Pros & Cons

Pros

The overall physical ergonomics of this camera are fantastic. Everything intuitive and following good photographic principals. And lastly, outstanding ergonomic.

Leica store service is imho the best. It's worth every penny, and i can't recommend it highly enough.

Perfect camera for travel without lugging a ton of equipment. This camera is a delight.

Best way of taking pictures is dng and jpg in monochrome mode and 35 mm, using manual mode only - including manual focus, the same way i use leica m2. Jpg files are not as good but quite acceptable (fuji does a much better job with jpgs) images are so...  Read More

Great little camera reminds me of shooting my m6 film camera back in the day incredible focusing and the lens is brilliant


The body of the camera is superbly machined out of what feels like one single chunk of metal alloy

Price


Overall a terrific camera at a high price

If it fits within your budget take the plunge


Its worth every penny and i cant recommend it highly enough

Competitiveness


I bought it as an alternative to canon r system in order to avoid big and heavy lenses for my travel

While q2 has better specs q is more practical

    There’s a reason for all the glowing reviews about the leicaq


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It’s a joy to use either as a phd press here dummy automatic everything camera or with any degree of partial or full manual operation


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only picky things are the lack of a decent thumbrest got a thumbsup from match technical problem solved the remarkably short battery life and that the back display has to be either always on or off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When i was a teenager and shooting with negative film and kodachrome slides i longed to have a leica but could not afford one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then much much later when i could afford one the digital age arrived and leicas were really no longer great cameras


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I currently have a nikon df full format with a number of lenses


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A friend said to me that once i tried this leica q i might as well wrap up my df and sell it on ebay
