Leica boosts compact portfolio with V-Lux 40 point-and-shoot, APS-C-equipped X2

Leica has built a name for itself in the compact market over the years with a handful of Panasonic rebrands - these Lumix models come equipped with a matte black housing, Leica lens and that famous red dot, with the inflated price tag to match. With this latest batch of cameras, the company appears to be taking a more respectable approach - at least with its high-end X2. But first, let's tackle the V-Lux 40. On the Panasonic front, this camera looks strikingly similar to the Lumix DMC-ZS20 we saw emerge after CES.
