The D-Lux 8 is the finest version of this camera. I have had every other version, and also from Lumix. The D-Lux 8 is a very user-friendly, intuitive camera. The lens is superb and, with the sensor, delivers stunning images. The menu system and camera layout are very easy to navigate. The OIS works better than I expected. I can hand-hold and capture a sharp image at 1/5th of a second. Not an easy feat for an old timer with tremors. The Auto-ISO proves worthy of the Leica name. There is very little noise at high ISO's. All in all, the D-Lux 8 is a fine camera for anyone looking for an unobtrusive experience making photos. I highly recommend it, and I'm a very happy shooter.
