It's longer than one week I'm away from home and only shooting with my x1. It's ok. Sometimes I shoot autofocus, sometimes manual. I always left the m7 ion the hotel safe. Did not miss it.

Maybe ! Editing will be long and difficult, as usual! A few x1 pictures are already in my blog, together with some from my wife!

So, John...any word on delivery date for the X2?:angel:
Still hoping June 6 is accurate.

I hear you about leaving the "bigger" cameras in a safe place with only the X1 with you...am doing the same thing today as I have two hours on my own for a change. A little trip to the old mill is in order and color is the choice of the day.:angel: X1 is on deck...
I'm jonzing for this camera. Haven't been this excited since the first X1.

The main thing which I did not like in this "only x1 week" was that first day I lost the rubber ring on the viewfinder and because I wear lenses and I'm always afraid to damage them it's really disturbing. I replaced it with a spare one I had and learned ... to walk around keeping my thumb with a gentle pressure on it! Just back home, I'll edit and post some photos in my RFF gallery in the next days. Generally speaking the x1 performed great in most of situations.

Bad news... Willoughbys now says:
"This item will be available on 07/29/2012"
They were the ones who quoted the 6/06/12 date.

John, didn't you order yours from Dale Photo? Should be here tomorrow, right?
I did order from Dale, but Dale has no idea when they are receiving any. Not even an estimate. Up until yesterday, Amazon and Willoughbys had 6/6/12. Now, they say 7/30/12. No one else even shows a date. Leica said sometime during June. I e-mailed them for more info. Kind of a let down, but I'll get over it. I'm lucky to have other cameras to use and have to have some patience for once.
It's only a camera.
Leica NJ received a shipment of X2s this week.

Good news! Even as I sit here with a mouth stuffed with gauze following surgery this morning, your post still brought a smile to my face...
Sorry to hear about your surgery Dave. Hopefully it was minor. Dale confirmed they are shipping soon after they receive them from Leica on Friday.

Thanks, John...just the beginning of a year long saga that will cost more than an M9.
Seems everytime I awoke today after taking pain meds and dropping off, I found myself with a camera in my hand. How did they get there? I don't remember but it was nice, kinda like a teddy bear in our grandkids' hands when they are napping.

Yeah, within a month or two... I take my time editing and PP-ing (though maybe it doesn't look that way).

Hey, Paul...no, two broken teeth in last two months. Surgical removal required and two bridges. One bridge will require an implant.
I need some paying gigs lined up.
