Leica D-Lux Typ 109: 24-75mm f/1.7 compact with built-in EVF
The D-Lux (Typ 109) packs a Four Thirds CMOS sensor into a body that fits a jacket pocket. That sensor sits behind a 24-75mm equivalent lens that opens to f/1.7 at the wide end, giving you serious low-light capability without a bag full of glass. Optical image stabilization backs that up, and 11 fps continuous shooting means you're not just carrying a street camera, you're carrying one that can keep up with fast subjects too.
The built-in 2,764,000-dot electronic viewfinder is the feature that separates this camera from most compacts in its era. You get 100% coverage and 1.39x magnification, which makes manual focusing and exposure assessment genuinely useful in bright daylight. RAW capture, full aperture and shutter priority, ±3 stops of AE bracketing across up to 7 frames, and 4 custom white balance slots give you a working toolkit that doesn't ask you to compromise. The electronic shutter reaches 1/16000 sec for wide-open shooting in daylight.
Video shooters get 4K UHD at 30p and 24p alongside 1080p at 60p, with Wi-Fi and NFC for quick offloading. At 405 grams with a macro focus distance of 3 cm, this camera earns its keep across a wide range of shooting situations without demanding much in return.
Who It's For
Street photographers get a 24mm f/1.7 starting point and 11 fps bursts in a body light enough to carry all day without fatigue. Travel photographers benefit from the 24-75mm zoom range, 4K video, and Wi-Fi transfer, one body covering most situations without checked luggage. Photographers who rely on manual focus will find the 2,764,000-dot EVF gives them real feedback than a rough guess. Documentary shooters working in mixed or low light will appreciate the ISO range stretching to 25600 paired with optical stabilization.

FAQ
- What sensor does the D-Lux (Typ 109) use?
- Four Thirds CMOS at 13.0 MP. It's the same sensor platform as the Panasonic LX7, giving you a genuinely large chip for a compact camera - roughly 4x the area of a 1-inch sensor.
- How is the autofocus performance across the frame?
- 49 AF points deliver reasonable coverage, though they're center-weighted. Manual focus is fully supported if you want precise control, especially helpful given the 3 cm macro focusing distance.
- Can you shoot in RAW with this camera?
- Yes, RAW capture is supported alongside JPEG Fine and Standard. Combined with aperture and shutter priority modes, you have a legitimate working camera for post-processing control.
- What are the video specs and limitations?
- 4K UHD at 30p and 24p, plus 1080p at 60p. Video captures as MPEG-4 via Micro-HDMI or SD card storage. There's no external mic port, so you're limited to the stereo built-in microphone.
- Is the electronic viewfinder bright enough for daylight shooting?
- The 2,764,000-dot EVF with 1.39x magnification and 100% coverage handles daylight well. Manual focus assessment is practical, and you get real-time exposure feedback - a genuine advantage over LCD-only compacts.
- How long does the battery last?
- CIPA rating is 300 shots per charge, typical for a compact with an active EVF. An extra battery is practical for a full day of shooting.
- Does Wi-Fi make offloading images easier?
- Built-in 802.11b/g/n with NFC pairing cuts the time to transfer files to a phone or computer. No USB 3.0 speed here - USB 2.0 tops out at 480 Mbit/sec - so Wi-Fi is worth using for batch transfers.
