Hi, I've just collected a LX7, does anyone have any questions that I can help with?

It's not exciting compared to the RX100 but there might be some LX3/5 users on here thinking about upgrading.
 
Right;

- I think the LX7 is a little lighter and smaller compared to the X10 (50g) It will not fit in a pocket (get S100 or RX100)

- However, you will definately notice the weight, its no Canon S100

- Ergomonics are excellent, I think only the Canon GX1, Nikon P7000/7700 and the X10 do better in the compact sector

- It had a metal case and feels robust as any compact

- Note, it has a manual lens cap (which might actually be good because they are much stronger when rolling around a handbag compared to automatic leaf ones)

- Very responsive, people on DPREVIEW have said its much quicker compared to the GX1, S100 and P7000

- With regard to IQ, how should I comment? Against the 550d it will be worse in all scenarios except macro.
