In-stock alert: Leica DLux4 Safari for $1000

If you had been holding out for the Leica D-Lux4 Safari edition, it is now in-stock and shipping from Ace Photo Digital and Willoughby's on Amazon.com. Amazon herself is out-of-stock but they are accepting pre-orders.

It will be interesting to see how the DLux4 demand is affected now that the Canon S90IS has started shipping. The S90IS goes for $430 out of the gate, and it has already managed to shave off most of the limited-availability premium of the Panasonic LX3.

Canon Strikes Back?
