Leica 18400 X1 Digital Camera (Black) Review

For starters let me say that I am a professional photographer and I was looking for a camera that I could travel with and be happy. I took a chance on the X1 and it paid off in spades. This is a great camera. I can't imagine what my vacation would have looked like with my D3 and five Nikor lenses, batteries, flash and all of the crap that I could not have traveled without.

The X1 is easy to use and focus's on the art of photography and not the technology behind it. Compose the shot and pull the trigger, that is what it is about. Setting the Aperture and Shutter speed is easy with two dials on the top of the camera. I also purchased the external view finder and that made the camera even easier to use. This camera is very nostalgic in nature and really takes you back to a time where you worried more about composition than you did technology.

A couple of issues to think about. The dials on the top can be easy to turn but not a deal breaker. I placed the camera in my back pack which was next to a bag of ice. The camera got so cold that it fogged up when I got it out, my fault not Leica's.

I am in the hunt for the M9 at this point, just need to find ten to twelve thousand in disposable income...

I would recommend this camera to anyone that wants a great image and easy to use camera.
