Now that I have the LX7 in nearly two years in use, I am very pleased as before. Apart from a few little things (the inability to self-timer and bracketing function to use the same example), I find the camera gorgeous. My main motivation for the purchase was, among other things, the lt., Reviews high speed camera, because I was disappointed by my predecessor cameras in this regard something. From the much-mentioned light intensity I do not have extra-speak - the lightning I've rarely needed. What perhaps might be of interest to some: The LX7 is quite suitable for infrared photography. With the right settings and adequate sunlight can be captured even infrared video.
