bill Posted January 21, 2008 Share #3 Posted January 21, 2008 There is nothing interesting about it without a viewfinder. Regards, Bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemalk Posted January 22, 2008 Share #5 Posted January 22, 2008 I guess, using Bill's criteria, a D-Lux isn't interesting either. Or most point & shoots. I think it's strange that there's a low-end cutoff for the Leica-branded lenses - I mean, what the heck is a Lumix Vario? It's also weird that this peeks out weeks before PMA '08.

wilfredo Posted January 23, 2008 Share #8 Posted January 23, 2008 No Leica lens (not even a make-believe Leica lens)? What's the incentive for purchase? Wilfredo Benitez-Rivera Photography Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted January 23, 2008 Share #9 Posted January 23, 2008 Bill: Sorry to bother you with this. Nick Nick, No need to get huffy. I'm not bothered, (or bewitched), just bewildered. I don't see the attraction in this camera at all. And before you ask, I have an FX01, and a Canon G7. The G7 is far bulkier, but gets far more use because it has a viewfinder. The FX01 is a handy little machine, but 95% of the time I just use it as a "lightmeter" for my unmetered cameras. I wish that Leica and Panasonic would get back to producing P&S cameras with viewfinders as Canon and Nikon do. Regards, Bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earleygallery Posted January 23, 2008 Share #10 Posted January 23, 2008 It's your very average digicam. Yes it'll take a picture but interesting? No. Will anyone here be tempted by it? Why? It'd be like posting a link to the new Nissan Micra on a Porsche drivers forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted January 24, 2008 Share #11 Posted January 24, 2008 Once Leica release the black one with the red dot passion will rekindle praise. If leica doesnt this will just remain a trashy little point and shoot that will never see the inside of a Luigi leather case and a hardley pro whatever it is called.

earleygallery Posted January 24, 2008 Share #12 Posted January 24, 2008 It won't have a Leica makeover, its one of the 'lesser' panasonics, identified as so due to the Lumix lens. Would a rose by any other name smell so sweet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
