Am I The Only One Who Doesn’t „Get“ The Leica Q? | Karl Edwards
Leica made huge waves with the announcement of the new Leica Q. The full frame compact camera with a Summilux branded fixed 28mm lens sounds like a grand slam for street photographers. So why am I left scratching my head and wondering what the heck Leica is doing? Hit the jump for more info. On paper, the Leica Q sounds pretty good. It’s using a 24 megapixel full frame CMOS sensor from an undisclosed manufacturer that can shoot at ISO 6400 comfortably. Fast auto-focus using a Summilux branded 28mm f1.7 lens that Leica claims is “precisely matched to the sensor” and can be switched to true manual focus (not fly by wire). Throw in a 3 megapixel EVF, a touch screen, and leaf shutter and the Leica Q sounds like a winner. So why am I still not convinced? ……
