A Nice Tool'

Hi all, well after using, reading & looking at pics within many posts

I have come to the following conclusions:-

(1) the X1 is a Jnr Classic

(2) it is Not a jack of all trades

(3) it has a definate learning curve

(4) being a fixed lens it will not suit everyone

(5) reproduction (colors/definition) are superb

(6) having used 111f's to M6's the X1 has the same shutter thrill

(7) tecnology/digital will advance and other cameras including Leica will come along

some for better or worse who knows!

(8) for sure anyone who really mastered the X1 can call

themselves a true 'Photographer'

These are my views, using the X1 has made

me a more 'thinking' photographer.:cool:

I broadly agree with your take on the X1. I'm on my second, having given up on my first one far too quickly. Accordingly, my plea for future versions would be:

 

(1) Please don't make it any bigger.

 

(2) Please don't make it any more complicated.

 

(3) Please make the dials a little harder to rotate.

 

(4) A rigid lens would be good, even if it slightly offends (1).

 

(5) An f2 lens would also be good, but not if it offends (1) any more than (4) does.
