Bump – Luigi case for Leica Q still available, 03 April 2019.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.I save them by camera make/model on my website, and I save them by hierarchical filename on my computers and backup drives.
I use the iTunes app to organize them on my Apple devices, but since Apple sorts only by date, I have to “prep” a copy of them for iTunes so the date order and filename order match.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.The X-U is every bit a Leica ‘X', with waterproof features.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.A couple of street scenes, one a drawing on the side of an alley next to a door, easy to miss, looks like Val Kilmer (not sure). The actors were working on a commercial of some kind, moving down the street pretty quickly.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, f8.0, 1/60 sec. handheld, ISO 200.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, f5.6, 1/1000 handheld, ISO 200.

Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.Amazing how noise eats into moderate low-light shots that could probably be done just as well with an iPhone. And this camera's sensor is an APS-C.
Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, f2.8, 1/40 sec. handheld, ISO 800.

Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.I had a unique experience with Mahmood of the Charleston Center for Photography, in that he took my photo with a medium format film camera using a Polaroid back, with very old B&W film donated by an industry insider. So I snapped this one. The Leica X2 sensor must be a very old generation, as the noise and image quality at ISO 800 are much worse than what I'd expect for an APS-C sensor and a great lens.

Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.Normally I would never consider shooting the X2 at 1/5 second handheld, given that the X2 does not have a true optical VR/IS. But when I'm in a hurry and snapping more-or-less spontaneously, I sometimes do that and just accept that I might lose the images to blur, if it's not critically important to get the shot. This image was selected from 2 bursts of 8 each – 16 total, and it was the sharpest, plus I helped it along a little in post processing.

Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.Hurricane evacuation from Charleston SC – this image was taken through a hotel window in Greensboro NC, 300 miles distant. It was grey, very wet, and the image quality suffered from the combination of effects.

Leica X2 Paul Smith edition, Leica X-E, Panasonic ZS-100.No. 1 my favorite art gallery, having watched the master (Reinert) work his way from very good ca. 2010 to master craftsman today. No. 2, a self confident cat guarding an elegant estate in the historic district. This was a heavy crop, from 16 to ~2.5 mp.
