panzerjager Posted February 27, 2010 Share #1 Posted February 27, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Placed a preorder on the X1 a couple of months ago and finally got the call from my local dealer today (located in the Bay Area). I rushed down to the store and picked it up a 10 minutes before they closed! Dealer told me that I got one of the 2 that arrived today... but I guess the good news is that the X1 is finally here! The battery is still charging right now so I can’t really comment on any of the bugs reported thus far but I managed to take a few shots with my M8. I hope you guys can forgive me for the dreamy/out of focus shots as I only had my noctilux on and shooting something as small as the X1 was kinda tricky. As to be expected, the build quality of the X1 is excellent. The camera feels very solid and dials make nice clicking noises when rotated. The elliptical shape of the X1 makes it a little hard to hold properly with your hand but this can be fixed with a leather grip. Other than that, the camera has yet to disappoint.
