No timelapse ????
yeah how hard can it be to add timelapse! it would be so useful to have it this summer!
I would think the battery drain would defeat this.Is there not a multi exposure setting?
I would have loved to see auto bracketing with a wider exposure range
Wider autobracketing would be really nice..
I have a question, on the Engadget i read that the new Panasonic firmware locks out generic batteries.. is this true for this update?

Does anybody have a generic battery and applied this update? I really want to know I didn't buy a spare in vain.. Or doesn't anybody more read this article?
i have just upgraded my LX3's software to the 1.3 version.
my third-party batteries ("CTA for Panasonic", of which i have two and they helped on couple trips and i couldnt tell difference from the original battery) work fine (after LX3 does not use DMW-xxx). but i'll be cautious now with the new software releases :-/
Oh thank you avesome for quality feedback. Now I'll try it too :)
