shinglj Posted December 30, 2011 Share #1  Posted December 30, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) In the last few days I pulled my 9 year old Digilux 1 off the "museum" shelf and revived it and then used it to take a few images .The results surprised me . You can see them on The Rolling Road  Food for thought shinglj Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Hi shinglj, Take a look here DIGILUX 1 REVIVED. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Anasebi Posted December 31, 2011 Share #2 Â Posted December 31, 2011 Very fascinating! I love it when people do this as it is amazing how quickly thing can fade away when the world moves fast. Specially so when truthfully for the most, the progress has not been so much. Great Camera and great pics. I am an unashamed pixel peeper, but I still adore looking at pictures taken during the first golden age of Digital photography, such as the Digilux 1 and 2, and even older such as the Minolta Dimage X and such.

lct Posted December 31, 2011 Share #3 Â Posted December 31, 2011 Great (not that) little cam indeed. I used it for my avatar 9 years ago and bought two samples of it that i'm still using for B&W and street. Makes my subjects smile really. Perhaps they take it for a pre-war camera i don't know. Taking four snaps in a second in total silence is also something that none of my Leica Ms is able to do so far. Great for catching those smiles instead of grimaces BTW. Was tempted by the Fuji X10 recently but i was put off by its blooming artefacts so i still carry those old babies everywhere i can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest happytogger Posted December 31, 2011 Share #4 Â Posted December 31, 2011 Im not sure how accurate this is, the 30-100mm f2-2.5 on the Digilux 1 was said to be a rebadged Canon lens from Canon G1/G2 34-102mm f2-2.5. The slight difference in focal lengths due to Digilux1 having a slightly larger sensor 1/1.76" compared to G1/G2 1/1.8". Â Still the output of the Digilux1 from its internal processing is real nice. Different from Canon G1/G2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkxmnr Posted December 31, 2011 Share #5 Â Posted December 31, 2011 I think it is a rebadged Panasonic LC5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted December 31, 2011 Share #6 Â Posted December 31, 2011 It is a rebadged, and bodied, LC5. Â The lenses were so similar to the contemporary Canon, that I'd be amazed if they weren't made on the same line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earleygallery Posted January 3, 2012 Share #7 Â Posted January 3, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I recall reading that the same lens was used on the Panasonic, Leica, Canon and one of the Olympus models of the time. Â It's not clear exactly who was responsible for the design/manufacture of it however! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted January 3, 2012 Share #8  Posted January 3, 2012 Was advertised by Casio as a Canon lens then. Steves Digicams - Casio QV-5700 - User Review Welcome, dear visitor!
