I just came back from a week-long stay in Barcelona, which I wanted to show to my new Leica X Vario (or the other way round). Instead of a lengthy description, I give you a link to the photos I took there:

After the pictures which I took with the Vario, you'll also find lots of pictures taken with the X1 during a stay in South India last winter.

Thomas, your pictures are truly excellent and a credit both to your cameras and your personal skill. I still have my X1 and have not yet upgraded, so it is heartening to see that you run both cameras. (Or did you dispose of the X1?) I believe there is still a place in a travel bag for both or, in my case, an M9 plus X1.

glückwunsch zur leica XVario. Deine Barcelona Fotos sah ich bereits unter flickr - leicaXVario-pool". Die Bildergebnisse sind wirklich toll und wie ich finde mit denen der X1* absolut gleichwertig. (*Indien und Prag Fotos) Meine ersten XV-Fotos Flickr: kmhb2011's Photostream

And neither would they be worse with many other cameras, even much cheaper ones.

Nothing against the pics, they are fine, but do simply confirm that the XV can produce decent files. Which it should, with the Sony sensor and Leica zoom.

I have had the x vario for a few weeks now and am just getting to grips with it and flickr. I have just uploaded some pics to flickr and here is my attempt to show them off. Hope this works!

I think the x vario is a great camera and for me it works well with my little dlux 6.

That made 5 days that I bought X Vario and the sight EVF 2.

 

After all the evil that I could read on this device,I am very astonished by his very good services.

But I suspected it a little, from where this purchase…

 

The adjustments are a true pleasure, except the pad back that it still sometimes happens to me to press inadvertently, but I improve.

The quality of manufacturing is high level andthe first tests carried out show that returned photographs are excellents.

 

I own also a small D-Lux 5 and a Digilux 2. That made one moment that I sought a more modern device beside D2 and I have hesitated lengthily between this X Vario and Fuji XE1 +zoom 18/55.

 

I believe that I have just found my new D2 ! Finally, I think that I made a choice which corresponds to my needs and my waitings.

 

You understand it, I am very satisfied and I leave you to go to occupy me this beautiful baby… ;)

Nothing can pay enough tribute to the X Vario more than showing the output she's capable off. Like you I did the test during a tourist trip, mine was to Vegas and like youI was blown away but the result. Have a look on my shots whenever you get a chance, they are under almost every forum category... Enjoy your beauty :-)

I added quite a few pictures I took during a two-month stay in Taiwan and Tokyo. I only had the X Vario with me as the combination of Nikon D 700 and the Leica-R lenses is simply too heavy for me to lug around nowadays.

I was very surprised what the lense of the X Vario is capable of, when it comes to colour-rendition, sharpness and resolution. The zoom-function is very practical, and the only thing I would like to have changed, is the opening aperture, which - of course - isn't possible. ISO 6400 is simply no alternative for an opening of f2 or so.
