I think a lot of peoples would be interested with the comparison between Panasonic DMC-LX3 (~USD450) & The Leica’s D-Lux 4 (Red Dot version of the LX3 @ ~USD850). For those that are new to the Panasonic’s LX series vs Leica’s D-Lux series, Panasonic OEM their LX series to Leica and sold as different product. The big different would be the product design and the Firmware where the rest of the major parts like the CCD and Opticals are the same.

NikonK from FotoKrazy.com has bought both of them and also put up a mini but interesting comparison on the 2 cameras. For those that interested with the comparisons could pay a visit to the following post at fotoKrazy.com

More of the discussions can be found at these forums as well.
