    this camera is only good with good lighting, the camera worst camera for low light.

    Too true about poor performance in low light! It cannot autofocus in low light and you will be disappointed with blurry shots. Manual focus is terrible. What a shame.

    Nice one :-) I’m right now in Hong Kong with my Leica X1, yesterday I was in Macau.

    What a rubbish talker, with a face like that! You really think you’re superior to the others only because of holding a X1?

    Thank you very much for this nice Video.
    I am a lucky owner of X1 since nearly 2 month and… I love this camera ! Its compact size is perfect and compared to any smaller camera (means smaller sensor like 1/1.7) it will do a very good Job in low light (much better picture quality and autofocus acceptable).
    Of course autofocus is not as good as my Nikon D90, but i can now take pictures in much more circunstances (including low light), just because the X1 is much easier to carry everywhere than a heavy dslr+lens…
