Hello, I have only tested the LX7 with a binocular in a photoshop and vignetting has occured.
If you are looking for a good panasonic LX, you can buy the LX3 on ebay.
This camera works fine without vignetting on my Zeiss 85 Scope with a 30x ocular.
If you are looking for a newer cam I think a Nikon V1 can be suitable.
I have bought a V1 with the 10-30 kit Zoom (ca. 329 €).
The main advantage for me is that you can take pictures with an IR remote.
On the LX3 you must select a 2 sec. timer (and you must set the timer new for every foto).

The ability to use the filter adapter tube is very important with the Lx3. Use the latest software up grade to prevent lens extension faults. Gene
