My Fantastic New Camera, the Leica D-Lux 3

So, I took my new Leica digital point and shoot camera out of the box, charged up the battery, and left the next morning for a mini-break to Victoria, BC. Did I consult the owner's manual? No. Should I have? Actually, no. I had no problem figuring out how to use it, and I was happy with the resulting images.

Ok, the price for this digital camera is steep, so other than a very fast shutter delay and it looking cool, what else do I like about it, you may ask? I love the 3 aspect ratios it has to choose from - it's fun to be able to take a panoramic. It can go manual focus. It's the only point and shoot I know of that will also shoot in RAW. It can easily be put in macro mode. The dials and buttons make sense to me. It has a nice big viewing screen. Love it!

Here is a photo that I took at the Butchart Gardens:
