Leica X1 and choices...

My X1 really died because of a fault of my own. Insurance will pay out so I was totally free in choosing any other system I wanted, or even wait for one which still needs to be introduced....

 

Without any second thoughts I chose for the X1 again. We have the Nex with Leica primes, so I had to use that for a while, good, but not perfect. The X1 for me is THE camera to own, despite the price, the red dot, the Leica resistance etc. etc. I have never been so enthralled by any camera as my X1, hence, even having a choice I went for it again ... Unless something comes along which is better, and by better, I don't mean spec wise, but proof wise, I will continue with the X1. A great camera, even if manufactured in the darkest and most unknown parts of upper mongolia, or by south american amazon bushmen, it is still the best solution for my needs, which are pretty wide .....

 

 

Just wanted to let you know ....

 

(Barjohn, try your shutter actuation finger up your 5,6 aperture "pain point", perhaps it's larger, I know nothing about your habits other than shooting crappy bookshelf shots!)

 

Nothing wrong mentioned here is there, other than perhaps middle finger which I have replaced with "shutter actuation finger"

Dank Dir für Dein Posting. Ähnliches gilt für mich. Wegen Leica habe ich meine komplette D300 Ausrüstung verkauft. Hatte zuerst die D-LUX4 und jetzt die X1.

 

War jetzt eine Woche in Japan und bin von der Kamera begeistert (Gewicht, Schärfe, Handling). Für mich ist X1 echtes Fotographieren im Gegensatz zu den DSLRs mit den unscharfen Megazoom. Natürlich es gibt Fotos, die man nicht machen kann ohne Zoom, aber dafür 1.000 andere. Man muß sie nur finden ;-) In dem Sinn eine ideale Kamera für Geocacher. Die permanente Suche nach dem optimalen Standpunkt.

 

Dass es sich darüberhinaus um eine Kamera handelt, die mal nicht in Japan erdacht und gebaut wurde, ist für mich ein zusätzlicher Anreiz gewesen die Investition zu rechtfertigen.

 

Übrigens, weiß jemand auf wieviel Fotos der Auslöser ausgelegt ist?
