Classic values, new opportunities What does the LEICA

DIGILUX 1 have in common with the LEICA I of 1925 ? With its out- standing optical quality, high speed and mobility, the first Leica soon became a successful reportage camera and it paved the way for the enormous growth of 35 mm photography. Outstanding optical quality, high speed and mobility are also the characteristics of the digital reportage camera LEICA DIGILUX 1. The result of intensive technolo- gical cooperation with Panasonic, it combines modern digital techno- logy with the optical know-how of Leica. Classic elements of design and operating convenience make the LEICA DIGILUX 1 a synthesis of experience and innovation. It is an extraordinary, fast and easy-to-use digital camera with outstanding imaging quality that gives photo- graphers a great many new creative possibilities. And that, above all and in every respect, makes it a typical Leica.

“The LEICA DIGILUX 1 made me appreciate one of the great ad- vantages of digital photography – one can refine a photograph immediately, on site, and if necessary improve it. The unusually large monitor display that shows the pictures with great clarity is especially useful for this purpose.”

Horst A. Friedrichs, photographer

“The LEICA DIGILUX 1 is the result of intensive cooperation between Leica Camera AG and Panasonic. Our teams of engineers worked together very successfully. To me, the camera is proof of the fact that the two partners complement one another extremely well.” Ralf Coenen, Chief Operating Officer, Leica Camera AG
