  1. Hey Andrew, Now that you have showed us that the LX100 is a small video shooting beast, could you write a quick review of your LX100 shooting process and setup? I own one and use it to shoot classical music concerts. (here is an exemample of teaser I made) As you can see i strugled to get descent colors so i went for the BW in post. But picture quality is amazing, I manage to get descent image event zoomed at almost 300% in post. (for 720p output) My shooting settings are those: Contrast: -5 Noise Reduction: -4 Saturation: -4 Sharpening: 0 Shadows: +5 Hilights: -5 The I play with color correction in FCPX but couldn't find some descend color balancing. The other problem i have is that i own a Fuji XT1 that i use as a B Cam to shoot some details ot large Shot but the video picture quality is over contrasted and unsharp ( surprising for a sensor that delivers so sharp images in stills) and I strugle to get the 2 cameras image profile close to each other in post.
  2. Concerning the battery door, isn't there a way to unmount it properly? even if it's not supposed to there's always a way... when it's on a rig the battery and SD are not going to go anywhere anyway, and you can still put a piece of gaffer tape if you're not confident... i'm planning on using this camera mainly for baroque music concerts. Since i already have a FUji X-T1 for amazing stills, i'm not willing to invest in a A7S rig (yet) so the LX100 is the perfect camera for me... amazing 4K and good enough lowlight perf. the 15min limitation seems okay since very few pieces of music last this long and i can trigger it from a smartphone. But changing the battery 1 or 2 times in the concert is a bit harder to deal with...
  3. When you look at the DPreview studio test at corners it's as sharp or sharper than FZ1000, CANON GX7 or SONY RX100 III http://***URL removed***/reviews/image-comparison/fullscreen?attr18=daylight&attr13_0=panasonic_dmclx100&attr13_1=panasonic_dmcfz1000&attr13_2=canon_g7x&attr13_3=panasonic_dmcgh4&attr15_0=raw&attr15_1=raw&attr15_2=raw&attr15_3=raw&attr16_0=200&attr16_1=200&attr16_2=200&attr16_3=200&normalization=full&widget=156&x=-1.002604166666667&y=-1.1231603408210689 By the way, how much the 4K videos recorded handles croping in postprod? If you crop the 4K video to a 1080p size for exemple? do you get a sharp enough 1080p image?
  4. Really great clip for great music here congrats! I was wondering what is the use of that HDMI port. Is it just for playing back your recorded videos and pics on TV or is it a video output (like on the RX100 III) so you can plug an Atmos recorder like the Ninja Star or Shogun for 4k and get good Prores files. Plus canceling the time limit... Thanks for the review it´s the best on the whole wide web. I think that this camera is also coming for the ass of the Fuji X100 series which is a little biger, better stills quality and colors, same dials way of shooting but over-crappy vide mode!!!
