This is what happens when you let someone like me choose colors
Given that Leica's D-Lux 5 is little more than an overpriced re-badging of the Panasonic LX5, there might actually be a market for Colorware's re-painted version. If somebody is willing to pay an extra $370 just to get Leica's red-dot logo on their camera, surely they'd also be dumb enough to pay another $400 to have the thing resprayed?
The premium point-and-shoot will go from dull black to pretty much any combination of nausea-inducing colors you like. The explosion in a paint factory you see above was arrived at using the randomizing "Brainstorm" button on the Colorware site. I dare you to come up with something worse.
Don't have a lovely Leica that you'd be willing to sacrifice? Colorware will charge you a mere $1,200 and supply the camera, too. That's not so bad. At least Colorware isn't charging a markup on top.
So go ahead and get customizing. And if you do come up with something more hideous than the monstrosity at the top of this post, then attach it to an e-mail and send it to someone you hate. Whatever you do, don't send it to me. Please. I beg you.
