PANASONIC v LEICA (lx2, d-lux 3)
 

I understand that Panasonic LX2 and Leica D-LUX 3 are almost identical
cameras, except in "signal processing".

If you have experience with both, how do the two compare?

Does Leica's signal processing produce better photos to justify the
$150-200 price difference?

Thanks.

I am surprised that this post has not attracted any response yet. Be
that as it may...

See the following for a discussion of the same issue:

The two cameras' are compared side by side here (no difference):

The following is a side-by-side comparison of the photos taken by both:

I would be curious to know how different people decide the last
comparison.
