Jan 16, 2007 I currently own the Panasonic LX-2 and LOVE it. I just ordered the Leica LUX3 and hope I'm not blowing an extra $200. for nothing more than snob appeal. What do you think?

Amazing camera.Strengths: Saves files in raw format. Has manual focus. 16:9 aspect ratio. Weakness: none. I decided on the d-lux 3 over the c-lux because of the fact that this camera saves in raw format, has manual focus, greater manual control over images, has a fast switch 16:9, 4:3, and 3:2. Also supports the new sd 2.0 standard... so get your high capacity cards on!! 86% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Leica D-LUX 3Strengths: Manual Operation Weakness: 19mb RAW + 2mb JPEG capture requires a fast SD card I was looking for a compact camera to carry around that had the flexibility of manual operation. I did not like carrying around my DSLR. So far this Leica offers what I was looking for. I actually don't plan on using my DSLR anymore now that I have this. The picture quality is good, I shoot in RAW. One issue is that you will need a fast SD card if you plan on shooting in RAW. The camera captures in RAW+JPEG when you set it to RAW, which is rather bothersome since that takes up more space on your card and you have to go in a delete every JPEG image when you go into the digital darkroom. I would recommend staying away from SDHC because they are just too slow. Stick with 133x or 150x SD cards and just carrying a couple around with you because you need the extra speed. 100% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Nice job, Leica
Strengths: Great pictures, sharp images, beautiful colors, numerous settings. Manual controls. Looks nice too.
Weakness: All that won't come cheap. The lens does not fully retract so this camera won't fit every pocket. The lens cap feels kinda cheap.
I love my new D-Lux3. This camera is amazing. I love having control of the exposures. It's simple to adjust f-stops, bracket, or choose any one of the several pre-programmed settings. Or pop over to manual. Video is nice too. Just know that you cannot zoom during a video shot.
