I'm new to the forum and hoping to get a little feedback. I recently purchased a V-Lux 1 and I enjoy its options and intend to keep it. However, I'd still like a smaller camera, easy to handle for street photography and candids, like the traditional Rangefinders.

I'd been looking at the new D-Lux 3, however I noticed the Digilux 1 is available for nearly the same price or less, plus it includes manual focus features.

I know the Digilux 1 is only 4 megapixels, but I don't intend to make large prints. So, would any of you suggest the older Digilux over a new D-Lux? Advantages/Disadvantages?

Thanks for your advice!
