Love At First Sight
If the truth be told I have no great love for DSLR cameras. They are big, clunky & vastly over rated for everyday non professional use. Plus a DSLR is too big to fit in my already over packed 5.16 pounds of purse.
Enter the latest from Panasonic, the LX3*

If it lives up to the press release it is very close to my dream camera come true. Small enough to fit in my purse, same features as a DSLR (less lens interchangeability), f2.0 lens, practical zoom range, hot shoe, macro down to 0.393700″ (1cm), I’m in love!
Minor problem: I don’t have the MSRP of $499.00 necessary to own one. I can however dream.

Don’t forget to reuse those bags whenever possible & buckle up those groceries, gotta keep them safe!
At today’s prices every dime you save is one more you can give to the oil companies.

Looks nice, can you sync a wireless flash?

I’d slip a sender on the hot shoe Sis, i’m sure it will x-sync anything.

Yea! So glad to find someone else who isn’t a fan of DSLR cameras! Thanks for commenting on my blog. I am excited to read more of yours. P.S. I buckle in my groceries sometimes, too. Otherwise, when I brake for bad drivers, my groceries go flying!

Good site on the Panasonic LX3 here. Looks like a great compact for those who want a bit more than a point and shoot. Black looks much nicer than the siver though…
And I still love a SLR!
