Panasonic DMC-L1 Review at Luminous Landscape

Mark Goldstein | Digital SLR Cameras | August 17, 2006 | 0 Comments

Panasonic DMC-L1Luminous Landscape have published their review of the new Panasonic DMC-L1 DSLR camera.

“Picking up any new camera for the first time is a bit like being introduced to a new girl. There is a flush of excitement that colours any initially obvious flaws. And if the new girl happens to resemble Mom, or maybe on a bit less Freudian level, a previous amour, then so much the better. The Panasonic L1 appealed to me initially in just that way, and clearly that’s Panasonic’s intention. With its traditional (some would call them retro) exposure controls and manual focus capability, this is clearly a camera designed to appeal to the traditionalist. Add to this the very obvious homage paid to the style of the M series Leica (right down to an autofocus assist window designed to look like an RF window) and you have a camera that any long-time photographer over the age of 30 will drool over.”
