The D-Lux 4's 60mm-equivalent zoom lens was too wide for my normal detail shot, but I've taken it anyway so you can compare it with the LX3. The downloadable image is approximately 4.5MB.

----



There is lots of sharp detail and no compression artefacts.

----



The superb Leica lens produces very little barrel distortion despite the very wide angle.

----



Centre sharpness is superb.

----



Corner sharpness is also perfect.
