The one category I have been missing is the pocket category. I have an X2, but does not quite make it as a pocket camera. I received my C-Lux a couple of days ago. I really like it. The bokeh is amazing. Images are sharp. The small sensor is obvious on subjects of high dynamic range. It has every software gadget and function imaginable. The WIFI works great. So I love it. It will be great for those times I don't want a bigger camera. Interestingly, it also made me realize why I love my M10... the C-Lux is the very opposite... I wrote this yesterday when contemplating the C-Lux. It dawned on me today why the Leica is so appealing to many. When I look over the other wonderful cameras that I own and use; they are complicated enigmas wrapped in distractions. Each time I use one, I really enjoy it and at multiple times say to myself: I must read re-read the manual. I never do. But I always feel ashamedly insufficient… not worthy because of my ignorance. But the Leica M10 isn't like that. It is a tool, purpose built to do one and only one simple thing, craft exceptional still photographs. With all the controls (4 not 40) you need at your fingertips without scrolling or gesturing You can know it… it doesn't haunt you with your lack on knowledge like every phone, PC, tablet, car, watch, thermostats, and soon to be refrigerators. The image is the direct result of what you did, not that plus one or more adjustments hiding somewhere that did that you didn't know about, a setting hidden in dozens of menus deep in the bowels of the software. It is so refreshing to pick it up and know that it will be there, simply, with the parameters I need to control to craft a fine photo starting me in the face, begging me to adjust ever so slightly to get an even better photograph. My simple friend, my M10. The C-Lux is a great camera, I am glad to have it. But, it is not remotely like an M10. JD

I have recently purchased a C-Lux which was released in June 2018. Being new, I cannot find a dedicated forum for this camera. When I take a number of photos using different settings such as A, A+, P, Scenes etc, the exact method of taking the photo is displayed on the photo when I look at it in the camera but when I transfer it to my PC, the exif information on the actual program settings used to take the photo is missing. It would be quite helpful to have this info in the exif data so that I can see the difference between taking photos (particularly of the same scene) and comparing the results. Is this something that Leica would add in the future or is there some way to have this info included in the exif data.?
