Pros: Excellent in everything if you use it manually and with colors and a b&w that no other current machine has

Cons: You need a cover (which Leica sells colored) as in winter it becomes a block of ice

Opinion: Bought years ago used with the whole hood (a giant box with drawers like jewelry holders), also took the viewfinder that looks like a periscope, I added an excellent 35 mm f 1.4 ttartisan and I use it in manual with shutter priority, the two wheels set on shutter speed and magnification, a pure pleasure, files even only in Jpeg beautiful and rich in details, simple to use without complications of endless menus and submenus, here you open the beautiful display with a tap and you have everything comfortably with icons, let's not forget the small removable flash (always convenient the tl and tl2 versions do not have it), I also have two mirrorless Olympus om d em10 mark IV and Panasonic s5 but showing people the same photo in B& W 99% everyone says that: "this is more beautiful has something more.... and it is that of the Leica T. As they have already said it is the car of the future that comes from the past, incredible build quality has only 2 screws for the door for the memory card and USB input, an aluminum block that looks like the Gork automaton from The Day the Earth Stood Still, in short, all the features of a manual camera re-presented in a digital way, of course with the 20-60 Panasonic also works in PASM mode, but it is a meditation camera, to be savored before and during and after the shot, needless to say the looks of people when it has installed the upper viewfinder, put on a table during an aperitif it attracts curious looks and questions about what camera it is.... you turn it around and show the red bolino, it will be a bit snobbish but the beauty of any Leica also gives these small satisfactions. In short, like having in a world of ultra-technological supercars that buzz, zooman, focus with 1 billion points. an old Porsche Targa .. you get on, start it and go with the wind in your hair. For me it's a full 10.

Pros: Small and built great, image quality, price

Cons: Lack of keys, af not a splinter,overexpose a stop

Opinion: Bought at 350€ with a year's warranty in excellent condition, I come from an olympus PEN F, I combined it with a sigma 56 1.4 and an elmarit r 35 2.8. Machine really built in an excellent way, very high image quality, excellent file colors already beautiful and ready, a little soft compared to olympus but settable. Af slow with little light, with af touch much better. I had read some reviews where they talked about slow startup and lack of android apps, with firmware 1.9 the machine is ready to shoot as soon as it is turned on and there is the apk for android. The only flaw is the fact that it tends to overexpopose with car iso. Today with the sigma objectives and the price of the used I recommend it to those who want a different machine, excellent files, construction from before class. I don't recommend it to those who need a performance

Pros: image quality, DNG files, aesthetics, devaluation of the used (In my case it is an advantage)

Cons: external electronic viewfinder, low performance price ratio (only valid for full-price purchases), devaluation of used high in contrast to other Leica products

Opinion: I bought this machine only 15 days ago for 250 euros practically as new. The desire to shoot with Leica was high. I already had a mirrorles 4/3 of the same brand Digilux 3 made with Panasonic and I was impressed by the results obtained with the Olympus and Panasonic optics. I have always thought that the colors the nuances the details that I got are partly due to the internal processing produced by the firmware developed by Leica technicians. I had done a lot of research on the Web where the files produced by two identical machines Digilux 3 Leica and L10 Panasonic were compared that theoretically had to be identical, in fact it was not so, the internal calibrations were different. Now that I use the Leica T I confirm that the files are of excellent quality. DNG in particular contains a lot of information. To enjoy it in total you would need the Leica lenses and the external electronic sight that I can not afford therefore I bought in China an L/nikon AI graft ring costing 15 euros. The monitor is sharp enough but does not allow a precision MF as there are no zoom-type aids or colored profiles that many cameras produced in the same period already had. All that remains is to shoot using the hyperfocal to closed diaphragms or open diaphragms shots in sequence with small offsets of focus. It is highly recommended for those who want to have fun and get unique images for colors, shades and sharpness. I would like your comment on the published photo and the next ones that I will post taken with other manual optics of Nikon Canon etc. are coming fitting rings. 12/07/2019 Today I went to the Leica Camera Store in Milan and asked about the possibility of zooming in the focus, I thought you could not do with Nikon optics adapted with ring and instead thanks to Gianluca Leonetti I solved my problem, a heartfelt thank you.
