I disagreed with a cliche Leica basher's comment, that's a comment you in your haste to accuse me of trolling chose not to read. Yup bought the Q as soon as it came out. Leica also managed to goof on jpeg colors, I tried the Q and loved the camera until I printed some jpeg photos. That SL 24-70 is also just very good. Hopefully this helps you understand that different sensors and cameras serve different purposes to pros and can't be ranked on one chart or fit into one mold. Let me guess "Feel" ?

Fujifilm's GF 63mm F2.8 R WR was the first lens to come out for the medium format GFX system, but we've slapped it on a GFX 100 to see how it stands up to 100MP of resolution. That's not news. Do learn about gear a bit more, this is a gear website. Leica gives you a free copy of Lightroom with the camera, so that's a couple hundred bucks back.

However to get the optical quality of the Leica Q you'll need good Zeiss lenses for that Canon. Have you actually read the review? @HowaboutRAW, no thanks.

Fujifilm's latest X-S10 is a likeable mirrorless camera with some of the company's best tech packed inside, and it doesn't cost the earth. Or are only wealthy amateurs having Leica Q? 3 frames per second, Nothing unessential, no clutter, just simple controls and great IQ. There may be a few scenarios where the Q’s lens will make a palpable difference but I expect those to be very rare events, image quality difference with the already great xt2 will mainly be the full frame sensor of the Q I expect. I think you're very confused about the definition of "trolling". Also a Q owner, with no dog in this fight. the rx1r2 is only 1k less. and while you´re at it check the rx1rs against the a7r2 in raw. Are there among commentators professional photographers? Let's see if Leica will be brave enough to come out with a "Y" Type 113 and a built in EVF just like anybody else? Now maybe it's because I have been taking pictures for over 45 years, and so have a background in manual photography, whatever the reason, I find the Q to be the total opposite. Again and read it this time: What you want, would be bigger, heavier and vastly more expensive. So with DxO they mark the highest possible ISO usable not how dark it is at that ISO. Same field of view (28mm) as an iPhone, cool! hypno.....I'd personally be saving that for someone more deserving....:=), hypno...I'm just waiting for the Simpsons episode where Homer won't share his raws...I can't wait to hear what Marge has to say....:=).

If you consider that a "bit hefty" then I am slightly surprised but then internet anonymity doesn't allow me to know if I am talking to a nine year old girl or a frail elderly man. . Generally Leica does better menus than Sony. In all seriousness, spend less time arguing on the internet and more time taking photos.

I'm guessing you took one or two snapshots a few weeks ago, but I'm just guessing.Fact: you're consistently unwilling to publish any images you have shot as a way to support the assertion that you are anything but an empty hack.Fact: you're here arguing over absolutely nothing. In conclusion you'll need to look up "staunchly" and "to defend", neither of which describes my approach to Leica gear in general. if we wouldn´t pixel peep we could choose your cameras on design and handling alone. Leica, as expected, justifies the price with quality. (There's no CL 50mm yet, and M lenses don't work especially well with effectively flat sensors--albeit APSC is better than full framed.) Don't know about the Fuji X 23mm f/1.4, but the others aren't especially good optically when compared to the best from Leica, and Zeiss, and others.

With a price tag of £5000 / $6000, is this a niche product that no one will buy, or somebody's idea of a dream camera? spot, aperture-priority, Speaking of B&W, a quarter of my freezer has B&W, but I just don't seem to use it. I used to have a X100 but the image quality is really below what the Q produces. Sure. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. I'm using a Zero Image 6x9. Images can be composed on the rear LCD if you like, but a built-in EVF offers a bright and detailed view of the world beyond the lens. Why don't you get as many raws as you can find and try to recreate the problem. Worst EVF among all cameras with +$1000 price tag. Perhaps you have cash to burn - then buy a Leica. Irony that. Yes, your friend's Q has an optically better lens than the Fuji X lenses. Convenience to their readers should MAKE them money by increasing repeat traffic. I've now had the Q for 2.5 years and consider it a wonderful camera. I'm perfectly happy with the A7r2 and E-M52Still a Leica with a standard focal length may have been tempting, although to be honest I passed the RX1r2 with its 35mm lens as well. I certainly have, and the GX7 is no competition even with the PanaLeica lenses. Greyish cast in many of the photos too. But you are stuck with 28mm, which is too wide for portriats or people photos. The RX1's autofocus is a dinosaur compared to the blazing fast Leica. That said, I've read these comments 3 times now, and none of it makes any sense. Exposure compensation does work in manual mode with auto iso. !That's incredible!! However of course, Leica has been known to use Sony APSC sensors. The Q really is built very nicely and produces sharp images, jpeg colors were not very pleasant to me but some people use the raw photos only. It feels great in the hand and is gorgeous to look at—Leica… It feels good in the hands. prime lens, fast and precise autofocus and OLED viewfinder technology, the new model not only continues the performance features of the Q2, but also defines new quality standards … If so, you don't really understand what these cameras (and their marketing) are about.

I had an A7R and was miserable shooting it. Look at it this way the Leica Q is a fixed lens camera without any size advantage of a fixed lens camera. No, that rule doesn't work for APSC versus Medium Format. That you are unfamiliar with digital camera and lens combinations does not make this set up unusual. I test drove a Q for a few hours last weekend. You can look into your behavior, just here not your past trolling of me, for examples. That's worth the extra grand, to me. Read more.

Could one of the Leica fanboys trolling this thread extolling the magnificent ergonomics of this device explain to me how exactly is that "ergonomic"? As attractive as the Leica is, I think I will go Nikon, and leave my options open for other types of photography. The same rule applies to medium formats, most of them have worse sensors than crop sensors. It could be argued that any weaknesses in dynamic range and continuous AF tracking are more than offset by superior responsiveness, ergonomics, and haptics. The files, and I am talking jpegs here, straight out of camera are already unbelievable ...... (tomorrow Raw.) shade, black, daylight, It's not my failure that you and the likes of ikaika777 don't understand the appeal of the Q and it's optically astounding lens. I understand very well that you love your experience with the camera even if you are a sometimes bit too lyrical ("silk"? In this buying guide we've rounded-up several great cameras for travel and recommended the best. You've never claimed to own or have owned, or to have rented, any. I also have been shooting and making my living with a camera for over 40 years, and while the Q seems fine, I love my Sony RX1R II. Therefore you had to seek out my recent comment(s) and then stalk me here. I see the score, think well thanks for that, and skip straight to the conclusion page. Phase one has better colour depth but Hasselblad has lower colour depth than crop sensor Nikons. I use my Leica Q mostly for travel photography when I want a full frame camera with an excellent lens and lightening fast autofocus that I can just throw in a small bag with my phone and a few other small items. Would the Q’s lens be meaningfully, noticeably be better? How does that cost them money? custom, This may be complex for you, but you can direct trolling towards one person. Also the sensor size is lacking for low light photography, which I am a huge fan of. FYI The recent firmware 2.0 update adds an "EVF extended" mode which keeps the EVF on and uses the screen for menu and review, Oh, and the Q can also be set-up for EC in manual mode with Auto-ISO in case you didn't know ;). You don't need a Zeiss lens to compete with this, Zeiss aren't even making better lenses than Sigma anymore. The Sony takes great pictures and is incredibly capable in many ways, however it's not even remotely engaging to use. Exposure X6 is the latest Adobe Lightroom competitor from Exposure Software. While its technical specifications are identical to those of its black and titanium gray counterparts, the design of the new version … You can check colour depth and DR comparison on DxOmark lab results.
