http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/leica-lux-4-lead-1347972736.jpg Yep, one more Leica camera to tell you about from this year’s Photokina show floor. It’s the V-Lux 4 – a big new superzoom addition to the company’s line. Though its got a similar name to the V-Lux 40, the camera’s body is a good deal larger – closer in size and shape to a small DSLR, but still reasonably lightweight. As with the smaller model, the V-Lux 4 features an all black design, with a bright red Leica logo on the front – in this case, just next to the curving textured handle. Also on top is a pop-out flash that you trigger with a devoted button.
The V-Lux 4 is capable of continuous f2.8 zoom, accessible via two buttons – one on top and the other next to the lens. Also on the rear, you get two viewfinders – optical on top and a swiveling electronic three-inch display. The camera is available now in Europe for a pricey €699. Gallery: Leica V-Lux 4 hands-on
