It sucked me in - the only reason why I would buy a "camera" from a company that also makes microwaves. Not impressed, I returned my digilux shortly thereafter. The real advantage would be a decent optical viewfinder. Perhaps that's why we all lust after the digital M, yes ? Christ, even a digital with a Contax G finder would be 1000% better than any of the prosumer 4+ MP digitals out there...including my much used Coolpix 5000.
