I bought this used from Adorama and it arrived in perfect condition. I have already used it several times and find that it can either present a wider accurate view or have a more fisheye effect for items closer to the camera. The only downside I see for my Leica D-Lux 4 is that I can't put the camera in its leather case with this lens on.

Nice addition to the the LX3. Reasonably sharp. Minimal CA and easily fixable distortion.

Since I started using the lens it has rearly left my camera.

The WA adapter + LX3 is the smallest UWA outfit available, as AFAIK. It's quality is quite good. There is a little distortion, of note only for architectural photos, which can be corrected in software.

LX3 Expandability as a System Camera
Last but not least, superb expandability is the key for LX3 to be literally a "system camera". Mounting the (optional, not standardly included) Wide Conversion Lens DMW-LW46 brings the maximum wide angle for the LX3 all the way to an incredible 18mm.
Requires the use of the Panasonic DMW-LA4 Conversion Lens Adapter
