Jake: I have a D-lux 2. While I have enjoyed it, I probably paid too much considering it is equiv. to the Panasonic version except for some cosmetic differences. I do have a strong affinity for Red dots, however.
At the time, there was more talk of differences between the models mostly debunked by the Dlux3 and now 4th model.
I would add that Leica did offer to it's users of the D-lux a coupon to upgrade to the M8. IIRC it was for 500$. I thought that was a nice touch. Yes, the M8 is very expensive. But, it's the loyalty to past customers that is nice. Wouldn't it be nice to get a discount on a K7-even 100$- if you had been a previous Pentax P&S user. Oh, they also sent me a battery and Sd card leather(ette) holder.
