Are Leica digital cameras really that much better than other brands?

I have to say I am rather shocked at the prices of Leica digital cameras compared to other cameras of similar power and function from other brands. Are these camera prices really justified? $500 for a 7.2 MP Leica C-Lux? How good are these digital cameras?

Not really, especially given the fact that they're usually re-branded Panasonics. They should have excellent optics, but since Panny also uses Leica optics, there's still no real advantage.

When you buy a Leica, you're usually getting excellent equipment, but you'll be paying a premium for the name. Of course, it also has some collector's value (though if you're looking for a daily user, it won't hold its value as well).

The only instance where a Leica digital might be better than other brands is the new M8 Rangefinder digital. It's really the only game in town (there was the Epson RD-1 which was based on the Cosina RF body used by Voightlander...but it's out of production and getting a little old on the used market). If you need a digital RF, the M8 is the only way to go currently.
