Another wonderful feature is that the different frame lines
can be brought into view just by moving the frame selector
lever on the front of the camera.  One needn't change lenses
in order to see which lens will provide the optimal
perspective, or cropping, of the subject.  This will work for
lenses of 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm, 90mm, and 135mm, depending
on viewfinder and camera specs.  In fact, one doesn't even
need a lens on the camera to get this to work.  It's a nice
feature ... perhaps an even more valuable feature than DOF
preview in some cases.  OTOH, I do like DOF preview on SLR
cameras, and I use it often.

I really think the LX and the Leica complement each other very
well.  The MX and Leica are also quite nice together.
