Just what the world needs. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of Marc Attinasi Sent: Saturday, December 14, 2002 12:02 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] New LUMIX/Digilux? I too used the LC20 for a bit - great lens and nice pictures, but it is sooo slooow to focus, and starts up pretty slowly too, while the write time to the storage media was mediocre at best. I missed too many shots due to that sluggishness, so I sold it off. For $200 it is not bad, but how much is a missed shot worth? The Digilux is a real speed-demon by comparison. - - marc On Friday, December 13, 2002, at 08:36 PM, Christopher Williams wrote: > Yes, it is sort of new news.
