the reason i choose lx3 is because im looking for a smaller cam when i dont feel like bringing my dslr out... and i believe lx3 is one of the best out there without burning a big hole in your pocket... i like lx3 because of the 24mm wide angle and also the F2.0 - F2.8 aperture... and i like the way it looks...

A lot of ppl with top of the line SLRs oso buy LX3/DL4 and G11 ler.  We cant always carry the big SLR around right?

yeah you are so right uncle... but i can still carry my dslr around la... mine is not as badass as yours!!! if you carry your 5dmk2 with the batt grip and 70-200 lens, i think your neck will snap in a matter of minutes!!! haha...

b4 u copy the file into sd card, format it first..then save into the sd card..then put into your camera and switch to view photos mode.. it should run oledi..just follow the instruction on it.
*

Guys,got some questions here:

1)What's the cheapest LX3 available?
2)What type of memory card does it use?Micro SD?
3)Is it user friendly as in just "point and shoot"?
*
1) the cheapest i got quote was in PC fair... RM1500 cash... normally the price of LX3 vary from RM1.5k++ to 1.6k++
2) it uses SDHC card...
3)yup extremely user friendly... just turn the dial mode to iA and start shooting away!!!

what is the shooting format usually you guys using? RAW or JPEG?
*
if my dslr i will definitely shoot in RAW... but LX3 i tend to shoot in JPEG more because i hate the RAW converter... anyone can suggest a better RAW converter??? can i use photoshop CS4???
