The lenses are up to leica specs - in this category - and I felt I was a happy camper. Now, these are NOT alternatives to a Monochrome, at all, as they are a different yet effective system. Hope this helps Amities Philippe whose 2006 L1 aka digilux3 still clicks ;-) Le 21 sept. 14 ? 22:58, Ted Grant a ?crit : > Hi Jayanand, > > It does have a LEICA ZOOM LENS!
