rchrd Posted February 3, 2016 Share #1 Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I sold the Leica X 113 and bought the Leica D-Lux 109. I am happy with the new camera and the tradeoffs. Both cameras will give you great results. What the Leica D-Lux 109 does better: -more "natural" colors -exposure compensation dial -more menu options for personal configuration -evf which helps when really sunny -range of focal lengths for different photo styles -much faster focusing -macro -4k! What the Leica X 113 does better: -Turns on faster, no extended lens -Better design and less intimidating to people -Handles flares like a beast. Hardly had any flaring ever. The 109 is very prone to flaring in comparison. -More detail and resolution in photos. -More simple. Menus and configuration are minimal, the way it should be. -More detail in bright highlights -Overall, just a better lens. Had no distortion, field curvature, chromatic aberration, color fringing, etc. -Bokeh is more pleasant and creamy. 109 is more gobs of goop rather than smooth creaminess.

wda Posted February 3, 2016 Share #2 Posted February 3, 2016 A pity you could not keep both cameras. They pair quite well but leave you with both sets of advantages. Image quality usually wins with me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rchrd Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share #3 Posted February 3, 2016 It really came down to the different focal lengths for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
