Last week I was given a chance to shoot some sample images on the newX Variocamera so that I could make some comments at a product launch in Melbourne.

We get our hands on Leica's new compact camera
When the Leica X Vario (Typ 107) was first announced about a month ago, I honestly didn’t quite know what to make of it – though it seemed like a logical evolution of the X line, and a …
Leica X Vario is a 16.0MP Large Sensor Compact camera with a APS-C sized CMOS sensor and 28-70 mm F3.5-6.4 lens. Read our X Vario review to find its pros and cons.
Leading up to the launch of the new X Vario, Leica rolled out a teaser campaign for what they were calling a “Mini M.” The campaign was quite effective at building up anticipation for this new camera. So much so that expectations, mine included, got a little out of hand. And when the camera finally was officially announced on June 11, many seemed disappointed or even angry that the “Mini M” appeared to be essentially an X2 with a zoom lens. Even though I think that an X Zoom makes the most sense relative to Leica’s current product portfolio, initially, I also felt let down by the seemingly lackluster specs, especially the slow maximum aperture of the lens. I usually get pretty excited over new releases from Leica, but this one left me wanting as I finished reading through the technical details. I thought that this camera could have been so much more, should have been so much more.
