Leica D-LUX 7 4K Compact Camera (Renewed)

The best to learn photography.Even for professionals- to have mighty and portable instrument on the go.

Really liking the classic shutter speed and aperture controls and priorities, with all the benefits of full automatic and digital features.

After purchasing this camera I have realized I overpaid by A LOT. This camera retails for 1395.00 Do not make the mistake that I did and overpay for no reason. They're available for retail. The camera is great, but I'm leaving 1 star because I feel like I got ripped off.

Leica product.... The name needs no introduction. Long time Leica user, since 1960. A bit expensive for this type of camera but well worth the price in terms of quality. Very.

I bought this camera two years ago. I picked it up because I got tired of schlepping around a DSLR and lens to places and events on my free time; for commissioned and professional work, I shoot with DSLR and mirrorless systems. But for the day to day? Those camera bodies can be too much. This little camera flew under the radar just as I expected that it would; it's nonintrusive as a point and shoot, and it's got enough manual controls for me to steer the camera in my creative process. I found it easier to be a fly on the wall at different events with family and friends, as it's a small and unassuming camera, and the special bonus was my ability to download the JPGs to my phone and photo dumping them to everyone at the end of the night. It's also an amazing camera to take photography seriously as an art. It's not THE BEST camera, it's definitely not the best Leica camera on the market. But it's a great little camera for sure. The raw photos preserve a lot of great detail, and the photos look absolutely great printed. I grew to really love this little camera; there's hardly a day that goes by that I leave my house without it strapped to my body.The only downside is: if you use this camera the way that I do (in all types of environments, weather, etc.), beware that the camera body and lens are NOT weather-sealed. After a recent trip, I noticed dust specs in the sensor that I could not remove on my own. And because the Leica warranty for this camera is only 2 years (if you buy it from Amazon), my camera is now out of warranty. So at the moment, the camera is sitting on my shelf, waiting for me to send it out to Leica to get the sensor cleaned.I knew going into this purchase that this was an issue with the camera, so I'm not mad. But it's lack of weather sealing and its vulnerability to dust is the reason why I'm giving this camera a 4 out of 5.Still, I stand by this camera. Once I get it cleaned, you can bet that I'll go back to carrying it around with me all the time.

Bought this for my husband! He used Leica’s all through his career and I thought he might just like a digital one…great guess on my part. He loves it!

Great value for money for a leica. Pictures and clear with good balance

Bought as a gift for my husband. He was over the moon and took it on our Alaska cruise. Great quality with cool, retro look.
