Leica Q3 Monochrom Pros: Superlative quality of the files, both for the dynamic range and for the incredible performance at high ISO. Impeccable build quality. Excellent ergonomics of the software and in general of the controls. Small size and weight. Good battery life. Cons: Slow autofocus with limited tracking capabilities compared to the SL3 system. Only one memory card slot. Obviously the price. Opinion: The Q3 monochrom is a gem. I published shots taken at 200,000 iso in one of my concert reports. Up to 25,000 iso there is no need for noise reduction: jpegs are almost perfect and the little grain that there is in the dng is so fine and pleasant that you can leave it where it is. The use with color filters opens up unexpected opportunities. The optical and mechanical quality are at the top as well as the user interface. The autofocus is a bit slow and some tracking features present on the SL3 and SL3 S systems are missing, but this concept of camera, due to the prevalent uses it has, encourages more to use manual focus. A great object that changes the way of thinking about photography for those who come from traditional reflex or mirrorless systems. sent on 26 Aprile 2026 |

Leica SL3-S Pros: The best ergonomics ever experienced in a machine body; excellent image quality; good speed, responsive and accurate autofocus; excellent high ISO performance; Excellent iPhone integration Cons: The absence of dedicated presets in Lightroom does not help to achieve the "Leica effect" even in raw files Opinion: The ergonomics of the latest SL bodies are the best I've ever experienced in a camera body. Each dial or button is customizable, the screen and viewfinder are excellent, the management software is super intuitive and very simple. I also have an SL3 camera body and the SL3-S has a much faster and more accurate autofocus, and allows you to use faster and better modulated bursts. The performance at high ISO is excellent, certainly better than the SL3, but the SL3 retains a better dynamic range in the highlights. The SL lenses are excellent: I take concert photographs and the backlit rendering and the ability to preserve details in the most saturated and extreme color situations is excellent (also thanks to the sensor, of course). Leica presets for jpegs opened up a world for me. Leica jpegs are very good and the extraordinary ability to integrate with the iPhone makes it possible to enjoy high quality photos and great personality instantly. It's a real shame, however, that it is not possible to obtain raw that, through special presets in lightroom, can emulate the jpegs that the camera makes. If it were possible to have a raw with the same settings as Leica jpegs, it would be a real game-changer. sent on 20 Ottobre 2025 |
