Our First Leica!!!

I always imagined my first Leica would be some old beat up second hand body... like a used M6 or something. But nope, today, we decided to spring for a limited edition Leica D-Lux 4 (the Safari edition). I haven't had a chance to put it through a full image quality test yet, but will post some test shots when I've gone through that. In the meantime, you can oggle this beauty. Yes, I know, the Lumix LX3 version of this cam sells for a few hundred $$ less. And yes, buying a limited edition version is even more ridiculous considering it's only a paint job difference. But I'll be damned if this version didn't scream BUY ME as soon as we laid eyes on it.

  2. I'm gonna buy a leica and see if I can just take pictures of the camera, and never actually actuate its own shutter.

    teehee.

  3. hahaha... camera porn is awesome. You really should do it, Marc. Actually, you've given me an idea. You know how people travel around the world and photograph their little garden gnome in front of famous landmarks? I'm gonna do that, but replace the gnome with this camera.
