Here are four photographs from today, again after sunset, when the natural and artificial lights combine with interesting effects. I have been thinking about the Olympus XZ-1, or rather comparing the Panasonic LX3 with the apparent specs of the XZ-1.

It may be that we have in the XZ-1 a winning combination, but so much depends on how the camera works in practice. Is it such a tool which you can forget and just take photographs? Or does it have little nuisances which pose a serious hindrance to creativity.

It is indeed hard to say what to improve in the LX3. But, maybe the XZ-1 has what it takes.
