Guess im part of the Red Dot gang?
Welp, it happened apparently. I bought a Leica X1.
I'll drop more info when the camera arrives.
Nice, congrats! I opened this expecting that Olympus red dot hot shoe attachment or something lol
I don't know much about the Leica X1. I do like the look of it though. Reminds me of the Pentax MX-1. How are you liking it so far?

I love the way you set exposure. These dials on top are great. The 24mm f2.8 elmarit on a 12mpx aps-c sensor does great too. 35 is pretty much my favourite focal length.
It fits in the same category as the Pentax MX-1, but it does not zoom and has a larger sensor. Closer to a Ricoh GR, Fuji X70 or X100 (or XF10 for that matter).
The autofocus is terribly slow, but i dont find that a hindrance, as you can easily zone focus in MF mode.
