Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 with Nikon Speedlight SB-600

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 sits comfortably in your hand ...


.. that is until you mount an external flash on the little guy! Here is our Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 with a Nikon Speedlight SB-600!


Pros and cons ... We found it to be rather unwieldly, more so then when the flash is mounted on the larger Canon G9! Also, we couldn't figure out how to "go" TTL (Through-the-lens), and changing the zoom on the LX3 did not change the zoom on the flash. Likewise, when we mounted the flash on the Canon G9, we faced the same problem. Alas!
