lykaman Posted July 28, 2011 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) I’m happy for anyone joining the X1 owners clan, yes it is a great piece of photographic equipment - AND - we are paying Leica a premium price. The images should be Superb, Outstanding and or any other superlative you wish to use. Imagine buying a Ferrari and only having the performance of say a Fiesta”” I cannot imagine a new Ferrari owner saying (on the Ferrari Forum) how fast his car is..Of course it is! It’s a Ferrari. The operator is the key to the talents within the equipment.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

napawino Posted July 28, 2011 Share #6 Posted July 28, 2011 Cameras are tools. It's up to us to use them correctly to get the most out of them. Better tools allow for better results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnloumiles Posted July 29, 2011 Share #7 Posted July 29, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) People are excited about their new camera, you can't fault them for gushing. I'm sure a lot of new Ferrari drivers act the same way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezc203 Posted July 29, 2011 Share #8 Posted July 29, 2011 I agree with wanting to express excitement, joy, whatever, but the OP didn't exactly say "how he felt" but more of a factual statement regarding the quality (?) of the camera? ... I don't know. Can't seem to extract meaning from it... And also, the irony is almost sinfully delicious: I cannot imagine a new Ferrari owner saying (on the Ferrari Forum) how fast his car is..Of course it is! It’s a Ferrari. .... Right. But you (a "new" Leica owner) just said (on a Leica Forum) how great (re: fast) your camera is. "Of course it is! It's a [Leica]." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted July 29, 2011 Share #9 Posted July 29, 2011 ... you can't fault them for gushing. .. . Also, they might live longer than new Ferrari drivers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
napawino Posted July 29, 2011 Share #10 Posted July 29, 2011 I'm amazed at how much it "feels" like a film camera. It doesn't feel like I am just aiming at something and pressing the button. It puts me in a whole different mindset. One of actually photographing a subject. And the lens? Holy cow, it's sharp. I always thought a lens needed to be bigger to be this good.
