| The new LEICA DIGILUX 2 camera combines the best of two worlds. |
In the new LEICA DIGILUX 2, modern digital technology and the proven concepts of traditional analog photography are joined in a harmonious combination: Decisive photographic parameters such as sharpness, aperture, focal length and shutter speeds can be controlled like those on a classic single-lens-reflex camera by means of setting rings on the lens and a shutter speed dial. | | To ensure the best pictorial results, the lens, the sensor and the electronics are optimally tailored to one another. The 2/3-inch CCD sensor is very large for its resolution of 5 million pixels. This combination of a high-performance lens and a large surface per picture element produces an extraordinary pictorial quality. | | •Fast 7 – 22.5 mm LEICA DC VARIO SUMMICRON f/2 – f/2.4 ASPH. zoom lens (equivalent to a 28 - 90 mm zoom lens on a 35 mm camera) | | •2/3" CCD sensor with 5.0 million pixels | | •Analog photography feeling conveyed by manual setting possibilities directly at the lens | | •Its traditional clear design readily identifies it as a typical Leica | | •Transfer-reflexive 2,5“ display with a resolution of 211,000 pixels and outstanding brilliance | | •Electronic viewfinder with 235,000 pixels that covers 100% of the picture being taken | | •fast Autofocus: | - only 500ms/600ms including focusing (with 28 mm/90mm settings) | | •short shutter release delay: | - only 94ms with manual focusing | | •Extra large picture storage card with 64 MB | | •Interval timing and control via the PC | | •Connections: | USB 2.0 (High Speed); DC IN; AV output with option of PAL or NTSC; Remote release cable | | •Extremely robust and long-lived because of the use of high-grade materials and precision fabrication | | •File formats | RAW, JPEG (extra low, low and high compression/SUPER FINE, FINE, STANDARD), Motion-JPEG | | •Storage media | SD-Memory Card and Multi Media Card (Camera is supplied with a | 64MB SD-Memory Card) | | •Color display | 2,5" Color transreflective TFT-LCD with 211,000 pixels | | •Electronic Viewfinder | Electronic viewfinder with 235,000 pixels and diopter compensation | (-4D...+4D); suitable for eyeglass wearers | | •Image Sensor | 2/3"-CCD sensor with 5.24 million total pixels, 5 million effective pixels, primary color filter | | •Sensitivity | ISO 100, 200, 400 | | •Image sizes | 2,560x1,920; 2,048x1,536; 1,600x1,200; 1,280x960; 640x480; 1,920x1,080 (HDTV); 320x240 for video sequences | | •Capacity on a 64 MB card | JPEG approx. 15-484 images, RAW 5 images | | •Lens | LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMICRON 7-22.5 mm f/2.0-2.4 ASPH. | (corresponds to a 28-90 mm zoom lens on a 35 mm camera); 13 elements 10 components | | •Near focus range | 30 cm | | •Digital zoom | 2x /3x | | •Exposure control | Pogram (P) with Program Shift, Aperture-priority (A), Shutter-priority (T), Manual exposure setting (M).Shutter speeds: 8s-1/4000s (in M and T:8s-1/2000s).
