The LX wins both as a 'system' camera and by the simple way that everything falls so well to hand in use. The *ist D is clumsy by comparison and there was never any feeling that a system would be in place for it; just a replacement model - although with the rate of improvement in technology that was always to be expected. I like the *ist D very much - but the question was favourite and there is for me a clear winner. The LX is not just a favourite but an everyday camera too. It really will take some beating in that respect, even above the MX, as it is so nice to handle. Malcolm
