After GX1 and GX7 now the LX100

I was tired aground on photo shoots with backpack and 12.5 kg SLR + lenses + flash. That was just too much smuggling me! After some good reviews for Gx1 I tested two years ago in my photo everyday the MFT system.
With four lenses (14-400mm focal length range KB - the equivalent to the backpack) and a saving of 10 kg I achieved results that the Canon EOS 5D Mark II are lagging behind with respective lenses very little, or not at all. Absolutely professional Suitable for up to the "Sport". With the continuous advance of the LX100 even "Sport" goes - but because, unfortunately enough, the Zoom (75mm KB) then often no longer made.

The LX100 for me in everyday life:
+ Zoom range sufficient as "everyday camera" for press photography, impressive brightness and free parking facilities.
+ Connection of external flash
+ Tripping speed
+ Image quality - even when shooting at night - that's when Gx1 still a real shortcoming
+ - Price 799 - is not "without". Measured by the Panasonic Lumix GX Vario 12-35mm F2.8 standard zoom (approx 860 but again ok.

- IA function is too easy, imperceptible selected
- No, not even in the accessories, well-tuned lens hood
- No touchscreen
Not swivel monitor -

Up to me colleagues look more sympathetically (whether of small equipment - I've got more sympathy for my colleagues, about 10kg more) I'm very happy to go with this (so far) reliable camera. That was with the Gx1 or otherwise - which was often only "Secondary Camera".

The LX100 is currently often my sole and reliable companion!
