(Unfortunately, it does still penalize the photographer if you press the shutter button before it's ready to capture another frame in single-shot mode.) And it also matched or outperformed the earlier model for single-shot and burst-capture performance, as well as recharging its bundled flash strobe more quickly. But once it's ready to shoot, the LX100 II's autofocus system performs noticeably more quickly than did its already-swift predecessor at all focal lengths we tested. The Panasonic LX100 II does, admittedly, take a little longer to start up than did its predecessor, which was already somewhat sluggish in this area. Performance is ample in most respects, as well. Nearer to base sensitivity, though, the in-camera JPEG engine is more resistant to moiré than is Adobe Camera Raw, so you may want to stick to JPEGs here.

And if you're a raw shooter, even better results at higher sensitivities can be attained with a little work in the digital darkroom. Although the 17.0-megapixel LX100 II crams a lot more pixels onto its sensor than did the earlier 12.8-megapixel LX100, it nevertheless bests its predecessor even once you dial up the sensitivity to shoot in low-light conditions.

That improvement isn't restricted just to shots captured at or near its ISO 200 base sensitivity, either. But on the inside, the new 17.0-megapixel, Four Thirds image sensor and Venus Engine image processor work together to provide a significant step forwards from its predecessor's already-good image quality. Its lens and viewfinder are unchanged, and the biggest visual cue to indicate that this is a new model is the reprofiled handgrip on the front deck. In many respects, the LX100 II is a fairly modest update, and indeed at first glance it's quite similar to its predecessor on the outside.

The Panasonic LX100 II hones the design still further with an overhauled imaging pipeline, a touch-screen, Bluetooth connectivity, in-camera charging support and more, while retaining much the same body design as before. In 2014, Panasonic stepped into the large-sensor, compact camera marketplace with the LX100, a Dave's Pick-winning camera which we lauded for its image quality, performance and ergonomics, even if it wasn't quite as compact as some of its nearest rivals.
