Panasonic LX100 MK II

[Sootchucker]

Has anyone used the LX100 MK II and may have also had the MK I ?

I have the MK 1 version, and it's a super small package with a great 24-75 F1.7-2.8 equivalent lens, but the newer version sports approx 17mp (up from the MK 1's approx 12mp) and gains a touch screen. The IBIS in the MK1 was OK but not great, and showed it's age when combined with video.

I just wondering if this is a worthy upgrade or is there not much in it ?

Not much help as I’ve not had a Mk2, but for me 12mp is ample, and I hate touch screens. Nor do I shoot video. Told you it wouldn’t be much help!

I have the II but still prefer my Fuji X30, except for video. Have you read DPReview's review?

I have the MKII now. Picked one up at a great price
If you can get one at a good price its a worthy upgrade but I wouldn't pay the full £850 for it.
