One thing you can say about Panasonic Lumix DMC LX3 is it has a real wide angle lens. I mean, really, really wide for a point-and-shoot compact camera.

Take a look at these samples, here, here and here. At 24mm, it can really take panoramic pictures that make you go wow.

So, if panoramic pictures, close up photographs and general picture-taking, coupled with superb image quality, are the things that you need in a camera, then the LX3 will be the obvious choice.

Panasonic said the LX3 also features a film mode with six color types and three types of monochrome selections. “Much like selecting from different film types, this function gives the user the flexibility and creative freedom to take more expressive digital photos.”
