Pros:Image quality, ratio 3:2, build quality, optics, maneuverability
Cons:Very high cost (although in line with the other medium format), slowness, noise at high ISO
Opinion:The S2 is the first Leica camera medium format, and offers some interesting features. Unlike most of the MF has a aspect ratio of 3:2, the same as the FF and APS-C cameras, in my opinion more enjoyable. The image quality is outstanding in low ISO, and decays sharply to 640 and ISO 1250 is almost unusable. The autofocus is good, but the burst is rather slow. The park includes some specific optical lenses usable created by Leica, and by July 2011, optical signals MF Hasselblad, Pentax and Mamiya, using the appropriate adapter. Like all medium format camera is a specialized, dedicated to those who are only interested in the top image quality and has no budget problems. In the field of nature photography may have good applications for landscapes, but unless you are sheikhs :-) I think it makes more sense a FF SLR like the Canon 5D Mark II, which costs 1/10 and offers excellent image quality (with 21 megapixels and optical quality of the 5D2 can already make huge prints).
