Cons: Non-interchangeable optics, battery life, fixed focal, price, cost of Leica branded accessories. Opinion: My favorite when I go to shoot at weddings. It allows me to do an entire wedding (with SD cards and spare batteries) without any problems. Very useful in various photographic situations, he never missed a shot, giving me shots of considerable impact!!! Of course, given the peculiarity and cost, it is not a camera for everyone... but I'm really recommending it to everyone for the and motions and qualities it gives! It's Leica... and I said it all!!! #daswiesentliche |
  | sent on February 26, 2020 Pros: Practical (well designed), build quality (well done), EVF, appeal, relatively timeless to be an electronics: silver grip for the most retro charm; grain of black and white to high ISO so good that you want to eat it (as they do not know). Cons: nobody if you know what you buy (it's a non-interchangeable optics machine and fixed focal, so it covers specific needs; maybe the price that forced me to wait for the q2 release to find an opportunity for me to approach; desire for Q2 that brings the crop in machine to perfection for absolute for megapixel availability; it's addictive and addictive to Q2. Too bad not to use it as much as you deserve since my main system is other. Opinion: Camera almost perfect of its kind, just because perfection does not exist, excellent for street, travel, even portraits set as long as you know how to use the 28mm in these junctures; everything in the right place where you expect it, reading the manual really useless; very natural electronic viewfinder, second only to the most recent models mounted in the leica house (SL/SL2/Q2); pleasant to hold, you want to use it. Stratospheric optics in both yield and use. |
 | sent on September 16, 2019 Pros: After almost a year of use for weddings what to say? Machine and optics make it a superlative machine, the yield at low lights is stratospheric, the detail is hallucinatory already at 1.7.The autofocus is practically instant an instant and does not miss a beat, I do almost all the wedding reportage. Cons: Lack of double slots, very limited buffer and in burst shots crashes for a few seconds. Opinion: It is a machine designed and designed for those who report. The machine is quick and silent, does not miss a shot in the fire, the only real flaw is the lack of a double slot just to have extra security. I recommend it to those who want a "almost perfect" car and the money it costs is worth absolutely all. |
 | sent on February 11, 2019 Pros: 28mm Summilux F/1.7, performance of a full frame sensor, compact body with simple and appealing design Cons: Absence of a double memory slot and non-interchangeable lens Opinion: The Leica Q is a minimalist and intuitive machine. It imposes the compromise of a fixed non-interchangeable optics to obtain large images, without the need to carry huge weights. The MACRO function is not to be overlooked and allows you to get great shots close together. In my opinion, the only downside to this machine is the lack of a double memory slot. The double slot would guarantee the back up of the images and then made the Q useful also for professional aspects. With the Leica Q it is possible to "focalize" both in automatic and in manual. In manual, the focus peaking and zoom assist functions help the focus setting in a splendid way, but it is always possible to change focus system very quickly by simply acting on the relative ring. Also, on the Q you can find focus functions like Face detection, and the touch and shoot function that makes it very similar to a smartphone. If you are looking for a reliable travel companion, which at the same time is light, a single body and a single lens, the Leica Q is the right choice. |
| sent on January 24, 2019 Pros: Fast and responsive machine, gorgeous and crisp optics Cons: Price (especially accessories), battery life Opinion: Who buys the Q does it for a specific use, so I can not come to say that it is not a machine for portraits, because it is not created with that intent. It is a machine created to make street, reportage, to be at the center of the situation. And it does it extremely well. It has few buttons and a few rings and for this it reduces everything to the essential, the photograph. After 2 years of tests and days with this gem I decided to buy it and since then I have not carried around my A7rII, which I used to use for street with only a fixed 28mm lens. Really great and amazing. |
 | sent on December 01, 2018 Pros: Fantastic machine, beautiful, fast, and optically exalted. Cons: Price (relative) Opinion: Beautiful car, bought new in lieu of the Leica mi X2 (also a really good car) and I have to say that there is a quality train in this little German masterpiece. The lens is really phenomenal and combined with a right sensor with honest 24 MP that make the photos really read even to manage but that allow crop (35 and 50 mm already in the car) with a very good resolution. A specialized machina and built with the best materials and technologies, the price is not excessive if you consider that a FF with similar optics costs even more. I can not do anything but recommend it to those looking for a machine of high quality, ready to use and for a use that goes from street to reportage. |
 | sent on June 20, 2018 Pros: Dynamic range, autofocus, high ISO. Optics to say the least amazing! Construction Cons: For me Nothing Opinion: I come from Reflex, newly contested Leica was love at first sight! I use it often in churches and street! It responds beautifully and at the high and low lights splendid in portraits contextualized, landscapes, also proven in macro! A real bomb! The 28 F 1.7 makes stratospheric numbers! Sure costs! Ma......se one has a chance to buy it........ don't wait! Rated 10! |
 | sent on February 19, 2018 Pros: Reactive, fast, practical, well-designed, electronic viewfinder, high image and constructive quality, central shutter Cons: Covers specific needs Opinion: You pull it out of the bag, you grab it and what you need is all there. Enclosed in a couple of well-placed buttons, two or three ring nuts in the right place, a lens that can not be removed (but that much you would never remove), an electronic viewfinder that seems (almost) to look in an optical and a fast and powerful electronics, the central shutter Extremely quiet. The Q... If you are a street photographer, you probably appreciate (in addition to the focal length) its responsiveness and speed. If you are a reportagista, as well. Along with these also the fact that you can use the ring nuts to set the values of the camera, when you use (often) as I do in manual and can understand only by looking at it from above what shutter values you have set. If you love to use telephoto lenses, you don't do anything. If you're looking for flexibility, either. If you do "close up" portraits, maybe you won't need it. What model likes to see her nose deformed by wide angle, bigger than it is in reality? If you do set portrait instead, yes. If you're a pixel freak, maybe it won't be enough. Because it is true that used to 28 gives 24 mpx, but used with the frame of 35 te ne 16 and if croppata according to the frame of 50 about 8. Pochini, for those who have delusions of greatness. More than enough for the "normal" use that you make of a photograph. 8 mpx are printed with more than good quality even on a A3 +, without interpolating and print in a magazine without problems. Its RAW (DNG) are Gestibilissimi and easy to work, as traditionally Leica. The yield of the Summilux 28 ASPH (even with the crop of the frame equivalent to 50) is of the highest level. Ease of use and effectiveness, as well. Personally in some cases, I miss the optical viewfinder a bit, but you can not have everything from life and the electronic one of the Q is at the top (I made comparisons with Sony A7II, Olympus EM1, Leica SL and Fujifilm X100F, X-Pro2 and X-E3). And then, to be honest, I'm getting a little used to it, despite everything. Today in my camera bag they have placed a Leica Q and another Fujifilm APS-C camera that covers the focal above the 50 equivalent (for those rare times I need them). An essential system, which has a lot of limitations, but that in Street Photography and Reportage has specific advantages. Ease of use, speed, image quality, essentiality, simplicity, substance. |
 | sent on December 26, 2017 Pros: magic Cons: nothing Opinion: It is a perfect machine for the narrow set for portraits, even half-length. excellent file - excellent evf - I would say simply magical 1.7 focus that gives an extremely comfortable satisfaction to always carry with you. I use it with the 35 mm frame then use if you need the remaining part (28 mm shooting) obviously with the dng file - really an object that if one tries it falls in love |
 | sent on November 07, 2017 Pros: Construction, lightness, file quality, noise resistance Cons: The EVF dielectric correction ring moves when carried to the shoulder strap Opinion: I have owned it for about a year and are fully satisfied with it. Needless to point out that his vocation is the street, given the size, the focal length of 28 mm. By day, in the street, the use is almost always af / 8 in hyperfocal, as the lens is shown on the lens for the distances of focus. Fast-fitting that works well even in impossible light conditions, it quickly engages even when the reflex fails to focus. It is essential, easy to use with all controls in the right place. The high ISO file quality is excellent and the black and white that you can get from this machine has something magical. I always wear it when I want to be light but I do not want to compromise on quality. The price is high, but if you look good, with a body like this and a 28 mm of this quality the price is correct. For 4000 euros, in Leica, one does not even get a lens for "M" or "SL". I recommend going to try it in oneLeica store to realize the excellent quality of the product. I only found one problem: the continuous adjustment of the EVF correction wheel for rubbing when carried by the shoulder strap, but this is a little compared to what this machine offers. EVF extraordinary, very responsive and with a good definition. Great manual focus assistant with zoom in and focusing on red focus points (the color can be changed in options). Good dynamic range that allows excellent post-production recoveries. I can only recommend it to those who can adapt to only 28 mm, but want to travel lightly with a product of excellent quality. |
 | sent on September 02, 2017 Pros: Incredibly beautiful viewfinder. Maneuverability, convenience, solidity, quality and incisiveness of files, low noise even at high ISO Cons: Battery life and lack of additional grip. You need to buy a second battery and additional grip. Opinion: The dream in the drawer was to handle a real Leica and use it at its best. With Leica Q I realized it. Small, solid, essential and yet complete. Unrepeatable and definitely Leica quality files. An unusual definition, glossy and brilliant colors, and a blur comparable to a high-end, high-gloss reflector. I own a D750 that I would buy again, but with Leica Q it was love at first sight. If I can ... between ice, use Leica.rnCerto is not suitable for certain types of photos (animals, sports etc) but for the street it is also unsurpassable thanks to the totally silent shot. I knew that the fixed 28mm was a limit. Instead, it is a stimulus, and the files, even as much as possible, keep the same definition of the original file. High ISO resistance is impressive. The cost? Suitable for the product. A beautiful technology to use. |
user120016  | sent on August 24, 2017 Pros: Sharpness, brightness, ergonomics, essentiality Cons: Nobody Opinion: Defining it compact is a sacrilege. Full-size 26 MP sensor with unsurpassed noise resistance, worthy of a high-end professional. All in little space and little weight. It portrays the essence of photography. Unique lens, not interchangeable, bright and engraved as in Leica's best tradition. The focal length is perfect, stimulates thinking about composition, moving and searching for original shooting points. The electronic viewfinder is one of the best on the market. Comfortable to handle, all the controls where you expect to find them. Feeling right away. The price is appropriate to the jewel of mechanics and technology that you bring home. |
 | sent on May 24, 2017 Pros: Drawn with his head, after asking thousands of photographers what they wanted to have in their ideal camera. FF sensor, superlative optics, gorgeous sensor, all controls in place, beautiful to die, fast. Cons: Costa, but it's Leica and you know. And everyone is worth it. You can not write copyright data in Exif data, but it's just a question of fw. For the rest perhaps tropicalization is missing ... Opinion: After decades of Canon up to 1Dx and 5D3 with various optics L, I decided to change. I did not enjoy the holidays if I was forced to drag me kg of equipment. The Q does everything: the 28mm is similar to the smartphone's perspective, f / 1.7 makes it unique even at night, macro working allows original photos. All in a finally modern, well-studied, beautiful, and durable body. Besides, I've used it sometimes to basketball and it does very well! It's fast as shaken and shaky, MaF is more than enough and holds the 2-3,000 Iso. Finally a multipurpose camera to always carry. In addition to the Q I was forced to buy the T to have a super wide-angle (zoom 11-23) and a portrait and macro canvas, the gorgeous and expensive 60 / 2.8 Macro TL, a glass of unexpected quality. RnLeica understood For years that the reflex would die, with the advent of electronic sighters, and Q's EVF is gorgeous, without lags, delays or skiing. I wonder how Canon and Nikon stayed on the pile to see the merchandiseThat change. Nikon is now overtaken by Sony in the FF industry, Canon risks big ... |
 | sent on May 23, 2017 Pros: Ease of use, ease of use, fast and accurate AF, brightness and three-dimensionality of images, electronic viewfinder etc. etc. Cons: Do not have it ..... as well as minorities already described but in my opinion negligible. Opinion: I bought this car a few months ago ... and it was immediately love at first sight. The Summilux 28 mm 1.7 stabilized is a true gateway. Three dimensionality and sharpness make each image unique and of great visual impact. The saturation and brilliance of the colors without dominant, greatly facilitate post-production work. The AF is fast and accurate every time, even in low light conditions. The electronic viewfinder is unique in its kind ... you have to look inside to be able to understand! Many believe that spending over 4000 euros for a compact is pure madness ... I assure you that the emotions and the satisfaction that this machine can repay you will pay off well every penny you spend. |
 | sent on August 06, 2016 Pros: Robust, quality pictures, nice grain at high ISO, exceptional definition, discreet, bright viewfinder. Cons: Price (but it is a Leica) and failure tropicalization. Opinion: Purchased by a month for a street use only. Fully confirms all that one can expect from a Leica. When you take in hand you feel the strength and quality of materials. The baked files are of a truly superb definition (and this comes from someone who normally use with Nikon D4S 70-200 / 2.8 and 14-24 / 2.8). When larger photos made you realize, in detail, of a higher sharpness. 28 is perfect for the whole of the street photo. The AF is fast and accurate. A little noise already at ISO 1600 but the grain is nice and still be eliminated in pp. And 'the ideal machine to carry around forever because small and silent. The cap is easily lost but must be taken not because it must always be ready to shoot. |
  | sent on July 11, 2016 Pros: Ease of use, excellent files, small and discreet. Cons: The lens cover comes off too easily, slow to develop long exposures. Opinion: The thing that I like about this camera are files that churns; you can practically shoot directly in jpg with equally good processing margins. rnIl viewfinder and autofocus are also really good in low luminosità.rnRiguardo to 28mm conditions, I think it is the fixed lens with which you can do everything, my favorite, and I think it's an important thing to like to like this view also the fotocamera.rnPiccola, discreet and extremely robust, the Leica Q is a machine always carry with you, always ready to shoot at any situazione.rnFotografando in the dark and with very long times on the room processing takes a long time and this is one of the major flaws that I riscontrato.rnAltro flaw is that the lens cap does not stay quite anchored to the same; very easy to lose it or drop it ruining the paint, so many that now to remedy the thing around senza.rnIl touchscreen it is in my opinion a bit slow and reattivo.rnNel complex is a jewel Adorableile which may enjoy beautiful shots. |
| sent on February 24, 2016 Pros: A machine easy to use, all at hand keys. Cons: No Leica dedicated processor for DNG files. Opinion: Leica camera style, color, resolution, three-dimensional, all is perfect shots in any situation without needing the classic fill-in, the flash can be useful only in the evening, I took with both Nikon and Canon, but the printed files of Leica are another category, colors and three-dimensionality to the highest, jpeg files levels are perfect, just slightly in retouched according to taste, i find it somewhat difficult to process DNG files also with Lightroom accompanying program, however, also taking forever in two sizes, I do not see the need as early as jpeg it is perfect, hard to go wrong with the monitor display that gives you a preview of the shooting display. 10 Praise to the camera. |
 | sent on August 24, 2015 Pros: A compact which is not compact. Minimalist and functional with a few keystrokes, only what they need. I found still uncertainties in the use, even in difficult situations. Cons: Maybe the price, but it is politics Leica. Opinion: Proven by case. I had to reverse, having no sympathy with the M series rangefinder viewfinder at the top. I made a bargain and now use it as the first body. At high ISO in low light gives excellent files. AF more than ready. The weight is there and you feel, but not in a disturbing way. It falls well in hand and the controls can be reached well. I can only advise those who want to use a well-calibrated to the photographer, both pro and amateur. |
 | sent on August 15, 2015 Pros: AF speed and accuracy by reflex, EVF among the finest on the market, made in color and black and white "leica style", bright lens and of the highest quality, compact body and discreet (to be a full frame), electronic shutter up to 1 / 16,000 that lets you use the 1.7 aperture even in bright sunlight. Cons: None but trifles solved with a firmware upgrade. Opinion: A unique machine with unique requirements. The only full frame compact with 28 mm and EVF integrated. I am really amazed by the quality and finesse that encloses the Leica Q.rnCi are few words to spend all boils down to: absolute quality. The cost is high, but considering riding a 28 Summilux 1.7 we can also stare.rnPer all I care is the top. |
