[Leica] My next Leica body may be a Fuji XT-1

I bought one for my wife and haven't touched it. 
She's a novice and complains each time she uses it that she must've touched some button (and yes I locked down the buttons even) and now it doesn't work. With a prior fuji I had the same issue. 
Despite how hard I try, I just can't get past the constant, inadvertent button strikes.
