Why I fell in love with Panasonic Lumix Lx3

In terms of photography, I'm a newbie. However, I have this great deal of appreciation for nice photography shots. Nowadays, many people are so inclined with photography class which I'm planning myself to enroll some other days.

To start of, last December 2010 I got this gift box from my boyfriend. To cut long story short how I jumped in happiness when I finally seen my present. It was the Panasonic Lumix LX3, I've been yearning for!

The reason why I fell in love with DMC-Lx3 is because of this picture taken at Pasig river...

This picture was taken by Sherman Liberato whom I consider pro in the field of photography. He was explaining about camera settings, long exposure to achieve scenic picture like this.

DMC LX3 is under the digital still cameras an alternative for DSLR photography  enthusiast. The one thing I love about Lx3 is the ease of use. You don't have to be pro to achieve the shot you want. Apart from being handy compared to bulky and heavy DSLRS, LX3 is very versatile in terms of functions. The program dial gives you different options plus built-in scene modes such as food, sports, portrait, landscape etc. tec.

Here's a sample of a food mode which I have taken few months ago...
