Jon Schick Posted December 1, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 1, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) It's been an enjoyable experience so far, and an easy transition given I also own the Lumix GX-7 so a lot of the menus etc work in the way I'm used to. I wouldn't take the images in this thread as any kind of comment on the capabilities of the camera - I used JPEG (even though I anticipate mainly using it in raw only) just to see whether they were as bad as everyone says, and then post-processed them to death in OnOne Perfect Suite. I suppose one positive is that there is a lot of information there (even in the JPEGs) to allow you to post-process to death! The light has mostly been flat and uninspiring over the last couple of days, but I hope to put the camera to proper use over the coming weeks. In the meantime the first impressions are very good. I'm looking forward to using the D Lux more (so far my impression is that it will do exactly what I bought it for, which is to replace both a decent compact [Fuji X20], ageing Lumix GF-1, and the Lumix GM-1 which was very good but too fiddly for my tastes). Best wishes, Jon 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leica dream Posted December 4, 2014 Share #7 Posted December 4, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Jon These are indeed lovely shots - so lovely in fact that I have decided to explore the possibility of trading in my V-LUX1 for a D-LUX. The V-Lux takes cracking shots but for my current needs it is rather bulky, but knowing that quality I shall consider alternatives very carefully. Initial research does indicate that the D-Lux seems to be a good contender, so long as I can get one with the built in EVF. Richard Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
