Leica brain-dead?
Sorry about such impolite title, but being avid Leica fan, I’m absolutely negatively surprised. Leica launced their new large sensor compact camera X2, their own camera, not rebranded Panasonic Lumix. This should be tour de force of photography technology, but…
Leica X2 got only 230K pixel LCD screen! Compare to
- Fujifilm X-Pro1 1230k pixels
- Samsung NX200 614k pixels
- Sigma DP1 Merill 920k pixels
- Panasonic Lumix GX1 460k pixels
Yes, Leica uses the same screen from M9, but M9 is rangefinder, X2 LCD screen is main focusing tool. Shame! Leica should not do compromises like that. Five times worse screen resolution, compared to Fujifilm. New electronic 1.44Mpix Visio-Flex viewfinder (identical to Olympus VF2 viefinder, not related Panasonic LFV2)

Specialized Stumpjumper Carbon Expert 29
My new gear for 2012 - 2017 seasons.
Worth to mention — this bike is new 29er. As name says, has much bigger 29” wheels, compared to std MTB 26” wheels.
Another difference is The fork. Custom RockShox SID 29 Brain, inertia valve damper, air spring, tapered alloy steerer, Brain Fade and rebound adj., QR, 15.5”: 80mm with 90mm travel.
So, I don’t have to open and close the fork every time, it does it by itself. Great!
Dynastar Outland is absolutely best overall ski I ever had. Highly recommended.
