Hi
I have a new Leica X2 as my compact portable camera.
I am trying to add this in my preferences but there isn't the option to do this.
Can anyone help ? Can DPC make this available?

As a side note I am very pleased with the camera and I can't wait to really use it during my pending Florida holiday.
I know people will say, it doesn't have a zoom lens but it is light, compact and gives excellent images.
If I need a proper DSLR I will use my Canon.

I just need to add it to my preferences and upload a few images to DPC.
Does anyone else have one of these?
If so what do you think?
Any pointers or banana skins?

Thanks again,

Guy

To add your Leica to the equipment list;
go to the Help drop down menu,
go to Contact us,
click the line for DPChallenge - Equipment Addition/Change to add you camera to the database.

Maybe include a link for the camera,

Enjoy your new camera :)

Thanks Leo !

I'll try.
It doesn't help being completely inept, but I continue in the belief that enjoying it is all that matters !
Thanks again.

You bet. The Leica looks like a great machine.

Congrats! it's a great camera. A bit of OT, but what a coincidence... as I was eyeing the Leica X2 today. A rental for starters. I wondered how it compared to the Fuji X100S. Have you tried the latter?

I have seen a blog where an experienced Leica user preferred the x100 to the x1 and the x100s has some improvements over the x100 as does the x2 over the x1

A review here on the x100s X100s review

I yearn for a Leica Monochrom but at £6,000 that ain't going to happen !

Hi
No I haven't, but I have used the X1 Pro
I wanted that one as it has more lens options than the X2.
But then; in a moment of clarity I realised why I wanted a light weight, compact, easy to use, DNG / RAW capable camera.
That then became my motivation to get the X2.
Sure it was a bit more, and sure it isn't as configurable,but.....
It looks retro, takes great shots and I guess will hold a bit of value should I ever sell it.
If I need a DSLR with lens options I'll get out the Canon.
Until then the X2 is a great travel compact camera.
But I'm sure the Fuji is a great tool as well !
