I am considering buying the relatively new Lumix LX-3 camera, and advanced point-and-shoot camera. What's novel about this camera is that the maximum focal length is 60mm. The camera offers great wide angle shots. The reviews I have read praise the camera for its quality and features.
My question is: How will the 60mm focal length limit me? I am a beginner.
I have heard, for example, that for portraits, the "sweet spot" is somewhere arounf 85mm to 105mm. Will the Lumix limitation get in the way of my taking portrait shots? What other issues might be a problem?
Here's a link to a review:

Should I avoid this camera because of the 60mm limit? Any comments or suggestions appreciated!
