Abstract: This roundup is a little unusual, in that the cameras in this price bracket span both flagship and entry-level products. Specifically, several flagship APS-C and Micro Four Thirds cameras, and a handful of entry-level full-frame options. We've called out...

Snazzy aluminum unibody design, stealthy and inconspicuous to use, nice 3.7inch touchscreen on back
Average image quality and speed, mediocre 1856mm kit lens, expensive compared to other cameras in this category

Its look is gaudy and over-designed, without enough attention paid to functionality. Operation is hampered by slow focusing and interface miscues. The lens system is extremely limited. The body and every accessory you can buy is extremely expensive, Shoul
No. Unless youre buying a camera purely as a status symbol, there is nothing the Leica T offers that isnt bested by numerous other camera systems out there. Sony Alpha series (formerly NEX), Olympus OM-D, Fuji X-series; they all out-do the T in nearly e...
Impressive featureset; Good image quality; Good touchscreen performance
Pricey lenses; Lacking 'rangefinder' features may disappoint some
There's no denying that Leica's first foray in to the compact system camera market won't be to everyone's taste.The unconventional control layout, large touchscreen and lack of a viewfinder - to name but three features - will mean that many Leica aficio...
