Leica C-Lux 1 Review

Popular Photography have reviewed the new Leica C-Lux 1, the ultra compact digital camera features a Leica wide angle 3.6x optical zoom lens with image stabilisation, a 2.5" screen and a 6 megapixel sensor:

"It's a little Leica! Leica, in partnership with Panasonic, has rolled out a new, $495 (list) ultra-compact digital camera. Featuring a 3.6X Leica DC Vario-Elmarit f/2/8-5.6/4.6-16.8 ASPH Triple zoom lens, a 2.5" TFT LCD, and a brushed silver chrome or black finish, the Leica C-Lux 1 should make Leica fans happy. The overall fit and finish of the camera are quite nice, the only exception being the battery/SD card cover, which lacks heft. The lines of the camera echoes classic Leica lines, albeit in a smaller, more modern iteration."
