Panasonic’s ongoing dedication to bringing innovative and reliable photographic solutions to a wide range of creators is once again on display with the introduction of two new additions to its highly regarded LUMIX lineup. The Micro Four Thirds LUMIX G97 and the travel-ready LUMIX ZS99 have been carefully designed to provide enthusiasts, photographers, and videographers with outstanding image quality, robust performance, and user-friendly features. Whether capturing sweeping landscapes, intimate portraits, or dynamic scenes on the move, both cameras incorporate the latest technologies and thoughtful conveniences that allow for an elevated creative experience.

When I first picked up the Leica M11-D, it felt like stepping back into the golden age of photography while still having one foot firmly planted in the modern era. The lack of a rear LCD screen instantly caught my attention—it’s almost daring in today’s world of instant previews. At first, I felt a little uneasy, like I was missing a vital tool, but as I started shooting, that nervousness melted away.

Leica’s journey into the world of compact full-frame cameras began with the revolutionary Leica Q in 2015. Eight years later, the third generation of this celebrated series continues to push boundaries, combining elegance, innovation, and functionality. The Leica Q3 has already garnered global admiration with its fixed 28mm lens. Now, Leica answers the call for versatility by introducing the Leica Q3 43, equipped with a remarkable 43mm fixed focal length. This new variant not only pays homage to Leica’s legacy but offers a fresh perspective, capturing life as closely as the human eye perceives it.
