No I did not zoom. Because when I use F2.8 the picture came out too bright...
How to avoid that?

When I bought my camera few days ago, the salesman told me that the adapters and filters for LX3 is available in Mid Valley already...
I can't recall whats the name of the shop.. But he said near the center wing there..

Eh.. Yes that's the one! U went there?

I got a noob question.... when u add on a 3x tele lens...
so by default i already have 2.5x... so with the lens.. it will be

2.5 x 3?

= 7.5 x optical zoom????

I bought mine at Jusco too.

1) The lens is wide if u are worried it will look long.. u can change the aspect ratio to 4:3 or 3:2.




So far until now.. I only got 1 complain about the LX3.. when you go out with friends.. and u wanna take photo.. those sitting further away from the camera will think they're not in the picture... so when u say, "hey pose for the camera!". they'll go, "I'm in the picture??!!"

I guess its not a complain after all..

if you are willing to spend abit more. Jusco Home Center still has stock for black colour. Try Jusco Cheras Selatan. I just saw it yesterday. RM1799 though. dont know if u will get 10% voucher. but u can try.

Guys need to ask.. are you guys using mini tripod for your LX3?
My mini tripod broke into two already.. Haha!
Wondering if u guys got any recommendation for a mini tripod under RM100?

Here are some that I've taken with LX3 few weeks ago. Single shot RAW.

Hey guys there are some questions I would like to ask about the LX3 that I still dont know


1) for AF mode selection.. what is the difference between the one with a rectangular box and the rectangular box with a H on the lower right?

2) for Pre AF, what does it mean? and what does QAF and CAF means?

3) is Intelligent Exposure effective? do you guys use them??

4) for stabilizer options, what is mode 1 and mode 2??? I just leave it in Auto all the time..


sorry for the noob questions! please help me!

Thank you very much PCHo, zeeker87 and RoxyGal for your input on the questions I asked. I learn something I didn't know about my LX3 today! Haha! appreciate it! thanks again...

taking multiple shots rather than single shot also helps with noise. using single shot HDR, you can see more noise!

Anyone uses SILKYPIX to edit your RAW images??
I tried using SILKYPIX, however when loading the .RW2 file, the software hangs. Anyone faced similar problems before??
