It has become a second self - its operation is manually intuitive as
on a good ol' camera :-)

a smaller sensor prevents you from enlarging too much, or from
cropping too much - for the rest, only pixel peepers might tell I'm
now sure.

More seriously and as stated above you can operate it instinctively,
it has live view for macro or tripod work,
can take any R mount lens I have on top of Pana or Oly glass,
offers bracketting, multi-exposure,
oh yes, the wonderful Elmarit OIS zoom with which 1/8 is no real
problem handheld ... and much more

noise in poor light conditions (>ISO 400), dim/narrow OVF,
I can't think of any other 'major' flaw.
Maybe Pana's lack of perseverance in producing an updated L2 with a
sensor of the type now found on their micro four thirds ?

In any case both the Digilux and the L1 have been (long) discontinued.
Feel free to ask any question
Thanks for viewing
