Leica
today announced the Digilux 2, a five megapixel compact digital camera
with a 3.2x optical zoom lens. Leica are promoting this camera as the
"analog" digital camera, in essence this is driven by the camera's
design and control layout which is almost identical to a standard manual
film camera (such as aperture ring, shutter speed dial etc.) The lens
is also pretty special, a 28 - 90 mm equiv. with a maximum aperture of
F2.0 at wide angle and F2.4 at telephoto. The Digilux 2 has a magnesium
body, a trans-reflective 2.5" LCD monitor, Electronic viewfinder,
stores images on SD card and is powered by a 1400 mAh Lithium-Ion battery.
