arr.. i have seen that before... posted in this forum too... quite reasonable le... didnt know it has 3.0x tele too...
crappiness... you make me wanna sell my current one and get that instead.. ahaaa

haha... but dslr's size is bigger than lx3... which u can't buy...
and.. dslr lens investment.. i can't afford it... haa

it adds more fun to lx3, more effects... im lazy to edit it in photoshop...
and guess what, i got a new filter.... sepia/vintage filter.. im surprise that lx3 dont have it..! (even my se k750i has it.. haha)

and i hv tried the palarizer filter.. it's awesome! gonna post it tonight..

woke up quite early today, just couldnt wait for saturday to test the polarizer..
went down to the river next to my office, and surprisingly, saw a swam family... (used to see them almost every morning)..
and they swim nearby the river bank...!

i was too excited and running late as well, just can test for a while...
and learning to use the PL as well... I was using manual and need to adjust all the properties properly because the polarizer will dim the lens...

here you go...



i have forgotten with PL or not.. haha.. too rush and not well organized..


with PL


with PL


without PL


gonna test it more on saturday!.> : )

so, if u zoomed full 2.5x.. you will get 180mm instead of 60mm? (with x3 tele)
how about wide angle..? how do u calculate, for example 0.45x wide angle...
24mm x 0.45 = 12.6mm? hahaha

good to attract more lx3 buyer...!

I bought mine from Ted's camera chadstone melbourne... $700, just can bargained some freebies that's...
I got 2GB SD card, a pouch and a lousy screen protector... and u get the membership, free printing for 50 photos..

and.. the real power of lx3... according to the photographer, all the photos are taken with LX3 and some of the photos are cropped and PS..
look at the bokeh effect... that's unbelievable!

here you go again : )


Ant: F2.0 1/200 Macro Sat+2 Cropped



Parrot: F3.5 1/40 ISO80



Melbourne City: F2.2 1/800 B&W


The good thing in australia is, the wildlife wont run away even you stand close to them. (well some of them)...
The ant was the most hilarious, it frozen like a model and let you take photo, it's about hald inch long...

Still, have no chance to take night shoot. Sunshine even at 8pm at the moment, and I'm living far away from the city.. : (

but the casino is opposite the city..

LX3 with leica accessories... interesting... and charger? haha

hahah... everyone is getting crazy with the lx3 accessories!!!
have anyone got the 3x tele?

have anyone here dropped their lx3 before?

went to shopping yesterday, wrapped lx3 with my jacket and put inside my beg.. when i pull the jacket out, i've totaly forgotten my camera inside there!

and BANG... my camera fell down on concrete floor!!!... i was heartbroken... quickly grab it and test it with lot of shots... a small dent at the bottom corner, near to the tripod screw... luckily everything is still fine.. phew....

oo.. what effect was that? looks like sepia... can u tell me the setting? : ) thanks

Took it from La Perousa Sydney, editted with photoshopped though...



bokeh... i hope lx3 can do that... however, it's photoshopped...

the first one.. over vibrant.. agree with u.. haha

the second one, I didnt edit the color, I think I was using dynamic sat+2.. lx3 is sensitive to red color... :/

Then using PS create the fake bokeh effect by adding a blurred background and mask the first layer...
no time for manual focus at that moment.. it was a random shot... so, no time to play around..

Now, I like the dynamic B&W... it's really good..
