About the second imahe the I made with the X Vario. Love the blues.

Because I purchased this camera second hand, the following two posts are the first two images I made with it. You can see that the image numbers are quite low. I was actually quite impressed with them, the rendition is very much Leialike probably because it's a Leica. I'm still getting used to the camera and I'm sure it's going to take a few thousand exposures to get to where I'm comfortable with it. Just keep on making pictures.

After a long wait and keeping my eye on the market, I actually got a very good offer on a display piece so I jumped on it. I didn't purchase the Leica EVF because I have the Olympus model. Works great and is cheaper. I use it too on my Olympus cameras. It's not the fastest focusing camera on the planet and the lens isn't the brightest on the planet but I do like the build quality.

For years now, actually ever since I can remember, I wanted to own a Leica camera. A genuine Leica that they developed and built (not a rebranded Panasonic). On the other hand I didn't, or wasn't prepared, to pay the premium they're asking for the top models on offer today. Not to mention what they expect to get for their lenses! When the X Vario came out I also wasn't prepared to pay the premium they wanted so I just sat back and waited, and waited, and waited.
