stevelap Posted November 21, 2017 Share #723 Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) i thought its the same as the leica T 020 EVF..i think that was also 2.3MP but cant remember The 020 is given as 2.4mpx. According to the spec sheet referenced above the CL's is 2.36mpx with 0.74 x magnification. Quite possibly the same or very similar. A lot will depend upon how the performance of the sensor/processor combination drive's the EVF, but the figures don't bode well I'm afraid.

jaapv Posted November 21, 2017 Share #726 Posted November 21, 2017 CL EVF from GX8 ? Let's hope so, that is a pretty good OLED one. It is not only the number of pixels, you know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tritentrue Posted November 21, 2017 Share #728 Posted November 21, 2017 Looks like a winner! Can't see much difference in specs from the TL2 . . . no internal memory, negligibly slower max electronic shutter speed, faster FPS, different battery . . . very aesthetically pleasing form factor . . . And thankfully no SL EVF! "Grapevine" was accurate on all counts. (unsurprisingly...) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jankap Posted November 21, 2017 Share #732 Posted November 21, 2017 Only a 2.36mpx EVF panel though. Lower res than the Q. A shame and a missed opportunity? Subject of course to taking a look through it. The same as the opponent Sony a6500. Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikasmg Posted November 21, 2017 Share #734 Posted November 21, 2017 How very true, otherwise how are we married to our spouse? My wife also said the same thing about marrying me too. Apologies if I offended any married person. I kind of liked the CL shown in this press photo, much less clinical than the earlier photos. If I buy, it will be black. Lets wait for the spec and we will know if it s a worthwhile pursuit. Less than 24 hours to wait....... Perfection is both boring and the end of everything. It’s the slight blemishes that keep like interesting. If things were perfect what is left to aspire to. This looks very good with a few unusual feature to keep it interesting. OK, maybe one or too more than enough to add interest but one also needs something to complain about ;-) - Vikas 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott kirkpatrick Posted November 21, 2017 Share #737 Posted November 21, 2017 London dealer says UK price will be £2250 incl VAT, and with 'kit' package option with 18mm lens. That's a good price. Take out the VAT (as some travelers can do) and it becomes $2500. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks very good with a few unusual feature to keep it interesting. OK, maybe one or too more than enough to add interest but one also needs something to complain about ;-) I do not expect Leica to put the best in class of each component in a camera that is not priced at the top of their league. Or else who will buy their SL, Q, and TL2? Its only my personal viewpoint. Many will differ and think i have low expectations. So far on paper, it is a camera i will likely buy, But after i hear the review of early users. No rush for me. Cheers to all who look eagerly to Clooney birth.

vikasmg Posted November 21, 2017 Share #739 Posted November 21, 2017 I agree with those who say this looks much more appealing than the previous pictures suggested. I'm wondering about the placement of the two dials on the top, though. I've never used a T to TL, but on my Pana GX's I've always set the front dial to exposure comp and the rear one to aperture, so I can use my thumb for the latter and index finger for the former. This camera's top plate layout suggests you'd need to work both dials from the rear, so both with the thumb. Might be a bit clumsy.... Any T or TL users tell me I'm wrong? Jim The T series works very well in this respect. - Vikas 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott kirkpatrick Posted November 21, 2017 Share #740 Posted November 21, 2017 There is more function on the top panel of the CL than you can infer from technical data sheet. Both dials have buttons in their centers. The Japanese quickstart guide shows some things that the buttons do. The left button seems to let you cycle through PASM, and the right button does something with regard to setting ISO and perhaps exposure offset. This might become clearer once the English quickstart guide and the instruction manual become available in an hour or two. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
