Agree, I would like a smaller (and better: more DR, more resolution, swivel LCD) FF camera than the 6D and will gladly pay extra for that. Judging from the forums there is a good market for such a...

difficult to say what a realistic price is; both are niche products and quite expensive compared to entry level APS-C DSLRs with kit zoom (with more features and higher speed, but lower optical...

turns out the PQ321 is going to sell for $ 3800, that's a lot of money ...I'm sure someone else will undercut this soon ;-) And VERY expensive if you see the high resolutions (e.g. 2560x1600...

as mentioned, I had a few that prove unreadable after some years. I didn't check every disk after burning though, only a few when starting to use a new batch of disks. The unreadable disks are from...

Is this related to the feature that 7D in combination with some recent lenses like the 100IS can also correct for back/forth movement for macro photography, while most older bodies cannot do this?...

It's one of the reasons I'm considering buying FF body instead of APS-C (far more choice in top quality and/or bright WA/SWA primes). But I'm also keeping an eye on EOS-M, because I'd rather have a...

I found the same problem with older DVD-R discs, trouble is they were fine after recording (checked most of them) but not any more about five years later. Two of these DVD's cause many minutes of...

do you mean you compared both cameras side-by-side, in the same lighting conditions? In some cameras the EVF gets slower in lower light levels (but I have no idea if that applies to the EVF in LF1).

yeah, it's funny that the LF1 is discredited because of its f/5.6 at 200mm tele (at 90mm the difference is even smaller), while he would consider the TZ30 with its tiny sensor and even dimmer lens...

but 28mm on the LF1 is also a compromise, it all depends on ones shooting style / subject which spec is more of a limitation.

as I mentioned: been there, done that ... Using a compact with just a WA/normal prime can be great, and good training - but sometimes it is just too limiting. And definitely not suitable for my...

maybe it's good that a relatively expensive compact does not shout 'steal me!'.

Somewhere else on the forum it was said that it is the same sensor, but with LF1 they are using more of the pixels (while sacrificing the LX7 handling of different aspect ratios). Sounds credible...

if the LX7 is sooo much better you have to wonder why Panasonic sells it in the US at half the LF1 introductory price ;-) I think they recognise that there is very little real competition for LF1...

Did anyone confirm such a big difference using another RAW converter (or isn't there any other choice at the moment?). I agree that the Nikon looks a lot better in these scenes, however ... in such...

exactly, a whole generation of digital photographers and videographers has grown up using 'crappy' 100-200K EVF's. 200K is no longer state of the art, but it is plenty sufficient for framing and...

The thought process changes even more if you have just ONE prime available. In the analog days I used an Olympus XA (quality compact with 2.8/35mm prime) and an Olympus OM-2 system. When you have...

Yes, when weather improves I'm going to experiment a bit more with that (again). I just realised that my 25mm extension ring is a pretty good match for the 4/300 for this type of shot, plus I could...

exactly, there is lots of misinformation and bias in this thread. Too bad. To me the LF1 is an S110 with an EVF. If the image quality is at least as good as the S110 I'm very much interested. My...

again, you clearly don't know what you are talking about and apparently feel the need to defend your superior LX7. I have used a Canon S110 and my GF uses the S100. There is NO PROBLEM taking great...
