THE DMC-LX7 is Panasonic's new premium digital compact camera from the world-renowned LX series which has been long acclaimed by the photography enthusiasts for its high picture quality and creative descriptiveness. The new DMC-LX7 is fully re-designed in the lens, the image sensor and the image processing engine, along with other improvements and upgrades. The newly developed LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMILUX lens features F1.4-F2.3 outstanding brightness at 24-90mm versatile zoom range (35mm camera equivalent). The LX7 with its Panasonic's Black Box Nano Surface Coating technology minimizes light reflection that causes ghost and flare, which help capture stunning, true-to-life images with outstanding resolution and detail. The Power O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) is improved in the correction accuracy. The newly developed 10.1-megapixel high sensitivity MOS Sensor achieves the expansion of dynamic range by increasing the sensitivity and the saturation. In synergy with the performance of F1.4 bright lens, the DMC-LX7 assures astonishingly high picture quality even in low light situations and the Light Speed AF catches the most fleeting shooting opportunities. The external design is also improved to achieve even higher operability and to control the rich light source that DMC-LX7 can gain. – SG
