The LX has more than one feature that is unusual. Together in one body, the result is a unique photographic device. You could say this about many cameras but the LX has inspired some people to become extremely passionate about it. The wink [;-)] is an acknowledgement that someone has understood what a precious item they have in their hands. Buy it. You'll be winking like a Dervish in no time.
