Leica brings us new stuff....

The Leica X is what Fuji's X100T should have been.

No, wait - I got that the wrong way round. 't'would have been interesting with an eye-level finder.
 
I don't know that the 2.4 lineup offers a lot to people who already have those focal lengths covered, but for new users they could be very interesting . . . Depending upon price of course.
 
I doubt very much the prices will come down; they have to pay for the free roll of Tri-X with the M-A somehow!
 
Those summarits do look tastey, and expensive.
Unsurprisingly the new D-Lux is virtually Identical to the new Lumix GM5
 
I think there's some wonderment and beauty here.

The vocal minority who have self-identified as so weak-minded as to be incapable of not looking at a screen they profess to hate and so incapable as to be unable to tape over that screen have now been given what they asked for. At a price both predicitble and predicted

Solms provides. To those inclined to pay.

[I speak as one who was inclined to pay for an M type 240, so I'm not being precious here. I like my M.]

Nothing really interesting. The M edition 60 is too limited as a camera for me. I'm sure others will disagree, but I like to be able to use every body I have for work if the time comes, and I can't work without previewing results.

Some silver lenses, always preferred black anyways....
 
From my point of view the 35mm field of view dominates in compact cameras field this autumn

Apart from chrome Summilux 35/1.4 ASPH, there is new Summarit 35/2.4 ASPH and Leica X 23/1.7 updated Leica X-E 24/2.8 (both APS-C)

Then new Zeiss Distagon 35/1.4 ZM
new Voigtlander Ultron 35/1.7 VM
updated Fuji X100T 23/2 (APS-C)
new Zeiss Loxia/Biogon 35/2 E-mount
 
Yes, finally more stuff! Everything I’ve ever wanted was more stuff that does marginally better than all the other stuff that’s out there.
