Yes, i have comment, i say this to leica
NUTS.
2000 bucks for that. JESUS CHRIST. You can get the same from sony for 600 bucks US.
their EVF alone cost 500 bucks, nearly the price of sony NEX 5N.
OK M9 is the world only full frame mirrorless, and it look amazing, with super build quality.
That is true leica.
Ok only east german product. It should not cost so much.
But, since people willing to pay the money, what can i say.
But X2 is basically a panasonic inside, but try to look like a real leica like M9.

Thanks for the comments,,just needed a good bro like you to shine the light on what a true Leica is,,, if its a Panny inside than its not worth it,,
They charge that because they can.
It's like a Rolex. You can get the same movement in a Tudor for less than one third of the price.
You're paying for the red dot with the word "Leica" in the middle.
How do you define "true Leica"??? Everything made in Germany? Everything made in the former West Germany? Everything made by Leica with no subcontracting at any stage?
Hows abouts Canun gX againsts the OMD-EM5? which camela's batter in features, quality and price of money? which have got batter reviews and what you thinking of thoughts?
canon GX1 focus speed is too slow. Cannot compare with super fast focusing of EM5.
Image Quality too, EM5 better. You can change lens too.

Olympus has released a firmware update for its OM-D E-M5 high-end Micro Four Thirds camera. Firmware 1.5 allows the use of the camera's in-body stabilization during video recording when using non-native lenses on the camera once the focal length has been specified. The firmware also promises to reduce the humming noise generated by the camera's stabilization system when keeping the sensor in its neutral position. The update can be downloaded and installed via the Olympus Camera Updater software. The update also includes the changes promised for the suspended firmware v1.2.
Chris Smith, a photographer with the Brantford Expositor, caught a candid moment between aspiring ballet dancers as they rehearsed a scene from The Nutcracker at the Sanderson Centre in Brantford, Ont., last Sunday. Smith said he patiently waited until the children forgot he was there before looking for a good pattern or moment. Without a flash, so as not to disrupt the kids, he shot with a Canon Eos-1D, iso 1600, 80-200 mm lens at 165 mm, f2.8 at 1/250.
