My first digital camera was a Panasonic that said it had a Leica lens. Since 1982, I have had/used an old (1951) Leica llf rangefinder with a 50mm collapsible Elmar F 3.5 lens, which is even older than my 11f body. Great little camera and lens, sharp photos, etc.
In 2006 I bought my first digital camera and it was the Panasonic DMC -LC80 and right there on the lens was imprinted Leica DC Vario-Elmarit.

The camera clerk tried to persuade me to get a Canon G7 (if I remember right) at the time, but I ignored her good advice and bought the Panasonic instead.
What a mistake, shutter lag, images not to my standards of sharpness, etc. I eventually bought a Canon G 12 and for a small camera with a small sensor, this has been a very good unit.
I have nobody to blame but myself.
