C-Lux overview

The Leica C-Lux is a 20.1 MP 1-inch compact camera with a built-in lens, announced by Leica in June 2018. It is discontinued, so new stock may be limited.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits travel and everyday carry. It is a weaker pick for rain and dust, all-day shooting on one battery, and paid jobs that need a backup card.

No store we track in Australia lists it today. It is listed in the United States.

Worth comparing it with the Sony RX100 VII, Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II and Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III.

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
