The most detailed Leica X1 review yet

By LR admin | Published: September 22, 2009

Leica X1

The original review is in Spanish, but here is the English Google translation. This is the most detailed review I’ve seen so far for the recently released Leica X1 camera. Please note that a pre-production version was tested.

Leica X1 is expected to be available by the end of the year. Some sources even suggest availability as early as next month (October).
