I've owned the LX3 for about a year now, but I'm still finding features to appreciate. For example, setting the lens to macro and using video lets me shoot a world in miniature.

These red crystal shrimp are half an inch (1.27cm) long, and in macro HD you can see them clearly. The white spots that zip around are water fleas and other tiny bugs the shrimp call their tankmates.

In terms of quality, the main drawback the LX3 seems to have with video is the "jello image" distortion when filming at the wide end of the lens. Those who take camera phone videos will be accustomed to these kinds of limitations, but you expect a little more from a camera with a Leica lens.

Pumpkin pie, sliced for dinner.

Nothing special back home, but this was the first time I've had pumpkin pie in 5.75 years in China.
