Leica X1 - Classic Black

The Leica X1 remains one of the most accessible ways to experience the legendary Leica image quality in a truly pocketable form. It is celebrated by enthusiasts for its unique colour science and high contrast monochrome profiles that produce a distinct, film-like aesthetic straight out of the camera. The fixed 24mm Elmarit lens provides the classic 35mm street photography field of view, delivering sharpness and character that newer, mass-market sensors often struggle to replicate. Once you see the depth in its black and white files, you won't want to go back to standard digital filters. This is a fantastic entry point for red dot lovers or street photographers who want a discreet, premium tool for daily carry. Its tactile dials for shutter speed and aperture make the shooting process intentional and rewarding.
