I know a professional nature photographer who swears by Lumix for stills.  Thanks for reminding me to get one.

The best photographer I know was talking about the LX3 for a year before I got one. I've since updated to the LX 7 for most things -- still use the 3 for pictures like http://www.flickr.com/photos/22231918@N06/sets/72157633045688377/ which are best done with live feedback in burst mode.

Fits in your pocket -- optics as good as my D 90 lenses and take usable (by me, at least) video.

Yes, except AVCHD on the Sony at a maximum 28 mbits vs h264 at 72 mbits on the GH3 if video record quality is really important to you.

Hi,

I'm looking for a camera with as many as possible of the below features. Currently using a Lumix LX 7, which does surprisingly well for a $400 camera mainly designed for stills/

1.    Compact
2.    Tapeless
3.    1080 24p. 30 p. (60 i optional)
4.    Better (i.e. less)  compression than the 34:1 of my Lumix  LX - 7.
5.    Mac- compatible software.
6.    No 4 gig file limit.
7.    High speed shooting for slow mo.
8.    Good optics -- ideally comparable with Lumix
9.    Better zoom ratio than LX 7
10.    Ideally can shoot high quality 5 MP or better stills.
11.    Long shutter speed shooting for in camera blurs
12.    Good low light performance.

My Lumix LX 7 has all but 4, 5, 6, 7, 9

Thanks.
