Finally my LX5 has arrived, I mainly got it because my trusty LX3 is beginning to die. That is the shutter button is dying, it's been through a lot with me in the past two or three years. I hope that the LX5 will do me good for the next few years!

The unpacking of the LX5

As you can see in the above pictures, I didn't exactly take care in taking the pictures as I really wanted to power on the camera to play with. I pretty much left everything in the box, the only things I took out to use is the charger, the camera itself (obviously) and the little cord for the lens cap. I've decided not to use the camera strap, instead I am going to use a small hand strap that is detachable. I'm going to need to get a 45mm male to 46mm female step up ring to use my barrel adapter and 18mm super wide angle lens on the LX5. Now to plan a holiday and wedding so I can take lots of pictures!

Oh here are some sample shots, I'm glad the dynamic b&w mode hasn't changed much its very very nice.

The LX5 isn't too different from the LX3, if it weren't for the fact that my old camera was dying I wouldn't have upgraded. It's still a powerful little point and shoot camera for hobbiests and power users.
