^ on paper the Leica looks lame compared to the competition and the price.
There are 2 things that leica stands out for. 1. personal preference 2. availability for example there is 1 Zeiss Ikon on ebay atm and no Minolta CLE (not in UK)
Again Bessa is widely available, but dont really want to go that route.
Xpan stands out the most because it is also a rangefinder (i.e. can be used as any of the above) PLUS a panoramic camera with size only 20% bigger than the most. The cost is almost similar.
