Leitz D-LUX 3

The Leica D-LUX 3 is a compact digital camera introduced in 2006, part of Leitz/Leica's D-LUX line of pocketable digitals built in partnership with Panasonic. It was positioned as a premium point-and-shoot carrying a Leica-branded zoom lens, aimed at enthusiasts who wanted a small-sensor compact with manual controls alongside fully automatic modes.

Hammer prices at recent UK auctions have ranged from £125 to £180, with a median around £160, which is roughly where the D-LUX 3 sells for today in the used compact-digital bracket. These are saleroom results — wholesale levels before buyer's premium — so the price a private buyer actually pays through a dealer is typically higher. Condition of the rear LCD, lens cleanliness, and the presence of the original battery and charger all have a visible effect on what a tidy example is worth.
