At the moment I have an XE2 and an XPro, both with X mount lenses. With an M-to-X adapter I can also use my M lenses (and if pushed LTM lenses). The 18 - 25 zoom gives HUGE flexibility on either body and is a lens that Leica should have made (at an affordable price), but... First, however, I have to take photos - and post them! Then maybe I can think about a change.
