No AF lags etc,. not "faster" in the sense of light gathering capabilities.

> Does sensor size has anything to do with it?
Well if your saying your Panasonic is faster than a Leica x1 and wondering
why bring up sensor size well the sensor size is many times different in
size not just 2 or three.
So you can say a Leica is several times "faster" than a Speed Graphic 4x5
but In many ways its beside the point. As the formats are leagues away no
ones all that worried about it.
Sure you have to cock the shutter every time you shoot a sheet of film but
in the context of the quality your getting you just don't care its well
worth it.
An X1 you can set on 3200 maybe even use it at it.
A point and shoot of the normal vein like your Panasonic you're not going
above 400 if that.
