All,
For the past couple years I've used the Leica D-Lux 2 & 3 cameras respectively. Despite it's lack of some manual controls, I've recently switched over to the new C-Lux 2 for a number of reasons: mechanical functioning of the lens, ability to shoot images at maximum zoom (scope and camera = ~6,000 mm equivalent), and superior control of noise over its predecessor C-Lux 1.
At any rate, I have expanded information along with comparative test images on my blog for those that may be interested.
