Super review - thank you. We are now seeing rumours that Panasonic will be announcing a MFT camera on 5th June. I wonder if this will be the LX100iii - DLux 8 variant?
The problem with the S9 it has no EVF !!! (Sun???) Good explanation and comparison 👌🏻
Let’s hope this gets Panasonic’s new PDAF lol
It's a D-lux 7 with a facelift. A very expensive one. I own a Q3 and an x100v for street.
Will the small flash that the Lux comes with be compatible with the Q3?
아쉽지 1.6 크롭은 써줘야하지 않나
Man I love the D Lux 7 and Lumix LX100 m2 so it makes me sad to see so little effort put into an upgrade by Leica/Panasonic. No 4K 60? Still has a significant crop in video? Still with 49 area contrast detect AF? It is no wonder why no one is talking about the specifics of this camera.
Agree completely. Camera is for people who value the consistency of the interface. Like photographic “b” camera. And, let’s not forget, the entry camera into the Leica brand.
Which “RED” shutter release are you using
Are there really no improvements in the most important parts of the camera like a new faster CPU, better processing, longer battery life, more photo modes, 4K60, etc? If not then it's purely for the diehard fans.
The lack of a tilt screen kills it for me. I want to take street photos from waist level
Finally a channel that has the Lux 8 and provides a comparison to the Lux 7 and the Q3. Well done. Thank you.
Design is great with the exception of the play button position which seems to me to be too close to where you will place the thumb. Very nice review as always.
I had a bad experiance with D-Lux 7 in regards to sensor dust that gets in and cannot be cleaned, I hope they are able to resolve this problem.
Thank you for the comprehensive video. Does the Leica D-lux 8 have the same AutoFocus as Leica Q3 or still the same old AutoFocus like D-Lux 7? And does the Leica D-Lux 8 have the Film style/Leica Looks like Q3 or none at all?
Thank you so much really informative and well presented video, I am going to get one in July and super excited, thanks again from Lincolnshire uk
Love all the negative comments on D Lux 8 so maybe i can afford to buy it in few months before the stocks go sold out ahah
Very good comprehensive review. Agree also - the Q3 is best camera I have used as an all rounder. I will be getting a d-lux 8 based on your review. Thanks.
My first Leica camera was the D-Lux 2! It was a great, great little camera and I shot the hell out of it until I got my Leica M8. However, since then Leica has lost its value to me. However, I have to say this little D-Lux 8 has a lot of very nice features, especially the MFT lens which is very similar to the Olympus m43rds system I now use. I could see how this would be a great all round second body.
Thanks! Is it possible to have it always start at a preset focal length?
Always a highlight of my weekend
Thank you for the comparison! What is the body of the D-Lux 8 made of? Is it magnesium alloy, or some enhanced plastic for the body and the lens?
Dlux 8 would be an option with the new 25 MP Sensor..with effective 17 Mp and the old Sensor its outdated
First, hope can see some accessory in the video. How Leica will keep the compact camera line with big coms, and maybe 16-50mm F1.4-2.8 lens version, and 24-280mm F2.8-5.6, RX-10 type version (with M43 cmos)
Even in horizontal orientation, the ergonomic benefits of the vertical grip are critical enough for me to need it, either built-in the Z9 or added to the Z8. Video can only be recorded to one card, I believe the back-up option is unavailable. (I would be very happy if I'm wrong.)
The problem is that everyone can enter their website a make a review. We expected your review comparison based on your experience and not the lies that they all write on their websites bro! You bragged to have experienced both cameras but made a WHOLE VIDEO referring elswhere, pfff such a disappointment.
Lol - don't really get what you want to tell me :) I think I clearly mentioned in the video that not only both cameras are in front of me on the table but that I shot both cameras very often! The reason why I show specs side by side is that people typically want to see the direct infos from the manufacturer. But yes, I shot both cameras very often so know both cameras very well :)
Ciao Matt. Nella Z9, l'avviso alte luci (motivo zebrato) è solo per il video (g12) ? Per la fotografia non riesco a trovarlo. Possibile? Grazie per la cortese risposta. A presto.
you right about the Z8 but I would miss the GPS. So I have both. Thanks a lot you have so many great Videos. WOW....😊
short episode and it's 23 minutes lol
8:33 It's actually focused on the eyelash as opposed to the iris. This is a problem I've been waiting for Nikon to fix but so far...nothing. I'm surprised this doesn't bother more people.
What makes a lens calibrated ( Matched ) to get excellent result in any Camera.... it is that the lens is calibrated to the SENSOR FILTER STACK.... and photosites micro lensing. Impressive Ttartisan lens.. thanks for share
Woolf you consider 2000 sterling to be a good price e for the camera? If it was sold for 180000 yen that would be of 1500 pounds in value😊
how do you getbthe shutter count?
awesome video, thanks for covering this topic, cant wait to get mine ;)
Thank you so much, I don't know how you have the time or energy to do this. Thank you again
I use it for video, filming for a few hours on and off. So prefer the Z9. No need to fiddle with the batteries.

Not a completely uninteresting comparison, but I think it would have been far more interesting to compare the 40mp Leica Monochrom to, say, a 60mp colour camera. It would just be much more relevant to many more people. (An aside: Accutance in English has the stress on the first syllable.).
Can you make a video comparing Leica SL3 & Leica glass vs Sony a7RV & Sony glass?
Hello, would you happen to know anything about the black colored summarex 85? Thank you, and great video!!!
Would the autofocus have problems in a studio setting with just the model light from the strobe?
Very good and accurate content. Thank you.
Beautiful. How abt DLux8?
Wonder will Leica make the hold family for F1.8 lens a Leica version ? With the 100mm F2.8 Marco, and i have a feeling that there is a 135mm F2.8 version in the housing family.
You miss the point! The monochrom sensor is not meant for shooting furniture etc! It REALLY comes into it’s own in street photography particularly at night. It’s imagery in these environments is vastly superior to converted colour .DNG files. High ISO performance,no filters before sensor make monochrom cameras the go to for the best B/W photography.
Cool!
24-70/2.8 usually for wedding pro. 24-120/4 very useful for travel. Pro usually pair the zoom with 35/1.2 and 85/1.2 for specialized shoot
Can use Swc on Cfv 100 ???
How did you find the size that you shifted to in PS? I really didn't want to sift through to find that
There is no comparison (leica is leica) ❤
