Re: Any user reviews of the WB750?
Christian, you asked: what are your cams?
Currently, a small 5 year old Canon TX1, which has the 39-390 mm lens, with super-macro focus right up to the lens,

and a swivel screen, for which I have modified an old slide viewer to overcome problems of LCD visibility in strong sunlight, and convert the LCD to a virtual EVF.

That lets me hold it to my eye and steady my hand against my head when using extreme zoom settings. I find it convenient for homing in on distant items.

The swivel screen also helps aim over the heads of crowds or at ground level.
The TX1 is also convenient for video (VGA and 720p), and with motion JPEG is useful for extracting frames to capture fast-moving subjects.

The other camera is the nearly 4 year old Panasonic LX3, convenient for 24-60 mm mm wide angle F 2.0 lens with RAW and a heap of useful modes, such as the High Dynamic setting, which, though not a proper HDR, does help to reduce highlights and increase shadow detail.


Variable format settings (1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9), also help composition and reduce the need for cropping, and make it a convenient portable copier for archival research. With Panasonic’s 18mm accessory lens is useful for architecture

and landscapes,

and as it retains the F 2.0 speed which makes it very useful for dim interiors without flash.

and twilight scenes

Its replacement, the current LX5 model, has a number of improvements, including an (expensive) optional EVF, and a longer 24-90mm lens, which means that its 18mm accessory lens has to be larger than the LX3’s.
When travelling, I find that with the TX1 in a belt pouch, and the LX3 (with or without the 18mm accessory lens mounted) in a shoulder bag, I can quickly grab or replace either as circumstances require.
They still meet my needs, so I am not in a rush to replace them. Although there are several other small cameras with long zooms, none have the convenience of the swivel screen.
