Description

From the Manufacturer Every picture taken with the Leica D-LUX 3 has a story to tell. The unique manual setting options give you the freedom to create images that express your own style. Use the high-quality Leica lens to take stunning shots from the wide-angle to the telephoto range. With O.I.S. optical stabilization technology and ultra fast processing, the Leica D-LUX 3 sets new standards in its class. Choose between three picture formats, achieve first- class image quality with the camera's 10 megapixel sensor and assess your shots on the wide-screen display. Small and elegant, the Leica D-LUX 3 is always ready to make your personal view of the world reality. Stylish design The design of the D-Lux 3 is totally in keeping with Leica tradition: pure, discreet, timeless--in a housing of high-quality aluminum. Always on the move The D-Lux 3 is so light, compact and unobtrusive that there's no reason why you should leave it at home. Small as it is, it's a great performer: three file formats--from simple JPEG to the RAW format rarely offered in this class of camera--ensure optimum image quality for further processing as well. The image stabilizer (O.I.S.) leads to sharply focused images even in situations where there's not really enough natural light. The camera is also perfect for digiscoping--taking photographs through a spotting scope--to capture the fascination of nature at close range. Plenty of scope for creativity The D-Lux 3 still gives the photographer the freedom to create his own view of the world without any automatic settings. The 16:9 picture format with the full resolution of over 10-megapixels produces fantastic images for frame-filling viewing on HDTV equipment. The brilliant 2.8-inch display also has an aspect ratio of 16:9. What's in the Box: Camera with lens cap and hand loop, 64 MB SD card, charger, Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery, A/V cable, USB cable, extensive software package (Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 (PC)/3.0 (Mac), Quicktime Movie Player).

  • Very nice, but not perfect.
I purchased a silver one a few weeks ago, and have taken it to a few trips and events and now have the following comments: 1) It is very small and light. This thing really is a point-and-shoot. The good news is that it's more portable than I expected, though one should not purchase this camera expecting it to feel hefty like an M3. 2) It's very pretty, and the fit and finish are of a high standard. 3) The lens is a thing of beauty to behold in all its multi-coated splendor (if you're into that sort of thing). The lens cap feels cheap. 4) Images taken in the near macro to about 30 ft. range are very sharp, clear, contrasty, and beautiful. They are so good, in fact, that you could easily convince someone that they were taken with a hefty SLR system camera rather than a pocket-sized one. 5) Long shots (landscapes, etc.), seem a little bit soft, and this disappointed me a bit, though when I compared it to my Nikon Coolpix S2, it was actually sharper. I will need to perform more tests at infinity focus. 6) The flash is not very powerful and does not have much "reach." This is problematic indoors if your subject is more than 8-10 feet away. 7) The display is gorgeous, and puts my other camera's display to shame. 8) The manual controls are good, and there really is an astonishing degree of manual control for a pocket-sized machine. 9) The lens is a bit soft when wide open, and while this could be nice for portraits and such, if you want to sharpen things up you can use aperture priority and a tripod, and then they're beautiful. 10) One of the strengths of this camera is its large glass and fairly fast lens (for this camera class), and its ability to capture really nice images indoors in available light, though you need a steady subject and either tripod or to rest it on a solid surface to get the most out of it. ... show more

  • Everything it's cracked up to be!
After taking a few trips overseas with my wonderfull Nikon D200 10.2 MP digital SLR, I beagan to feel the weight (and bulk), to say the least. Still, the capabilities I could enjoy with this cam and its 18-200mm zoon lens were just too good to give up in favor of a pocket-size. Nonetheless, I started researching like crazy and finally wound up somewhere between the Panasonic and this Leica, which is modelled on the Panasonic (yes, not the other way around). In the end, I couldn't resist the idea of owning a genuine German Leica for just under $600! After having it for a few weeks, I have some simply spectacular pics in the 16:9 format at the full 10 MP. It really helps to take some just awsome images (and I am not in the obnoxious habit of overusing the word "awsome", BTW). The camera's heft and feel is one of sheer quality, as is the look, and use of it is simple, fun, and gives an amateur like me both a killer backup cam to the D200 AND a stand-alone that I can take pretty much around the word knowing I will miss very little and carry even less. It has literally contributed to making me happy in a way that few possesions ever have. But then, that's because I love to take pictures so much. This baby is everything it's cracked up to be, and more! ... show more

  • Not a good cam at all.
Not as I expected for a name like Leica's. the cam is expensive for nothing important. When you use the video recording, you can not change the zoom at all. The only advantage I noticed in this cam is the ability to take wide pictures. But still, this is not worth 600$. Besides, the cam is big. Compared to Canon cams, half the price for almost all the capabilities. My advice: Do not buy, get a Canon for 200$. In that case if you want to get another cam after 2 years, you wont feel bad for the money you paid. ... show more

  • Get the Panasonic equivalent instead
The only thing that satisfies me on this purchase is the Leica dot... that I can say that Ive owned a Leica for once in my life. Otherwise, the picture quality is not worth the price (I bought mine Hong Kong two months ago for, equivalent to 780 USD). Try to tinker with white balance, try shade for example, and even with ample light, shots will exhibit noise and aberration. A simple sun reflecting on a calm beach, this camera will meter wrongly. Buy the Panasonic equivalent instead. It still has a 'Leica' label around the lens! Then spend the differemce on say the Olympus shockproof/waterproof for your snorkeling/scuba trips. I discovered just two weeks ago that Olympus has this model. I could have gone with this combination if I knew that Olympus has this early on. Ah that red dot is expensive. ... show more

  • An almost perfect point-and shoot camera
I bought the camera because of the many manual overrides/controls it offers; also because it is the only one in the 10MP-class featuring the RAW image format. The camera indeed performs as the manufacturer promises. With one exception: the RAW output is awkward and surprisingly noisy (not what I am used to with my Nikons). The RAW images the camera produces take up 20MB each (instead of ~10MB in the Nikons) and are in most cases not worth the amount of storage space they take up. The two JPEG options (especially the hi-res one) produce much better, less noisy results using 80% less memory and in 1/3 of the time to process. Overall: Yes, I love it. After 7 months (and about 1500 images) I have to say I still love it but the unusual noisiness (visibility of pixels) and the lack of sharpness in all image settings has started to annoy me. To produce a high quality image for a large print you need to work even the RAW image extensibly in Photoshop and Noise Ninja before it reaches the quality you get from 10 megapixel-SLRs. Because of that I purchased a Canon Powershot G9 - which looks less chic and weighs more - but delivers exactly what I was looking for. ... show more

Leica. The best. For professionals, a professional second backup camera. For the rest of us, this is as good as it gets. Optional picture formats, and a 2.7 inch viewing screen.
