my new point and shoot camera!

Whenever I shoot with a DSLR (whether it be my entry level xti, my more favorable Panasonic DMC-L1, Nikon D300, and now my Canon 5D Mk 2) I always have this pressure/stress of taking the best photos to my ability. When I don't like the picture, I'll delete it from the back. Back when I had a point and shoot, everything was just "fun" whether or not the pictures were any good didn't affect me the slightest! So out of 1000 shots from my SLR, I'll probably only keep 20 pictures (yes i'm not that good yet). And on my point and shoot, I'm keeping everything! But now my point and shoot is gone (it has been gone for the past 3 years -- and I've started photography 3 years ago) shooting with a DSLR seems to be more "work" than "fun".

Well I decided to spice up my imagination again and start shooting aimlessly with a new point and shoot. Though it may not retain the detail of my 5D Mark 2 w/ 24-70 f/2.8L, it's still no slouch!

Picture 1 straight out of the camera!

straight from the camera of the camera bag!

all in all, I'm pretty happy with this camera!
 
for one, the build quality of the Leica camera seems to be a bit better. Additionally, without much manipulation, (and after looking at both pictures) the JPEG's look better on the Leica than the LX-3. With that said, it's isn't that much better, but it certainly makes the difference!
