It lacks a tilting LCD screen
Making it harder to get shots from above and below eye-level
Controls
It's got a fixed LCD and the lens really needs a hood to minimize flare
Expensive. Bulky. Overactive video autofocus. Sensor resolution limits detail. No built-in flash. Fixed LCD doesn't support touch input. Lacks microphone input
No touch or tilt LCD
Flash is a separate piece
A bit large for the pocket
Small size is tough-going for those with larger hands
Price is a bit steep at $900
Rear LCD is not a touch screen
No external mic jack
Lacks built-in flash
JPEG noise reduction and sharpening are rather crude at low ISOs
Lens range can be limiting
12MP may not be enough for some users
Manually positioning an AF point is awkward (and workaround limits customization choices)
Large Micro Four Thirds sensor, Fast lens, Dedicated dials for manual controls
Pricey, No touch-sensitive display, Display doesn't tilt, UI needs more work, Slightly bulky for a compact
We liked the Canon PowerShot G7 X for its ease of use, making it a good camera for those who want to let the camera do the brunt of the work instead. Even then, it still had manual controls to cater to the more advanced shutterbug. The Panasonic LX100 tak...
Abstract: Unlike its predecessors, which use the 1/1.7-inch or smaller image sensors, the LX100 uses a 16-megapixel Micro Four Thirds (MFT) image sensor found in Panasonic's interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras. This sensor is about twice the size of the 1-inch...

Una excelente y resolutiva compacta a la que solo le fallan algunos pequeños detalles para ser una de las mejores del momento. Con un precio algo menor se le podría perdonar casi todo...
Qualité d'image jusqu'à 3200 ISO, Zoom lumineux et de qualité, Excellente ergonomie / encombrement, Réactivité / Autofocus / vidéo 1080p et 4K
Zoom de 3,1X et 12,8 MP "seulement", Viseur petit / techno LCD séquentielle, Flash externe / cache objo LFAC1 en option, Touches Filter et iA non modifiables
Ça faisait longtemps qu'un appareil photo ne nous avait pas autant enthousiasmés. Peut-être le Fujifilm X100 en son temps. Il faut dire que Panasonic a mis les petits plats dans les grands pour nous concocter ce compact hors norme: capteur Micro 4/3 sans...

écran non tactile et non orientable, pas de prise micro, pas de prise casque, légèrement trop volumineux pour entrer dans uen poche
Dans les faits le Panasonic Lumix LX100 tient les promesses avancées lors de sa présentation. C'est un appareil photo compact expert qui délivre un excellent confort d'utilisation et une excellente qualité d'image. Une nouvelle référence est née....

Écran non tactile et pas orientable, Pas de prise micro ni de prise casque pour la vidéo, Temps d'enregistrement un peu long, Dynamique dans les hautes lumières
Quand j'ai commencé à travailler pour la presse photo, il y a quelques années, personne ne pariait vraiment sur le futur de Panasonic dans le domaine: une marque technicienne et orientée grand public qui n'avait pas vraiment de légitimité dans le cœur des...
