Panasonic's LX100 is an ambitious little camera. It steps right over the 1" sensor compact class with a 16MP Four Thirds sensor (though only 12.7MP is truly available), a 24-75mm equiv. F1.7-2.8 lens and 4K video recording. It all added up to a very favorable score and a gold award when we reviewed the camera. Now, thanks to the folks at iFixit, we can take a look at what's inside the LX100 without ever picking up a screwdriver.
