Do you mean bundled software or onboard? I doubt there is very much difference in the cameras except colors, logos and number of red dots. There is a difference in the bundled software, and the warranty. Aside from that, my Panasonic LC5 cost several hundred dollars less than the Digilux 1. Everyone I know who had the LC5 liked it, especially that it is not so slippery, and has the nice built-in grip. From what I read, the same is gonna be the case with the Leica and new Lika- Leica. I don't need the bundled software from either camera. A little black tape will fix up most of the difference in a jiffy. Shot this morning with my Lika-Leica digicam, and posted ten minutes later: http://www.sonc.com/spring04.htm Hope you get flowers today too!
