Panasonic LX7 leak gives hints on the Leica D-Lux 6

The current LX5 and D-Lux 5 cameras

Some of the leaked details on the Panasonic LX7 provide a hint on the specs of the upcoming Leica D-Lux 6 compact camera (quote from Telegraph UK, page is now removed):

“Also launched is the DMC-LX7 and DMC-FZ200. The former is a top of the line compact camera with a fast f1.4 Leica lens, 10.1 megapixel Mos sensor and 3-inch screen.

The LX7 is designed for those who want to get more out of a compact camera, incorporating things like full manual control as well as decent low light photography thanks to the fast lens, Venus VII picture engine and 12,800 ISO capability. The LX7 can also capture full HD 1080p video. The LX7 will be released in September but Panasonic has yet to confirm the price.”
