Thanks for the words, Dario. I'll keep them in mind.

All digicams with Leica lenses I saw so far give excellent results, well exceeding my best expectations for them. I had the chance to see very large format prints from those files, and Leica has raised his reputation in my own opinion since then. I'm not so interested about where and by who those optics are made: in any case those Panasonics with Leica lenses simply give stunning picture quality, despite the extended zoom range. I have no explanation for that, but seeing is believing.

Yeah, that's true...
I have a Leica CL-1. Leica Vario-Elmar 38-105mm f/4-10.5 zoom. I've taken a number of pictures with it. But the results are nothing like an old Leica!
Hah! My little ol' Optio S4 has essentially the same zoom range ~ 35-105mm ~ and has an aperture of 2.6 to 4.8... f/10.5? Ridiculous!
On the other hand, we've not yet seen photos/images from that camera. We ought to wait a bit... Might surprise all of us!
