The expanded dynamic range is made possible by the improvement of on-tip-lens design with larger light concentration and VCCD expansion while deepening the photo diode to manage richer signal more effectively.Ģ4-90mm f/2.0-3.3 Ultra-Wide-angle Leica Lens
#LEICA D LUX ISO#
Also, the maximum setting is ISO 12800 enabling shooting in extremely dark places.
#LEICA D LUX MOVIE#
Taking advantage of the high sensitivity CCD and the brightness of the lens, minimum illumination is as low as 3 lux in movie recording. The CCD produces high resolution, noise-less images even in high sensitivity recording and richly reproduced gradation in highly contrasted situations with the exquisitely wide dynamic range. Large 1/1.63″ 10.1-Megapixel High Sensitivity CCD The feature list below was taken from the features of the Panasonic LX-5 but again, these are the same cameras, so the features are the same.

#LEICA D LUX PRO#
Just choose based on your budget and desires ? The LX-5 is selling like hotcakes and I expect the D-Lux 5 to also sell VERY well.īrandon with the D-Lux 5 – f/2.5 – 47mm – converted to B&W with Silver Efex Pro – Click image for larger version. But whichever you choose, you will get the same terrific image quality. So to those who will come here and comment and bash the D-Lux 5 because it is $300 more, know that you do indeed get MORE with the camera as well as the joy of owning a Leica ? I think the Panasonic looks great as well and the grip may be a benefit when holding the camera. I am hearing Lightroom will be included, which is a GOOD thing. The Leica D-Lux 5 will give you different firmware, different body style and looks, a 3 year warranty, and better software. You will get a one year warranty, you will get a different body style (with grip) and you will get lower end software. I will say right now that if you want to save $300 and you want the same camera then you can easily buy the Panasonic LX5 RIGHT NOW for $499. Why? Because there are many out there who bash Leica for “rebranding” Panasonic cameras with their body shell and logo and selling it at a $300 premium. Many of you reading this will trash me and this review if I say ANYTHING positive about this camera. So sit back, relax and enjoy this review of the Leica D-Lux 5!

#LEICA D LUX FULL SIZE#
In this review I will go over the specs, the features, the good things, the bad things and I will also show a ton of image samples as well as offer a full full size out of camera files. It is amazingly versatile, and the image quality is superb for being a small sensor camera. The D-Lux 5 is a little powerhouse of a camera and one that can go with you anywhere and give you fantastic results. Well, good news is yes, it is! Bad news is that it will cost you if you want to upgrade! (but it is a step up in MANY ways). Many of you have been e-mailing me asking me if this camera, the D-Lux 5, is an improvement over the D-Lux 4. I was lucky enough to get a hold of a review sample early so I have been shooting with it for a few days straight and I have been absolutely LOVING it. Hello to all! It’s Tuesday and as promised I am here with the Leica D-Lux 5 Camera review.
