[Leica] XE-1 damn addictive

Thanks for posting.  I usually take the Canon 16-35 2.8, 24-70 2.8, 
70-200 2.8 and two bodies and a couple of primes.  I see the Fuji 50-240 
is about the same size as the 70-200 but weighs 1/3 less. The Canons are 
excellent but I'm thinking that a couple of X bodies, the 14, 35 and 
50-140 would overall be a better solution.
