Leica Digilux 2 - the bigger picture |
|
Many
of you asked for it and thanks to Leica UK for supplying very high resolution
images of the new five megapixel Digilux 2. This camera may well have
a Panasonic heart but it's instantly recognisable as a Leica and features
a very interesting F2.0 - F2.4 lens. The brand certainly carries a lot
of weight and this camera appears to be one of the more interesting new
releases of recent months.
