Hah! I actually hear that a lot about my photos, especially the ones I take at night. Of course, nighttime is my favorite time of the day to photograph -- I usually manage to stay out all night photographing at least once on every trip and often two or three times, as was the case this last trip -- and photographing urban areas at night is also my primary photographic interest, whether I'm at home or traveling. Daylight street photography is really just something I do to pass the time until the sun sets...Audii, the first shot from High Line Park looks like it is a Hollywood backset or something from Universal Studios.
I have at least as many other cameras as you -- including a Contax 645/P30+ outfit -- and I agree with you about the RX1 series' color performance. FWIW, I had initially intended to buy an RX1R, as you did, but after testing the two cameras side-by-side, I confirmed my fear that the RX1R's lack of an AA filter would cause it to suffer moiré issues far more often than RX1 does, which itself is already on the edge when photographing in an urban environment where there are lots of brick buildings. Fortunately, though, aside from this particular aspect, I find the performance of the two cameras similar enough that I don't feel I'm missing much in terms of resolution by photographing with an RX1 instead of an RX1R ... and Yes, I agree with you that they do B&W quite well, too!I have 8 other cameras, but I actually bought the RX1R because of the very good ability to take nightshots = I think the colors are better at nightscenes, than my other cameras, but I can also see, that it does very fine in B & W.
