new product release then sure the older will gonna be replaced..i think lx3 will stop to produce anymore..

btw, i hope that the ts in lx3 thread can combine all the panasonic lx1,lx2,lx3,lx5 in one thread and change the title panasonic lx series...all lx series in one family thread mah rite??that's my opinion la..smile.gif

LOL our TS totally inactive, busy at /k/ doh.gif

the spec of LX5..
seriously... Aperture is only from F2.0 - F3.3 only? O_O"

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Pana...onic_dmclx5.asp

while LX3 Aperture is from F2.0 - F8.0... is that a downgrade?

Would like to try out LX5...
but definitely will not upgrade my LX3 to LX5.
the mp still the same... 10.1 =.="
if LX5 mp is 12. i would consider...

Haha you're seriously misunderstood here smile.gif

Check here:

Widest Aperture:

At 24mm = f/2.0
At 90mm(3.8x optical zoom) = f/3.3

Smallest aperture : Same for all focal length which is f/8

Yes.
I'm wondering whether we can use LX3's screen protector? Not sure if it's 100% the same.

What's the difference? blink.gif

Same gang~ i also encounter same problem~  tongue.gif
most probably is hand shake or when we press the snap button~
try press the snap button 1st and release after the pic is done... but i dono whether like tis will spoil the cam boh...  tongue.gif

Most likely it's due to the number of pixels your computer can display.Are both yours Full HD(1920x1080)?

There's a huge huge difference in terms of sharpness between just HD Ready(720p) and FHD(1080p)

If not, it's just the LX5 screen fooling you, i got fooled also tongue.gif

Anyway, you guys have flickr?Come come share accounts laaa biggrin.gif Here's mine http://www.flickr.com/photos/kytz/

Haha like unker ian said, those are "fake bokeh" which can only be achieved when you're doing macro shots.

Try shooting your subject 2 metres away,see got blur background or not biggrin.gif

Perhaps you should look at the real DSLR bokeh shots brows.gif

TS! Count me in the 1st post! I just bought my new toy (white)! hhehehe tongue.gif

Bought from Funan Digital Mall, SG at $700... I think the price is a bit high, but i'm anxious to get it so just close one eye tongue.gif


Added on October 14, 2010, 11:27 pmBtw, the shop gave me SanDisk Memory Card 8GB Class 4... I asked for Panasonic ones but the boss said the bundle memang doesn't come with Panasonic Memory Card sad.gif

The shop is selling authentic Panasonic Leather Case for only $100, it's cheaper than buy online right?
*
For me i wouldn't spend on the casing that much, just get a generic leather casing would be sufficient like these ones

Or better still, save up for a flashgun.Good for portraiture and night shots brows.gif
