Bought LX5 yesterday to upgrade from my Lumix Fx35.
Picture quality is awesome!!! (then again, I was using FX35 so what do I know about "quality", right?).
Only disappointment is that Panasonic don't make marine case so if i go scuba, i will still use my Fx35+marine case. Of course there are 3rd party marine case from 10-bar but it costs about USD$900+... much more ex then the camera
Now I wonder is there any nice looking case/pouch for it. Mine came with the hard case only. Missed the panasonic promotion that gives out the leather case, but anyway, the leather case is also bulky looking.
