Including putting a 50mm f/1.2L and a 70-300L on it....and using it as a video rig...
THe AF speed seemed a bit... Bad unfortunately...

He complains about the AF and he's fast walking, holding the camera in one hand while taking shots of people walking quickly toward him. Then he takes shots of white poles against a bright white background. Then he mounts two of the heavier EF lenses. And the 85 1.2 is is not exactly known as an AF performer. Useless review. And he is capable of good reviews.

Digitalrev Reviews tend to not be serious but like i said above, that doesn't mean they can't point out the Obvious Flaws of the Camera. It's called a Point and Shoot for a Reason, You point and shoot lol. It Didn't seem to work very well for him. Maybe it was on purpose or maybe it just flat out sucks, Who knows.

Kai seems great enough for Leica since they always feature him - Alex Corona Sony A7, Canon 7DM2/EOS M, Mamiya 645/67

HaroldC3 Goldmember More info | Oct 27, 2012 16:46 | #13 Seemed like a toned down review from his normal reviews. Color commentary was pretty limited but I'm sure it's because Kai was under a tight timeframe. Anyways, I think other reviews have already exposed the slow AF and Kai showed how impractical this camera is for shooting moving subjects.

Image Quality and Video Quality are good, but AF sucks. That's what i got out of the Video. Simple as that. Ok I guess you were serious.
