The way I look at it, if the X1 isn't worth $2k than there is no way the M9 is worth $7k.
There simply is no relation between the price of a camera and good photography.
The X1 has superior build quality (all metal body), and the largest sensor in a compact camera. It's really the only game in town. And I *really* like the user interface. Take a look:
Isn't that fantastic? How simple can it get?
The closest competition to the X1 is a used M8 and even that is a lot more expensive when the cost of a lens is included. And I wouldn't be surprised if the IQ of the X1 is better...
