    So all the lx-7 user will have to buy the new lx-9 if they want the camera combo or there will be like a kit sold that will convert the lx-7 to lx-9ish

    The Lx-7 is upgradable to LX-9 specs. Current owners will need to send their unit to MarCum to upgrade the hardware and a camera head will need to be purchased, obviously, as part of the upgrade.

    Only you if want to do the upgrade. I wouldn’t think anyone would expect to get camera capabilities without paying for a camera.

    James,

    Any word on when the LX-7 upgrade will be available and what the cost will be for this upgrade?

    Thanks!

    Nothing hard and fast has been released yet so this is pure speculation but I’d start by subtracting the cost of a new 7 from a new 9 and consider the difference the “ballpark” cost of the upgrade.

    I’ve been told late October. When I see something official I’ll be sure to post it up here and let everyone know.

    anyone know how much weight the upgrade will add to the lx7? I was planning to upgrade cameras this year, this just might be the ticket!
