Our Verdict
Fujifilm X100V
Leica D-Lux 7
The Fujifilm X100V is better overall than the Leica D-Lux 7. Both cameras have sleek designs, with physical control dials that make adjusting settings on the fly easier. Still, the Fujifilm camera has a larger sensor that captures better image quality and a more versatile hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder. That said, the Leica is more portable and has a bit of zoom range, giving you more framing flexibility.
