The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX10 is an enthusiast-oriented pocket-sized compact that uses a 1”-type 20-Mpix MOS sensor behind a Leica-branded 24-72mm equivalent, high-speed f/1.4-2.8 stabilized zoom. The camera has a minimalist metal shell — perhaps too much so, as it lacks a built-in viewfinder — but there’s a wide range of control dials, including an aperture ring and touch screen interface (the latter a pull-out 180-degree tiltable display with a 1,040K-dot resolution). |

Announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas in January, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II is the successor to the original model of the same name introduced in October 2015. Although marketed as a premium model, the G9 X is in fact the entry-level variant in the company’s lineup of cameras using the 1-inch type CMOS sensor. While the G7 X, G5 X, and G3 X models also use the 1-inch type sensor, they are more expensive and they’re also larger: the G9 X is still the most pocket-friendly model available of its type. |
