I use to have the Fuji TX-2 which was pretty much the same camera. I too sold it a while back and now that I saw your posted story, it makes me think I should have kept it.
BTW, thanks for sharing.
I miss my old X-Pan.
So I have been playing with the X-Pan ratio of 1:2.7 and applying it to a few shots. Most of these were taken with a 50mm on an M11.

How many megapixels? Does it shoot video?
As many as you transport into this porter's cabin.😀
Of course, you can also record with your video camera through the porthole, if you don't prefer to leave that to the installed surveillance cameras.
But note the side window that allows for more or less discreet shots around corners.
A future feature of later Leica-M ?😎
Very industrial look. I love bridges and where I live there are many old steel bridges designed by Conde McCullough which are iconic structures. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conde_McCullough
Thanks for sharing!
Once again. An awesome capture. There is something about this mans face and expression that makes the photo. Not to mentio the B&W processing ads more depth and meaning to the expression.
BTW, that 55 1.8 from Sony / Zeiss is an amazing best for its small size. Clincally sharp lens.
