X1 should be the rebadged Panasonic GF1 .. which I wont call it a Leica pesonal... would like to see how much it is .. if 30-50% more then the Panasonic, still not bad.
Even I got few Leica DC, but they are just panasonic with red dot .. no matter V lux , D lux , C lux ..
M9 .. could be a FF .. as they already announced the S2 ...
Moi, if X1 is just another fix lens P&S .. then how could it be "KING or APS-C" ? well, just few days to come, and as usual, Leica news is not that exciting anyway ..
Anyway .. Leica ( REAL LEICA ) is out of reach .. can buy it .. but how often to use it?
Those M lens are ARM AND LEG .. lol
Actually, get a EP-1 etc, and play with R lens is not that bad ..
Back to this 7D .. really good camera, $2K to get good advance Canon AF system, (plus other stuffs) not bad at all, good for many 20/30/40/50D users to upgrade, or as a back up.
AF system on D300s .. is it same as D300?? Which is a decent AF system...
Of course, I haven't tried the 7D, but it should be better then 40D/50D, and close to 1D III .. I wil rate the D300/D3/D700 AF system about as good as 40D/50D (but with more AF points to select ) So, I do expect the 7D AF system is better then D300 series .. ( gotta be! )
Again, different people have different definition to the word "BETTER" ... I like accuracy, speed, consistency, reliability, less "hunting" etc .. of course, 51 points is handy, however it is a bit too narrow, and not easy to COMFIRM. ( say u want to set it to top left corner, if u keep pushing the af button, it will JUMP to the BOTTOM left .. like PAC MAN .. )
what price do u guys consider to be a good price for second hand M8?
thanks.

Most of them are under $3K cad ... ( high $2,XXX ) So, I won't say the resale value for M8 is strong as a high end crop sensor body. ( depreciated half, compare to D3 was $5K new, used still around $3500-3700, 1D3 was $4500 new, $3200-3500 used, 1DsIII was $9K new, and around $6K used )
Not too sure about Leica lens .. so many different one ... big price range ... some REAL german glasses may still cost arms and legs ..
