Leica Digilux 3

Twinned with the Panasonic L1, but with that famed red Leica badge, can the Digilux win hearts?

It may be almost identical to the Panasonic L1, at a much higher price, but it is still a unique package with excellent results

OK

The price tag is intended to make this camera desirable. It is a classic example of the fool and his money. Why not go for a bigger laugh and go all out on a Digital M. I will never buy Leica again but had no trouble find a fool to sell it to.
