Reader Chris from Croydon, London reviews the Leica D-Lux 3:
What's Hot: Construction, look and feel is good. Mostly intuitive controls, although takes a little time to get familiar. Display is impressive and can be adjusted.
What's Not: Not truly pocket size. No viewfinder. Noise above 200 ISO is noticeable -- processing within camera can produce muddy images. Lens cap attached to camera.
Memory cards are categorized by how fast they handle data. Technically it's known as "sustained sequential read and write speed" and it's commonly expressed as a multiple of "X." But what is X? X is 150KB per second. A card that's 40X can read and write data at the rate of 6,000KB (6MB) per second. The fastest cards available commercially can perform much faster: 45MB per second, which equates to a whopping 300X.
