Panasonic DMC-LX1 Review at DCResource

November 4, 2005 | Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | Comment |

Panasonic DMC-LX1DCResource have reviewed the Panasonic DMC-LX1, an 8.4 megapixel digital camera with a 4x Leica optical zoom lens equivalent to 28-112mm, optical image stabilizer and a 2.5 inch LCD screen.

“The area in which the LX1 really disappoints is in terms of image quality. While photos are well-exposed with accurate color, good sharpness, and very low purple fringing levels, they are way too noisy, even at ISO 80. And forget about using the higher ISOs: photos taken at ISO 200 or 400 are practically useless. It seems to me that Panasonic put a few million too many pixels on the tiny 1/1.65” CCD sensor. If you’re doing prints at 8 x 10 inches or smaller, you’ll be pleased with the results if you keep the ISO sensitivity as low as possible. Any larger than that and the noise will be obvious.”
