new d-lux 2 from Leica

[fgianni]

im actually a liar, i got the panasonic version of the camera. good enough for me though, and in black I find it to be one sleek number. remindes me of that part in the hitchhikers books when they see the black space ship at the restaurant at the end of the universe, the exact quote slips my mind.

Did you get your camera?
Any chance of seeing an ISO 400 picture taken with RAW and with no noise reduction applied? I am in the market for a pocket Digicam, and after much searching I restricted the choice between the Panasonic DMC-LX1 and the Ricoh GR-D

Unfortunately if you want a really pocketable digicam with RAW, there is not much choice around, so after mistreating the camera in my previous posts I might have to eat my words.

I will post some shots soon, I might write up a short review too. This weekend being halloween, I am a little busy though.

These, all but two, were taken with the Panasonic DMC LX1. Definitely a street shooter. Virtually no shutter lag.

Heh, I asked some people if they would care if I posted LX1 pictures in the gallery and some people got angry, or something. Anyway, I have some pictures in my FlickR:

They arent fresh out of the camera, but I was never too good at photoshop anyways.

Nice work Einars, impressive results. "Hands of steel" indeed. I especially like the way you're making use of the 16:9 ratio, very well done.
