Macfilos noticed that the new Leica D-Lux 8 camera lost some features that were already present in the previous D-Lux 7 model:
- Step-zoom: the option to set the zoom lever to jump to traditional focal lengths — 28, 35, 50, and 75mm
- Zoom function on the lens: the focus ring on the lens can no longer be assigned to the zoom function
- Operation-lock feature: the operation lock feature (which is common to all Panasonic Lumix cameras, including the LX100, on which the D-Lux is based) enables one-button locking of a custom set of features
Update: It seems that the panorama feature is also no longer available.
