The DMC-LX2 incorporates three wide features, a 28mm wide-angle Leica DC lens, 16:9 wide CCD, and 16:9 wide LCD.

Exceeds expectations,glad I did NOT wait

"I'm used to lugging around a DSLR and have been shopping for a 'compact' for a long time. I did my research and was concerned about the constant complaints of too much noise and how horrible the Venus engine is at rendering.

Plan for setup b4 u point and shoot

"I'm giving this camera 3 stars becasue it's not as user friendly as Canon's SD series camera I've come to love and admire.Lumix DMC-LX2 is the same as the Leica D-Lux, except it's hundreds of dollars less and has an additional finger catch on the front.

"I have fallen in love with the Panasonic Lumix LX-2. This camera is essentially a Leica D-Lux 3 with a little bit different shell. Same mechanics, same electronics. Same camera. $200 cheaper than a D-Lux 3.
