A compact digital point-and-shoot camera, among the first in Leica's early digital lineup.
Overview
The Leica Digilux Zoom is a digital compact camera made by Leica as part of the brand's first move into digital photography. It was marketed as an ideal camera for digital photography in its most compact form. It is a point-and-shoot design built for portability. It was one of the first models in the Digilux series, alongside the original Digilux (1998) and the Digilux 4.3 (2000). The lens is a 3x optical zoom, and the sensor is a 1/2-inch CCD with 2.1 megapixels, which gives 1 megapixel of effective resolution. By modern standards it is small in size and specification.
