Advertisement Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Hi sparkie, Take a look here X1 is tempting, but i'll wait for the X2... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
GFONG Posted March 18, 2010 Share #2 Â Posted March 18, 2010 When X2 introduced, then wait for X3 because Leica did not put the manual focus ring in the lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark2 Posted March 18, 2010 Share #3 Â Posted March 18, 2010 I will wait for X4 it will come with Xray vision Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
krabat Posted March 18, 2010 Share #4 Â Posted March 18, 2010 When X2 introduced, then wait for X3 because Leica did not put the manual focus ring in the lens. Yes, and also aperture ring and the 28-90 mm zoom ring.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damnsharp Posted March 18, 2010 Share #5 Â Posted March 18, 2010 Indeed you can wait for the X2... but than you don't have the fun now with the X1 (but I can say this easily because I bought the X1) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmac55 Posted March 18, 2010 Share #6  Posted March 18, 2010 I will wait for X4 it will come with Xray vision  X4? Why waste your money when the X5 will be released just several month's later in early 2014. I'm not sure of the enhancements but surely a few more than X1, X2, X3, X4.

jsrockit Posted March 18, 2010 Share #8  Posted March 18, 2010 1. f2.02. black / black paint options 3. built-in VF of some sort - compact 4. Full IS  TIA Leica  As an X1 owner, these would be some of the same enhancements I'd like to see. By the time Leica makes an X2, which won't be anytime soon, they will be able to have a full frame version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica engraving on toplate  By the time the X2/3 is released, Leica should have relocated back to Wetzlar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess there are other factors why you choose not to invest now. One can wait forever for that elusive theoretical improvement, while continuing to use a box camera.

krabat Posted March 18, 2010 Share #11 Â Posted March 18, 2010 Add a good EVF and a manually operated 28-90 mm/2.8 lens, and I will buy one, no matter, which name or number it will have. Although, with such specs it could be an improved Digilux 2... I personally do not need FF. FF is another level, and those who need FF, can buy an M9. IS? Well, nice to have, but only chip-based...

peterb Posted March 18, 2010 Share #13 Â Posted March 18, 2010 I'd kinda like the X2 to have OnStar so they can tell me what pictures to take when I'm lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krauthead Posted March 18, 2010 Share #14 Â Posted March 18, 2010 I'm enjoying life now with X1. Â Wondering what may come in the future is of little interest to me re Leica. I mean, why trouble yourself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huzel Posted March 18, 2010 Share #16  Posted March 18, 2010 X2 will be 28mm X3 will be f:2 X4 will be 28 F:2 X4 will be 24mm  or you can change the order, but at the end Leica will sell either an M9 or total Xs equal to the price of M9!  Hakki Üzel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglasco Posted March 18, 2010 Share #17 Â Posted March 18, 2010 I have heard of a rumour about the new XX due out in 2310 it will be able reproduce its own sensors when required and go out on its own at night while you are asleep in bed and do some night photography for you.

I'm very pleased with the current X1, who cares with upcoming X, if it good just buy and enjoy it . cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
enboe Posted March 19, 2010 Share #19 Â Posted March 19, 2010 I hear the X0 was a real dream. Compact, handy, always put a smile on a subject's face. Â (X0 is an old abbreviation for hugs and kisses from the days before emoticons) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimleicam3 Posted March 19, 2010 Share #20 Â Posted March 19, 2010 Just spoke with my Leica dealer! If I put down $3500.00 USD, I can be first in line for the new X 7!! It should be available by November 2019, with the latest software already in place!! I can't wait. In the meantime I will continue to use my OM-1 that I purchased in 1978, no need to rush into a new camera I always say!.....The same thing was said about the M3.. why didn't it have???, the M8, why didn't it have??? the M9, why didn't it have??? If you have the $$$$, why not buy an X1? I hope to have mine in the next two weeks, and I really think with my Canon 20D,M3, M8 & X1, & my OM-1, if I can't take a photo that I like...it's my own fault!! Got to go, someone just told my about a machine that can mix drinks!! Oh, maybe I should wait to get one..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
