I own several DSLR's but I always keep one of these handy, in the car, in my briefcase, my backpack... they are really handy. I'm getting the Fuji X20, however, which has no shutter lag, good...

@Camerosity, apart from the trivia about the heritage... who could conceivably care about heritage? What matters is the performance of both. And it is really bad for both!

Both are pretty bad! The shutter lag is astronomical. This review makes the perfect case for the Fuji X20

It truly doesn't matter. Leica, except for the brutal semi mid-sized SLR is not relevant any more. I think that the X2, which is terrible and over-priced, and their Leica-branded Panasonic Lumix...

I agree 100%. In the article, they mention 6,000 cameras as being the total market? It seems low, but, still, even if it is 24,000 units, it is still tiny compared to what Leica could do if they...

There are some insights, of course, but overall, it's softball all the way

Nah... not really.

1. There are many options to PS
2. The illusion of owning is just that, illusion, you own a piece of software, yes, but it becomes obsolete fast, you spend much more in...

I have Elements... 8 in the Mac, 10 in the PC and will probably upgrade to 11 on both.

Instead of LR I use ACDSee and it works great

I haven't used PS in years and, frankly, don't miss it a whole...

Who has time for 2 sites?

More and more I see secondary and tertiary sites die well-deserved deaths. If you don't have a killer app, why would anyone have 2 sites, especially when one is so weak....

Another absolutely useless P&S and POS camera that will be purchased by a few people with more money than sense.

1. Non-interchangeable lens and not even a zoom? Toy camera.
2. No viewfinder?...

It is a picture... of course, but not really a portrait. A portrait should tell us something about the subject.

On another bent, I'm surprised no one has taken a couple of shots at him

The perfect second camera to carry in your briefcase, in your car and your pcokets. I tried one of the early models and fell absolutely in love with it. It is an amazing camera. No shutter lag,...

Perfect street camera

SSDD.

1. No built-in viewfinder
2. Non-interchangeable lenses

Point & Shoot.

The Fuji X20 has it beat by a mile and basically costs the same

I think that the answer is obvious; there is a huge number of photographers who prize the object over its functionality. If not, why would people buy those failed Leicas X's, the...

My sister just bought the camera and I had been really impressed on the specs but, when I used it for over 15 minutes, I was thoroughly disappointed. The feel of the camera is off, the handling......

LOL. It's funny, but that's about it. DP Review readers tend to value form over function, it seems.

Love it love it love it

Very very near ideal

No viewfinder, no interchangeable lenses, no sell.

Having no viewfinder not only makes it more difficult to frame and compose the shot, it basically puts you at soccer mom level. The add-on...
