The Panasonic LX3 has been one of the most popular point and shoot cameras since it was introduced in 2008. Two years is an eternity in point & shoot camera world, but the Panasonic LX3 has remained one of the best-performing cameras around.
So, it certainly makes sense to hear about rumors of a replacement for the LX3. And signs point to a successor named the Panasonic LX5.
In the below camera registration screenshot uncovered by 4/3 Rumors, the LX5 model name is part of a list of selectable products available to choose for registration on the Panasonic UK website.
Additionally, Photo Rumors is reporting that Panasonic’s announcement of the LX5 is expected during July.
