When you think of Leica, you probably don’t think digital. This is because Leica’s digital cameras, until now, have been either point-and-shoots lacking a real Leica feel or fake-vintage rangefinders with a sensor in place of film. That changes today. The Leica Q combines the top-of-the-line look and feel the German optics experts are known for, with truly progressive technology that makes it easier to get great images out of the Q than any Leica before.
