About this product

Product Information

You can’t rely on your phone for taking great pictures, but you can use compact cameras that are designed to deliver impressive shots every time. The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX5 digital camera stands out from the pack with a range of manual controls that give the power back to you. However, the DMC-LX5 also comes with automatic settings for those times when you just want to point and click without choosing a different mode. The ideal camera for beginners and experienced photographers alike, the LX5 is a great value that you should add to your buying list. The Panasonic Lumix features a digital zoom that lets you frame your subject perfectly and capture high-definition video clips. It has a 3.8x, 24-90mm zoom lens that allows you to get closer to the action without losing the excellent resolution. The rotary control helps you enlarge images with greater precision, and you’ll see the difference when you look at the results on your memory card or through the lens. Set the mode between the optical or digital viewfinder based on your own experience, skills, and shooting conditions. This black Panasonic camera comes with a wide-angle lens that’s ideal for taking action shots, and the image stabilization features mean that everything will come out clear and crisp. An OIS anti-shake system allows you to get clean pictures even when your own hands aren’t too steady or when you’re moving around. You can choose between manual focus on the sensor or take advantage of the highly intelligent ISO settings available on the LX3. One of the smaller digital cameras on the market, the Panasonic will easily fit in the palm of your hand. However, you won’t surrender any quality by going with a smaller package. The intelligent shooting options available on this camera are excellent at determining the right settings and taking the guesswork out of getting great shots. Change the mode in this Lumix camera so that you can handle all types of difficult situations, including motion shots and low-light situations. This type of camera is made with the enthusiastic photographer in mind, so the Panasonic includes an accessories port for the optional live viewfinder. It’s easy to see the screen thanks to the larger, three-inch size, and your images will show through clearly with 460k dot resolution. You can send both raw and JPEG files to the SD memory card, and the camera is able to capture pictures at an impressive shutter speed. You won’t have to search for the right button because this intuitive design puts everything in a very natural spot that works for most photographers. It’s comparable to a high-end, mirrorless system, and you will surely be pleased with the results. Pick up different accessories for the LX5, including protectors for the LCD screen. You'll be impressed with the audio on the compact LX5, so it's a great choice for taking videos. When shopping for cameras, check the LX5 to see how it can deliver impressive photos. When you want superior image quality on everything from a motion JPEG to a simple photograph, choose the Panasonic LX5. A compact camera that's made for avid photographers, this camera comes complete with the lenses, zoom, and flash options you need to get started with your special photo collection.

  • Great quality images for a point and shoot

    I love the LX5. It takes great quality photos and is very easy to use. It's a point and shoot, but the photo quality is excellent and the manual setting options are extensive. If you know what you're doing you can take nice nighttime shots. Most of the time the "intelligent auto" setting really is intelligent and takes an excellent photo on the fly without tooling around with manual changes. A lens cap is an essential add to have with this camera. Without it, the lens will get scratched up pretty quick. I have had 3 of these cameras. Partially, I can be rough on gear (they have all met sandy and/or watery deaths). And partially I feel like this camera isn't as durable, considering its heft. The lens starts to get stick as it extends/retracts with even the thought of a little dirt or sand breathing its way near the lens. And humid/rainy conditions also quickly fog up the lens. I also wish it had a panorama setting. It does have panorama assist, but who really wants to try to line up and stitch together fake panoramas? It's a great camera if you can get it used.

  • Great little camera

    Am moving from a heavy Canon 40D to lighter weight equipment. Am doing an advanced compact and superzoom bridge. This little LX5 is a dream to use, and carry around. More than enough buttons and dials to keep me happy and picture quality is very impressive. Because of the size I'm skipping it in my jacket pocket and taking it almost everywhere I go. Now just have to hope the superzoom bridge will fill the telephoto needs as well. Waiting for it to arrive. So impressed with Panasonic the the bridge superzoom ordered is also Panasonic FZ1000.

  • Incredible Camera and Value

    Recently, I was reviewing my photos from years ago and discovered that some of my best photos were taken with a Lumix LX5 that I owned in 2011. I have owned at least a half dozen digital cameras since then, all of which were more expensive than the LX5. Consequently, I purchased another LX5 on eBay. The price was under $200 for a near mint camera. The LX5 can compete with more recent cameras that cost times as much.

  • Best small camera

    I wanted a small camera that I could shoot both JPEG and RAW on, and this camera does that. It also has a Leica lens and as much shooting flexibility as a photographer could want. I'm thrilled that these cameras are available these days at such a reasonable price. Great bargain!

  • Fun little camera!

    Picked this up just to have an everyday camera for walking the dog or going out with friends. It really holds up despite being over 10 years old. Kudos to the previous owner for taking care of it.
