Leica X1

[obfuscate]

I will trade in my D-LUX 4 for the X1 !!! The more expensive it is the more I want. LOL... :bsmilie:

I am definitely gonna get this camera! ;p

Just hope that the sensor is good at higher ISOs.

 

[vicpeh]

No one seems to know who makes the sensor even till now; many guessing it's a Sony.

And why didn't they put the aperture dial on the lens barrel??? :-(

 

[Elessar]

yum. i love compact cams with large sensors........better start saving.

 

[nightwolf75]

True, but looking at the price, there's no way i'm getting this..

even my M6+50 cron didn't cost as much, with money like this, i'd rather get a 50mm summilux;p

wah... got M6 ah...

:bsmilie::bsmilie:
Limited edition M6 that uses lens cap to replace shutter, only 1 piece in the world. Super silent, but very mah huan :sweat:

 

[proteonXPR]

rawr!!!

where's the viewfinder?? (zZz probably going to be some external accessory)

i would snap this up immediately if its 24mm FOV.. but the 35 fov is a bit tight..

sorry, say wrongly, no moving mirror and shutter lag is cut to a minimum;p

it probably is able to use the viewfinder for d-lux 4.

A friend of mine wrote a review for the camera. Now I want one.

[Cactus jACK]

so many nice things to buy... but so little money... :cry:

 

[bigpond]

Yeah, money always no enough

At US$2k or some S$3k, this little baby will cost as much as a used M8 (I've seen some going for less than S$4k). Wonder if its IQ will be as good as the M8 (or maybe better?).

ISO 3200 is still usable according to Steve Huff as shown in this photo.

[eooojj]

But the $3k X1 comes with lens.. S$3k M8 doesn't ;p

Review is out at www.dpreview.com, not worth it unless they fix the firmware in my opinion...

 

[bene123]

For the price might as well get an M8?

 

[GFONG]

The X1 reviewed by Steve has been posted. The picture quality of X1 is as good as M8.

[artspraken]

I am passing because of the AF. For street, I will use GRDIII until a bigger frame alternative with faster AF is available.

I am aware GF1 fits the bill, but am inclined to wait for newer version
