.gif  LX-3 is not like Nikon and Canon DSLR that have many 3rd party flash with reasonable price .  FalconEye is "just nice" to match with LX3:  Not a top class flash, not very accurate, but match with LX3's "standard", and not too $$$.  The only thing to consider - the size of it!  flex.gif

If i'm not mistaken FL-36 is obsolete, replaced by FL-36R (R= wireless remote with Olympus DSLR).  That price is about 2 times of FalconEye's.  FL-360 is 3 times of FlaconEye's ??

Laichong shows the face because he is doing bulk for FalconEye mah  brows.gif  I bought one from him and is a happy user now  rclxm9.gif

hahaha....now i understand his little smirky face.
How much is the falcon eye, and how's the swivel?
Can it turn like the 580EXii?
