Fifteen Days with LX3

All of the images in this gallery were taken during the first 15 days I owned a Panasonic LX3 camera. This is an unusual point-and-shoot model with a narrow "zoom range" (only 2.5x) but a fast, wide, and close focusing lens. It has plenty of manual control and all the features I normally use are reachable without entering menus.
