View full Reviewĭesigned to be the perfect high-performance travel camera, the new Leica D-LUX 7 Digital Camera is equipped with a large 17MP Four Thirds MOS sensor that delivers enhanced low-light performance and greater control over depth of field. Don't expect A7 iii/D850/Mark IV type files, but at 17mp and the ability to go down to f/1.7 at 24mm it's a nice, fun, versatile point and shoot to throw in your backpack and do whatever the heck you want with it. I haven't tried the 4k burst modes and other stuff light that, but I'm sure they are implemented well. Once you get used to it, its a blast to turn on and shoot. Colors are nice and easy to work with in Lightroom, touch screen EVF works well, and it's a fully silent camera. Can be a bit noisy but for the purpose of digitally posting files it's totally fine.

Pleasantly surprised with dynamic range in the files, specifically shadow recovery. Recently was on a trip in CO, WY, and the black hills of SD and didn't miss having a chunky DSLR + lenses with. So far I have really been digging having this little guy. So was curious to see how I would like the RAW files/overall feel of this camera coming from working with Nikon D850/Canon Mark IV RAW files. I am a full time photographer mainly in the wedding/corporate world but love landscape photography. I purchased the D-LUX 7 to take with me on the road/travelling as a personal camera. Skin tones were accurate to a fault, and my post processing has been cut to a minimum.īut dont worry.I haven't lost ALL of my marbles!! I still have my Canon 5D Mk II and supporting glass for the big events (weddings, family reunions), but for portraits and minor events, the D-Lux is a killer! View full Review The D-Lux's image quality places it in another realm among much more expensive competitors. ok a serious look at my Sony A7RII, and with mixed feelings (because I loved that camera) I boxed it up, along with my 85mm G Master lens and my 55mm Sony Zeiss and sold them. I took it on a paid shoot, and the images were unlike anything I had seen before. When I took the first few photos of my wife, the revelation hit. I then decided to take a chance and ordered the D-Lux 7.

I read numerous reviews of various Leica cameras in which the owners raved about the 'Leica look'. First, let me say that under normal circumstances I would not do what I did I also understand that none of my photographer colleagues would do what I did.so here goes:
