About
The large sensor area of the individual pixels on the CMOS sensor receive more light, guaranteeing low noise levels, high dynamic range and accurate colour differentiation. The crop factor of the sensor is 1.5 in comparison with 35mm film format, which means the fixed-mount LEICA ELMARIT 1:2.8/24 mm lens is transformed into a universal reportage lens with an effective (35mm equivalent) focal length of 36mm. This is a true classic amongst prime lenses and has captured innumerable iconic images in history.

That black button above the lanyard point.
. It looks like the release for the flash, doesn't it. Why can't people who do pop-up flashes follow Sony's lead with the V1? It is annoying on all the Lumixes I've had, and it is annoying on the D-Lux 4.
I'm not sure about this - it seems to improve in one area of the things...
