wda Posted December 1, 2021 Share #2 Posted December 1, 2021 I am still enjoying my D Lux T.109. I am not losing sleep over a successor. Existing models are excellent. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish. 🤣🤣🤣 1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laddie Crisp Posted January 11, 2023 Share #5 Posted January 11, 2023 Seriously I was hoping for a 22MP, 24-105 (35mm equivalent) f/1.7-2.8 with weather protection! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adan Posted January 12, 2023 Share #6 Posted January 12, 2023 Panasonic has ceased developing new compact small-sensor P&S cameras. As per announcement August 2022. https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/news/is-this-the-end-of-compact-cameras-nikon-and-panasonic-stop-development Since the D-Lux is just a Panasonic camera with the Leica name on it, there will be no new versions. Kaput. The smartphones won. BTW, my first digital camera was the Digilux 2, so I respect the Leica/Panasonic alliance, and the helping hand Panasonic provided as Leica got its own digital products up and running. But after 19 years, history moved on..... 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Einst_Stein Posted February 14, 2024 Share #8 Posted February 14, 2024 (edited) If any, the d-lux 7 follower is more likely a 1” camera. Don’t forget the older Dlux is small sensor, so it is not necessary M43. Maybe Dlux will have faster (fixed f1.7?) but smaller zoom range lens, Clux have slower super zoom, while Vlux fast (fixed f1.4?) and super zoom. Size-wise, Clux can fit in the pocket, Dlux fits in the purse, while Vlux is a jumbo. I hope they all use the same sensor. Along this though, the next Dlux could be an upgrade of the current LX10, not clear in which way, may be improved lens ( beyond the aperture and focal length) , may be use Titanium case ( like Apple new IPhone?), maybe weather seal, dual SD slots? … Alomg the same thought, what really need serious upgrade also include the Vlux. Upgrading F2.8 in the current Vlux to something like f1.7?, add weather seal (Like FZ300)? Also dual SD slots?
