Leica

Perhaps inevitably the big draw on the Leica booth is still the M8, but there is some PMA news, with the launch of the new slimmer, higher resolution C-LUX 2, a very compact 7MP camera with 28-100mm equiv. lens, 2.5-inch screen and Panasonic's Venus III processor (the C-LUX 2 is essentially the same as the Panasonic FX30, announced in January). Also on show for the first time are some very nice leather accessories for the company's compact camera range.
