ELEICA DIGILUX ZOOM

Since the news that Y camera store stopped the handling of the digital camera of Leica were heard, when I went to buy it in a hurry, I was able to buy it with timing just in time.
Although it is Leica, it was the OEM supply article of 1700Z of FUJI, and was a price higher about 10,000 yen than 1700Z.
Although 4700Z of FUJI was similarly sold as Leica DIGILUX 4.3, since the meaning which there is no difference, that is, is made into Leica by FUJI and Leica in design was not able to be felt, buying it there resigned from me.
I also regard the price of DIGILUX 4.3 as their having been at least 10,000 strong yen of 4700Z too.
The case of Leica was an option, and when it went for there to be no shop front stock moreover and to place an order later, it has not come to hand by maker run out.

About the interface and performance of a body, it is almost the same as 1700Z, and there is no privilege of only Leica.
If it dares look for a difference, it will only be that all menu displays of liquid crystal are English.
In photography mode, a liquid crystal display monitor always takes OFF and the time and effort which displays a monitor one by one by standard setup.
Furthermore, since the arrangement of a stroboscope is displayed on a upside liquid crystal panel, it is that it is troublesome and irrational-like which must check two display items.
And if a body is established coarsely, an index finger or the middle finger will start a stroboscope.
Is this camera a for [ foreigners ] design with a large hand?
The foreigner has heard that photography by the finder is liked without using liquid crystal.
That is, seemingly DIGILUX is the "imported camera" which makes the body and the heart foreigner feeling.
It repents in the result setting to 4.3 of a pop-up formula having been obtained about the stroboscope.

Although the name of Leica is used for the lens, probably the original form will be EBC FUJINON.
Although it cannot declare since thorough comparison was not carried out with 1700Z, I feel that both say whether projection and a diagram are the same.
It becomes exposure liable to exaggerated just for a moment at the whole.
