For those that don't watch the whole video, just watch 1:50 – 2:25 and you will see the "well used" condition
I bought a used LX100 and really enjoyed it. It has only been very recently replaced by an LX100M2 because someone made me an offer I could not refuse… Auto-focus performance is not a problem because the selection of MF gives the opportunity to focus on whichever part of the subject you wish. Combined with manual selection of the aperture, (from f1.7 to f16), the MF choice gives very good control over focus, composition and depth of field. The ease with which exposure can be modified to suit, for example, irregular lighting is another source of pleasure for this old photographer… I started at age 7, which is now an embarrassing number of years ago, (69), with my mother's replaced Brownie Box so doing for myself whatever the camera will not do for me is, at the very worst, interesting.
Was it a rational decision to go from am LX100 to an LX100M2? Of course not. Am I happy with the result? Yes. Case closed… I will only stop doing photography when it ceases to please me. Or "inevitably"… Hey ho!
Hello, I enjoyed watching your video!
I have a question, is there a specific reason you're still using the LX100 instead of upgrading to the LX100M2? I'm considering buying a second-hand camera, and I'm debating between these two models because of the price difference.
Cheapest on ebay as of 6/25/24 is $369 shipped. Way too much for this 12mp camera from yesteryear!!! I would have stuck with the Sony ZV-1.
200 dollars LOL – If you're buying it for parts only.
Useless video..waisted time.
Isnt the Lumix LX10/15 the way to go with F1.8 and a one inch sensor
The camera market specially point and shoot has shifted. They are like used car prices during pandemic. They are charging almost 3x the original price. Ridiculous!
200$ ?! Va falloir m'expliquer où 😂 je le trouve a 550$CAN d'occasion !
Bro it’s literally £700
is there a "$200 street videography camera is wild"?
I bought one of these for a trip to Egypt in 2016. Fantastic little camera that produced some great images.
Im currently using my Panasonic Lumix LX100 mark I and honestly the monochrome filter has been good in photo and on video. My last two youtube videos were shot with it.
Great video but i felt the need of morw photos in the video.
may i know ur opinion towards fujifilm x-a20 ?? i need some opinions for it. like is it worth it to buy ??

İ got lx100, gotta clean the dust from the sensor
The aspect ratio lever being so prominent is an integral part of this cameras unique design. The lens image circle never uses/covers the full 4/3rds sensor. So a 16:9 will use the full width, and 1×1 will use the full height. Ironically the 4:3 aspect ratio has the biggest crop, neither using the full width or height of the sensor. All because that tiny lens doesn't fully cover the 4:3 sensor size. The corners are clearly unusable as the camera never uses them 🙂
It's a nice camera!
where did you find this for $200?
Had quite a few Lumix cameras, currently G85 and GX85. All have been great for stills and videos with huge range of affordable lenses. Agree with you, great value
Panasonic Cameras Are A Complete Surprise. I'm on my third and will be keeping the TZ100 and the four-thirds GX9. The TZ100 I took to New York with that street cult camera the Ricoh GRlllx. On my return to the UK, I sold the GRlllx to invest in another Panasonic.
I could not believe the results I got with the TZ100 over the GRlllx. It delivered every time on and above the GRlllx. A camera twice the price of the TZ100.
Deemed as a travel camera but with a one-inch sensor the TZ100, with its 25 – 250mm zoom amd metering set to my fav mode, Spot, it dealt with the brilliant light and shadow cast by New York's skyscrapers. And with less exposure demanding shots.
So easy to carry and like you say, I looked like what I was, a tourist, albeit a street photographer one.
I'm so impressed with the TZ100, it is my carry-around camera and is in my coat pocket as I type this.
The GX9 is more range finder type and not only has interchangeable lens, Panasonic and Olympus fit, a tilting screen but a tilting viewfinder as well. Very Vivan Mailer which was – if I'm honest part of the attraction. I like wide-angle lens, the GX9 came with a 25mm – 50mm in four-third terms – so I also bought a Panasonic 14mm, giving 28mm.
The real lesson I have learnt is don't dismiss Panasonic cameras for street photography. The company doesn't push the street aspect of any of the cameras they produce….but they should.
Hace poco compre una, y tengo el problema de que no puedo usar el modo M y el modo A. Tengo que hacer algún ajuste?
