Leica C-Lux Review
The Leica C-Lux ($1,050) is a pretty camera. From a technical perspective, it's actually the same camera sold by Panasonic as the $799 ZS200. Click over to that review to read about its performance, as the C-Lux offers an identical shooting experience. We'll concentrate on the aesthetics of the Leica variation here.
Pretty in Gold (or Blue)
Like the ZS200, the C-Lux's biggest feature is its zoom lens. It covers a 24-360mm angle of view (full-frame equivalent) and is backed by a 1-inch image sensor. This sensor format is roughly four times the surface area of a typical point-and-shoot or smartphone sensor, so putting such a long zoom in a pocketable form factor is a feat.
