Leica D-Lux 7 007 Edition Digital Camera

The Leica D-Lux 7 is decent for travel photography. It's highly portable and lightweight, with physical control dials that make it easy for manual shooters to adjust settings on the go. Image quality is also good for a compact camera. On top of that, it has a pretty good battery life.

As an owner of both the Type-109 and Leica Q, I must say that I am quite impressed by the D-Lux 7. Picture quality is remarkable and seems to benefit from the higher pixels over the Type-109, but I am not moving too quickly to sell my Type-109 as I have totally enjoyed it as well.

manages to combine small size, sharp pictures and good handling in one. I prefer to the Panasonic version due to smooth front design and easier to use menu still find the amount the front lens extends when on annoying, but I guess that's the design

Sensor full of powder. Like the lumix lx i had before!

Evaluated and purchased this at the Leica store in Boston Mass. Very light, unobtrusive and extremely fast- both focus and lens speed (f/1.7-f2.8). For a pocket camera that can be carried, without being aware that you are carrying an extremely capable camera, with the knowledge that you have a great...

A really good camera. It's a bit D-Lux 6 with lots of other goodies. WEX were really helpful as I adjusted to the difficulty of going from the 6 to the 7.

I am an 85 year old professional photographer and have used Leica cameras for quite awhile. I was looking for a lighter weight camera that would still serve my purposes and bought the Leica D-lux7. By and large it has proven satisfactory but with these caveats.
