Leica X2

Leica upgraded their ground ground-breaking APS-C sensored X1, increasing the size slightly, and also improving the battery life significantly. The Sensor is improved a bit¬and is higher resolution¬while the camera has kept the same very-sharp lens in front of it. The camera looks very much like Henri's original Leica with an optional optical viewfinder attached, but Leica also sells an EVF compatible with the X2 (internally and functionally the same as the Olympus VF-2) allowing for precise compositions. While much else of the camera handles the same as its predecessor, the X2's autofocus is much snappier, and it can go up to ISO 12,500 although much beyond the old camera's limit of 3200 can be harsh.
