Welcome to the 530th Digital Photography Review newsletter. We're crazy busy here in DPReview's Seattle offices, preparing for a 2-day live broadcast event which we're hosting at the end of this week. We'll be taking over the studios again at CreativeLIVE covering various topics including roundups of the latest gear, a look back at Photokina, and a glimpse into the future for consumer digital imaging. It should be a lot of fun, but I have a ton of work to do over the next 48 hours, so I'm keeping this newsletter brief! OK, phew - here are some content highlights from the past few days... Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 real-world samplesThe Panasonic Lumix LX100 topped our reader poll as the most interesting product to come out of Photokina 2014. Indeed, the LX100's combination of a Four Thirds sensor and 24-75mm equivalent F1.7-2.8 lens is big news. We've been testing out this intrepid compact for the past few days; take a look at a gallery of real-world samples and see what it can do.
