Summary
Leica made very few film point-and-shoots. The Minilux and Minilux Zoom may be the most overlooked, and the most misunderstood. After years of using both cameras for weddings, concerts, travel, and everyday photography, I’m taking a closer look at the complete Leica Minilux series: its history, versions, lenses, image quality, real-world quirks, E01 and E02 repairs, and plenty of photographs.
