Review – The Cheapest Leica You Can Buy! – Leica X1
I often get asked about cheap cameras and also about cheap Leicas.
Because wether you like it or not they produce a special look and colors that many find desirable.
The X1 is the cheapest purebred Leica I know of.
Video recorded with:
Fuji X-Pro2,

hi i have an m5 and a 50mm leica lens and i want a 35mm lens how ever i saw an m8 with almost the same price of an x2. what would you recommend to buy the x2 or the m8? if i get the m8 i would need to save for a 35mm. is the image quality of the x2 on par with the m8?
I have the Leica X and D750 and I can honestly say that my best photos have been taken with the Leica X camera. Something about the rendering that is really very nice.
Hey Mattias! Was wondering if you had any experience with the X2 and was curious how you felt it stacked up to the X1? Does it fix some of the problems you brought up in this video? I love your perspective on photography (and your photography in general) and would like to know how it compares in your eyes.
To be honest, IMO, I do not really see a difference in color or Image from your examples or many other comparisons online. Marginal differences that could easily be solved in post processing if you shoot RAW.
I like the compact design, but a Sony A6000 can be just as light. Not to mention price, removable lens, viewfinder, larger MP and still a crop. Not really sold on this one yet.
This is brilliant, dude! I am so tempted at the moment! 🙂
LOVED THIS REVIEW!

top middle was the leica is my guess for the "test"
awesome positive review as always… planing to buy my first leica, x2 or dlux 109? which one do you suggest for leica color characteristic…
Mattias, you could take great photos with a cardboard box and a piece of old film. I love your photos! Bravo!

Would you recommend this now in 2018?
Great succinct video. Do the Leicas render the "Leica look" colours in raw or jpeg, or both? Thanks
Do you use a tripod with your cameras?

Nice for street shooting. Great presentation as always! 👍😊
this guy makes all cameras look good since hes such a good photographer
Great camera but my spring loaded flash constantly pops up as whatever is holding the flash has weakened.
Hi, what would you think of the Leica X2 in 2018? Good to have as a cheap second hand compact Leica camera???
Thanks
Sergio
PS: lovely pics…….

Either way great review!
Do you think the X2 is worth the small premium over the X1?
leica it's the best
I love how you editted this to the music
Can't find this camera anywhere
hello. very usefull video. please, in the 6 photos images, what was the one in the middle , top row ? thank you
What about the Leica d-lux?
Better than the X that came out a few years later? Or is that another Panasonic in Leica clothing?

excellent… thank you*
this is definitely on my wishlist/saving up list . Always wanted a leica for some time but need a place to start off. thanks!
