Hello,

 

I am considering to get a DSLR with a good lens, but I am not sure how much difference in picture quality @ISO 100 between D-Lux 3 and DSLR? Please provide your suggestion and give me some idea about this. Thanks.

 

 

 

Below pictures were taken by D-Lux 3.

It's not just the DSLR, but the lenses you use with it that will make the difference. A lot of DSLRs will "generally" have less noise. I have both the D-Lux3 and a DSLR (as well as the M8) but don't hestitate to use the D-Lux3 if that is the most convenient.

 

Now, the real question comes - how much difference will you be able to "see" on the media you normally show your shots on (Prints / Projection / Screen / Web)..... The D-Lux 3 makes some pretty nice prints. The noise that is present in the examples above would not normally be there on a 'good' DSLR with a 'good' lens. However, the ones you have already can be made nicer with just a little bit of love in photoshop. By using the blur tool you can eliminate most of the noise while enhancing the bokeh at the same time :)

 

Like this (hopefully you don't mind) - Original top right corner and then with the blur...

Of course you can't do this with every single image :)
