Image: Leica I found it interesting to see Leica launch a new D-Lux camera last week, as I'd been thinking about a previous model (or, at least, about its Panasonic sister model) just recently.

An 'Auto' label turns green when the settings are just right, letting you know you're good to go. If the camera can't achieve a 180º shu ..read more
