New Camera

Yippie, I just bought a new camera: The Panasonic LC1. Yes, I know what you're thinking: How can you be so excited with a camera made by a company that makes cheap nine dollar walkman knockoffs? One word: Leica. The Panasonic LC1 is the same camera as the Leica Digilux 2 (minus the cool retro exterior). It doesn't have the highest pixel count, but the lens is great. And it looks, feels, and operates like any manual SLR you're used to. Here's a sample photo that's been re-sized to fit on your screen, a closeup of the original, and the original.
