LX7, etc., etc.

I think the compact camera manufacturers are all in a panic over the quality of the cameras in smart phones and tablets. I expected something good from Panasonic after the LX5 such as an LX7 with, for example, a 24/120 f2.8 zoom, 1" sensor and WA adapter, but no, all similar except, whoopee, they have an f1.4 lens, faster than anyone else.
