with the x1 I often activate spot focus - so you can exactly focus on what you want in focus. maybe that helpsi like it, because its simple to use and doesn't have too many buttons and a complicated menu system...but but but auto focus is not very fast. it hunts a lot in low light. Images are nice but not tack sharp like in the reviews i've seen. Every now and then you get a super sharp one..one in eight, i would say. Again this may be because I'm not using it with the correct settings (at least thats what i'm hoping!)
Ming Thein's review suggested that the X2 is the choice over the M9 in low light, and also hardly any hunting, maybe Steve Huff mentioned that!i like it, because its simple to use and doesn't have too many buttons and a complicated menu system...but but but auto focus is not very fast. it hunts a lot in low light.

Would make sense if they tried AF with the M9 for comparison.Ming Thein's review suggested that the X2 is the choice over the M9 in low light, and also hardly any hunting, maybe Steve Huff mentioned that!
There are not soo many settingsThanks Paratom!
Please share your settings or anything useful, thanks in advance!
i agreee...much prefer 50mm.I don't know why so many of these single focal length cameras are released with 35mm equivalent FF lens and not a 50mm. To me this is the better option

none! Or shall I say never! This is often a confusion about the angle of view and cropping!i agreee...much prefer 50mm.
how many steps forward will turn a 35mm into a 50mm??
Lets not even go there!Pophoto,
If you close one eye and look out at the world it is about the field of view of a 35. Most of the classic RF photos were shot with a 35, the depth of focus is better on a 35 than a 50 and it has just enough of a wide angle to produce some cool perspective shots. I personally love the 35 focal length and feel that it allows a close but not too close (physical) perspective with environmental portraits.
