friday - LX3!

The Lumix LX3 has arrived! I am waiting for the battery to charge and while I am waiting I'm trying to read the directions pamphlet. It looks easy if I was to do AUTO settings but complicated if I want to do the special stuff. My head is spinning with trying to read it. But I'm hoping that after the battery is charged and I can actually be doing ( Read more... )

Good luck with the new camera. I have a soft spot for Lumix - I have a little LX3 - they are known for their good (Leica) lenses.

I don't know why I thought you had a LX2, not a LX3 - but the photos you show (some taken with the Lumix) were a big influence in me wanting to get one. I love all your photos and try to figure out which are taken with the Lumix or the Nikon.

Ooops. sorry, I meant the LX2. But the LX3 improves on that.

And as far which photos are taken on that camera as opposed to the Nikon D90, its fun to keep people guessing. My point is that in many situations, you can't tell the difference.

I love having a little space in my purse for my camera, too. I don't relish the idea of taking it in and out of a camera bag all the time. Although maybe I should for protection, but my purse is all soft inside and it travels well.

I'm happy for you, Mary Lou! Can't wait to see what you do with it . . . like the infrared lens.

I already did take an infrared photo so I know I can do it! But it wasn't very artistic - I can't wait to experiment more and get better.

Hope the trip wasn't too much for you. Hope to see you tomorrow.
