    New High End Compact - Panasonic Lumix LX5

    Yesterday, Panasonic announced a replacement for their revered Lumix LX3 digital camera.

    I still want compact cameras that will fit in my pocket. But I do think there's a place for this camera. It will be interesting to see how Canon counters this as their G-Series is the main competition for Panasonic's LX-Series cameras.

    Yeah, I heard that this goes up to iso 12,000 or something. The sensitivity of these sensors is getting crazy good.

    You didn't read the article, did you?

    It goes to ISO 12,800. But I don't think I'd go over ISO 1600. Usable ISO 1600 is impressive for a compact camera, though.
