    Contradiction

    It actually does seem that people are always finding excuses not to go out and actually take pictures but discuss the probabilities and technicalities of stuff. How often will you read in a forum regarding a just introduced camera model a thread with wishes and needs for the next upgrade/model...

    A Wish for Simplicity

    Isn't the Leica X1 a simple camera? However, I use the D700 as well and have never gone past the main menu... I shoot at A, define the max ISO and thats it. You don't need to use everything available....

    How do you keep up with rumors and news?

    Keeping up with the rumours is an absolute waste of time. Someone at Nikon has a 4 minute longer crap than usual and DPReview members are claiming a 6x6 sensor in a pocket camera..... Bit overdone maybe... but not much!

    Which forums are you subscribed too?

    GetDpi is a too much "Fun" place for me .... they seem to have "Fun" with everything .... (browse their posts to see what I'm talking about) Also when a new camera comes out all the regulars buy all the appropriate adapters and lenses, "have fun" talking about them and subsequently dishing them...

    Some X1 images, still struggling with LR3 post-processing,,,,, I see the gain using RAW, I also benefit from the ease of OOC Jpeg, and the image are good as well.

    Start The Future (Beer)

    I like a "strong" beer, I actually prefer it over the weaker kinds but the quality and taste is decisive, not the absolute strength. Being an admirer of beer I have lived in Antwerp, Belgium where some magnificent brand are to be had, two of my favorites were: Westmalle Triple a quite common...

    Leica Why I like my X1

    I love my X1 for all the same reasons you do ... what I like about it is that the OOF (out od focus) can be limited pretty easily, all this former major OOF stuff has become pretty boring and the example of a nice image, one should be able to control the OOF up untill an extent that the...

    My 5th image taken with the X1..... actually the first serious one, the first four were well you know these test shots just to see how it operates. Love the camera, still think OOC Jpegs are better than RAW, but then I'm still trying to conquer Lightroom 3.0, I never read a manual in my life...
