Less flare, less colour fringing at the edges. Tom Abrahamsson has compared it to the versions after that and proclaims it better than all but the present version.

Most of them have very good comments about this camera and the performance of this 28mm f2.8 lens. However, minority sad the pictures were not that impressive for a compact camera at that price tag ! I am now eyeing on it to the next compact camera in my bag besides the leica M6. Please send me comments about this camera and the performance of the lense. Thanks... Singapore Lugger, Dennis Thong.
