After selling my LX3 last year, I am now considering another high end compact to compliment my main camera, so am interested in this thread..
Had my first look at the X10 at lunchtime, and it seems very nice - that said, it seems that when the lens was set to 28mm, the end of the lens is visible through the optical viewfinder - is that correct ? I imagine that may be slightly annoying, or do you get used to it ?
Also seems that Panasonic may be announcing the LX7 tomorrow for a September release - specs seem good if true - a larger 1 inch sensor and a 1.4 lens. Sounds nice..
I need to consider what I want a compact for - previously, I sometimes used my LX3 for long exposures with filters attached, but now think that if I am going to take the tripod\filters etc, I might as well take my DSLR as well, so probably really looking for something smaller to carry at all times..
