Panasonic LX3 Firmware Update

A new firmware update (v2.0) for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 is interesting for the improvements it brings to the popular digital camera. Where some manufacturers would feature these improvements in an upgrade version of the model, Panasonic has chosen to upgrade the LX3 itself. The improvements include the addition of WB Bracketing, Exposure Compensation and AEB are now from +/- 3EV, and highlights can now also be displayed in Playback. The press release also makes mention of a 20% AF speed increase though this does not seem to be corroborated in the accompanying PDF document detailing the improvements.
