Panasonic’s LX series is one of the longest-running, and best-loved lines of enthusiast compacts. Indeed in 2007 the LX3 rescued the sector from a slump induced by the appearance of affordable DSLRs, and with its small size and unusually fast zoom lens established a template that successive models have followed.
