Unfortunately, unless Leica adds a distance scale on that focus wheel such as the Sigma DP's have, zone focusing will be tricky.


Or a distance scale on the LCD would be fine, like in the LX3. For the life of me I dont understand why the EP-1 and GF1 dont have one, how hard is it to make it? BTW I saw a video somewhere of the X1 shooting and the shutter is *really* quiet, it sounds like a clock: tik-tik-tik...
Another "why not" for the EP-1/GF1...
