Sorry, guys. If I could make them myself, I'd be able to price them myself,
too!

That is indeed disappointing.   Though the Panasonic LC1 price should be
considerably lower.  My guess still is at just under a grand, though the
feature set doesn't look worth $500 more than the LC1. 

The D-lux is about $820  The Panasonic camera it is derived from sells for
$325. No leather case or red dot.

The Digilux 1 sold for $895, my Panasonic LC5 was about $500. The lens still
says "Leica."  (I know gnomes did not grind the elements.)

Regards,
