Most probably Malaysian custom. Haha~

I have 3 finger prints on my LX3 now.. and around 8 on my LX90.. Damn it.. Have you guys heard of Purosol Optical? I've bought a bottle of that cleaner. I'm going to clean my telescope and lx3 soon. I just need a blower now.

If you guys are interested in Purosol Optical, I can organise a bulk to buy from US.

I recommend Foto CLS at Pelangi Leisure Mall. Good service there. They even carry Leicas there if you're interested.
Also try Mee Too at Plaza Angsana, old shop great reputation, or alternatively their branch at Tebrau City.

I think the PC show in Sgp will usually quote SRP but with more freebies.

First shot. Have not read manual yet, just take when going to mrt from IT fair.

oh gosh, haven't visited this thread for ages... i bought a 2.5x tele few months ago... gonna post some photo tonight : ) (if my internet connection is back to normal)

Oooiii....LX3 grandmaster kevin7ae.....where have u been?

still messing wif da color mode...natural n smooth seems more like it,

vibrant is too saturated(at least in LX3 LCD) but i prefer a preset of my own XD

Make good use of the manual controls.
Especially the WB.
I find the LX3 to have tendency to go yellow n green.
I like my photos to have more red in them.
So I made my own color profile in the film modes.
Very useful really.

Vibrant isn't always suitable.
When there are ppl, it tends to make their skin tone over saturated.
But when it comes to scenery with lots of lights and colors....vibrant really helps bring out the feel of the scenery

true on that... i agree for da WB set...but i seldom use M if not necessary ... always put to A as i oso apply tat when im shooting wif my D80.. M mode i use mostly for longer exposure or nite scene...

as for da color..ya..now preset MY1 oledi ...
Con +1
Sharp +2
Vivid +0
NR -1

and at most of da rest of flim mode...
i hv Sharp +2
the rest remain da default one..

Hahahha.....u must be used to D80's sharpness d.
That's why keep adding sharpness

Will try ur settings n see how my photos turn out

muahahha...where got...D80 too bulky..tats why i get LX3(juz let D80 rest in peace in da drybox)...i know iq surely won win if compare to dslr..

ok...test it out n hope to see ur sharing soon~

hi dare_black : hows the quality of the gorillapod on lx3??

He already reached "god-like" status d~!

ya...i specially like da lake part...mavelleous~!

how to take this type of water flow pics with just on stock lx3 (no extra lens)...possible?

if juz stock wihtout ND filter...u hv to use slow shutter example more then 1second

the slower the water will more silk alike effect but then u hv to take note on ur aperture to make sure u dun over expose ....

hope my noob way help~

aperture is second to worry about.

first got to worry bout how to whole the camera still for 1 second?

sure need tripod.

yup..tat is wat i miss out ... thx for pointing out..a good tripod is a must for steady image in slow shutter speed..

okay... my shopping list now is
1. spare batt
2. tripod
3. lenspen
3.5 Ricoh LC-1 Lens cap
4. camera bag that can put in all of the above + lx3

PS : need to get a wrist strap also, anyone got a good shop to recommend to get all of the above for a reasonable price?
