New Top of the Range Camera :)

Just announced today is the replacement of my favorite point and shoot (LX2) - the Panasonic LX3



This camera has the potential to produce the best image quality out of any of the small digital cameras on the market - it has a larger sensor than even the fuji F100 and maintains the full manual control of the LX2 while adding a hotshoe for external flash and a faster lens which is also wider at 24mm.

While I was hoping for a lens like the TZ series of cameras - which would have made this handsdown THE BEST compact camera, I will be buying one ASAP none-the-less. So stay tuned for a full review as soon as I can get my mitts on one.
(I should also say that i'm less than impressed with the rest of the new range, nothing too exciting and 14mp on a 1/2.33 chip is just pointless)
