Subject: RE: [Leica] CM vs Minilux

I have a C1, which fits in my pocket, unless I'm at the beach, (it's a great beach camera).  It has been a workhorse, takes great pictures, and cheep.  Down side is the auto focus is difficult (as usual), and the viewfinder is so small.  On new years a couple years ago, there was a bar fight and it got soaked with lager, bounced on the floor and kicked about in the scuffle.  No problems, a bit sticky on the zoom, but it cleaned up nicely.

I had the Minilux zoom and didn't particularly like the ergonomics of
it. It wasn't at all pocketable. If carrying it in a pocket is probably,
I'd go with the smaller cameras. The Contax T3 is a great P&S. I don't
know of anyone rich enough to own the CM at $1,000.

I'm interested in a high quality compact camera, and like the spec of
the
Leica CM and Leica Minilux. Can anyone offer an informed opinion on the
relative merits of each, against, say, the Contax T3?

Thanks,
