Photokina rumors: Panasonic LX100 has impressive 24-75mm lens. New Fuji X100T images.

The LX100 will look very close to the “old” LC1 you see here on top.

Panasonic is going to launch a little fixed lens compact camera on September 15! The new LX100 is said to have a large Four Thirds sensor with a bright and very useful 24-75mm f/1.7-2.8 lens! The camera is very compact and can record 4K video too! Still, we don’t know what the price will be…

And here are two more images of the other fixed lens compact from Fuji (via Digicameinfo). The Fuji X100t will be announced tomorrow (Sept 10):
