I am very happy with my Panasonic Lumix LX3. I bought it last October. The LX3 takes great picture and has been my “default” camera ever since. I like the fast ultra-wide angle zoom lens by Leica – 24-60mm/F2.0-2.8 (35mm equiv.).

I used it to take landscape, scenery, sunset, people, food and etc.

More and better resolution pictures at my Flickr LX3 Photostream.

been aiming for this model too..but the price just won’t come down!

btw.. they have a G1 model.. is it better?

For me…DSLR is not for me.. i am not into photography and thus I have no patience to learn all the DSLR intricacies..

I just need a GOOD point and shoot camera and I think LX3 is the ONE.

The Panasonic G1 is closer to a DSLR. It can use interchangeable lenses.

The LX3 biggest “drawback” as a point and shoot camera is the narrow zoom range. With the limited range, it’s hard to get good shots of birds and insects.

I recommend MS Color if you are looking for the best price in town. More info LX3 price at Kian Ann’s Trekking Forum.

But G1 is also a point and shoot camera right?

For LX3, if I’m not doing macro shots like insects or flowers, more like scenic and people shots, that will be fine?

I will not call the G1 a point and shoot camera. To me, it’s a Japanese make digital Leica M.

The Lumix LX3 will be perfect for scenic and people shots.

Go search Flickr and you can see amazing photos made by the LX3.

You may not be paying less for digital camera at PC shows. You probably end up paying for “freebies” which are useless.

Yes. I brought it up Mt Kinabalu. But I was too tired to take pictures during the climb, only early morning shots…
