Photo.net Reviews Leica Digilux 2

Leica Digilux 2Photo.net have just published a very detailed review of the 5 megapixel Leica Digilux 2.

“The ergonomics of the Digilux are superb. With its centered lens, it is easier to hold, and much easier to hold steady, than the ?L? shape used for most other top-end digicams, because the left palm has a corner to provide mutual support, instead of thin air.Since people vary, there is no perfect size and weight for a camera. The Digilux is heavier than a Leica rangefinder wearing a tiny 35mm Summicron, and lighter than the same Leica with a 35 Summilux ASPH. My shoulder loves it - my hands might wish for an ounce or two more heft at slow shutter speeds. The bulk is just inside the large end of my comfort zone - about the same as a small motor-incorporated film SLR (Nikon N/F80, Contax Aria).”
