Pros: Brand synonymous with constructive warranty, portability, weight, grip, menu, product file quality, dng, controls.

Cons: cost from new, absence of optical sight available only as a light (standard on the x1). Iso car only for times from 1/30 of a second to Jun.

Opinion: My first Leica. I'm a photographer who comes from the past (not too distant though). I've had a lot of cameras (so many of the various brands and models). The premise of obligation to say immediately that for those like me "needs" the crosshairs consider the choice to take this camera that is standard is sold only with LCD. It's definitely just a matter of certain habit, but the first month is not simple. With this I introduce the second argument. It's not a simple camera. Cleaning the generated file, defining the lens sensor pair do not forgive. So beware of slow times, to move, (not creative) because if present here you see and also a lot. The lens here a 24/2.8 Elmarit needs no comment. It is a very sharp lens without aberrations or defects, including any flares in backlight. The shot is always ready and the AF is not lightning fast, however it does its job. Excellent ability to lock the MAF at the preferred distance value, useful in the case of hyperfocal. Impressive battery life for a camera, as in my case only LCD. I mainly use it for the street, but I discovered to be a great companion also for family photos and portrait/naked set. Attention is addictive. Hard to go back.

Pros: Constructive quality, objective, overall rendition, excellent black and white and portability.

Cons: Price from new.

Opinion: New find in January 2016 with leather case at 1000 euro I could not resist, a wonderful sensor that holds up to 6400 iso in black and white, solid and beautiful body made in Germany.rn really worthwhile and usable 2.8 very noisy Object. RnMachine I think very nice and very discreet to take in my pocket, with its 35mm equivalent it's okay to do it all and to have it always with se.rnI do not feel the need for the eyepiece for the moment and the battery life is perfect But for security with 16 euros I took an aftermarket.rnA large car by surprising quality, if used at the right price is a deal.rn

Pros: timeless style, amazing goal.

Cons: In the program I can not make more time 1/2 ??

Opinion: I visited the Leica store in Turin last week, he was exposed in the second-hand shop window. View the beauty with its clean lines, the excellent conditions of the camera and its packaging, not least courtesy of the manager of the store; I took her casa.rnLa'm 'using for some days. I find it adequate as rapidity 'dell'autofucus. L! Elmarit Optics has no problem of reflections against the light, I consider the lens hood superfluous, given the good anti-reflective coating of the lens. Superlative picture quality, excellent three-dimensionality., A pleasure to admire them. The APS sensor helps in noise reduction even though it comfortably at the excellent BN.rnForse I'll have to look for a viewfinder, I'm used to using it. With Oly version perhaps spare a po'.rnDimensione challenged enough compared to contenute.rnInteressante forms the availability of original accessories in the used market. I just bought a holster in a quality leather eccelsa.rnFotocamera Highly recommended to those who appreciate the &# 39; craftsmanship of Made in Germany.

Pros: Image quality, optical quality, battery life, user-friendliness, design and build quality, the flash (configurability and flow rate)

Cons: Software / Firmware obsolete, slow, not very compact in size as compared to the Ricoh GR / quality prezzo.rnNon you can shoot only in RAW. But but rather raw + jpeg

Opinion: I purchased this camera for street photography wanting to accompany the Ricoh GRD4 possedevo.rnLa machine that already has a very good image quality at high ISO and the estate is substantial. You can safely shoot at ISO 6400 for whites and blacks. The raw files out almost perfect, without the need for image manipulation. The same is true for jepg.rnIl design is fantastic as usual Leica. the machine is not really silent, especially when trying to catch the show, while you use the f and when you press the shutter button. The real problem of this machine is the software, really outdated. E 'inconceivable for example that the machine, set on self iso, the minimum time the shutter is 1/30 seconds and not least of 1/125 or 1 / 250s. By now all cars have this ability, not on the Leica x2. So the car iso becomes virtually useless when it gets street / reportage unless you use more times than 1 / 30s. Another problem, but rather much more serious & flaggingthere; the fact that after 30 seconds or 1 minute (selectable via menu) as the machine goes into standby! To turn it back on you have to half-press the shutter button and then you can take the picture. This data goes to a very negative influence when it gets streetphotography / report as you may always miss the moment. For this reason, before you spend a minute you should always remember to press the shutter button to wake up the room. Even more distressing is the fact that Leica has never solved the problem by firmware and I think never will since have come out the other models (see X Vario, etc.) .rnQuindi the side of the picture quality and intuitiveness there ' it's really nothing to say. On the software / firmware desiderare.rnLa really leaves you see fit for purpose "quieter" than an 'application much more hectic as can be on the street / reportage.rnrnPS: Board of grip add us!

Pros: Image quality, optical quality, design, compactness, weight, build quality

Cons: Overall speed, AF speed, screen resolution

Opinion: The Leica X2, like every Leica is a machine of the highest quality but at the same time very particular ... I was amazed by the optical quality dell'elmarit 24 / 2.8, which has a color rendering index and a three-dimensional worthy of the best Leica lenses and far better than that of my SLR Nikon.rnDa top marks also the build quality and design. All very simple and functional. Same for the usability of the camera has the essential functions and nothing more. The AF system is sufficient but still slow compared to the competition, the same as the machine in general. The general opinion is absolutely positive! A car is a must have ...
