Adorama DMC-LX10 First Impressions

"Love this little Adorama DMC-LX10!"

I feel that it takes better pictures than the DSC-HX50. I bought this Adorama Digital Camera for a trip I'm taking abroad in February. Personally, I preferred it to have a wider lens, say 28mm equivalent. This camera also has the best in camera JPEG processing I've ever seen. My old SX700 that was serviceable for years finally gave up and failed.

Adorama DMC-LX10 Final Thoughts

"Um wow, totally wrong."

Maybe it is for a small POS. Ergonomics count, especially when you get used to Adorama's excellent system--wow! Ergonomics count, especially when you get used to Adorama's excellent system--wow! That is the reason I bought this Adorama DMC-LX10. So I went to a camera store and tried out both of them.

The battery that does come with the camera lasts a long time. I have always gotten great results with my Nikon D5600. It has a great feel, not too heavy but still substantial. All other cameras in this category are much more expensive. This, in my opinion is a great camera to start learning on.
