Pros: Wonderful images. It does not clutter. The colors.

Cons: Price?

Opinion: I prefer this to the Q3 with 28mm, a matter of taste. Easy to use, intuitive menu. Lightweight and easy to handle. Of this version I appreciate the 43mm, more akin to me. The macro function is excellent and I find it useful and fun. I love Leica's colors, already as wonderful as she bakes them. Leica prices are known to be not low, but on the market they maintain value and this is no small thing. It is not an all-rounder machine but by cropping the generous sensor you can go further. Leica FOTOS is lightning fast, I didn't have any problems.

Pros: Size, apo lens, Leica color science, Leica looks, video specs, build quality

Cons: Only one sd card slot

Opinion: I come from a Leica sl2 system with 24-90, for reasons of size of my studio the lens was always set between 40 and 50 mm to make a full figure. I thought about it for six months and then I decided to make the change to q3 43. If only I had done it before! It is truly extraordinary in terms of image quality, unparalleled. Super reliable autofocus even in continuous focus, probably thanks to the new update. Rated 10 out of 10

Pros: Superlative image quality, relative compactness that makes it a possible single machine to carry around, materials, menus, interface

Cons: Not pocket-sized, AF not first in class, price (but justified by the yield), lack of double slot, lens hood that prevents you from mounting filters

Opinion: It is a camera at the same time similar but different from the original Q3: the 28mm is more suitable for landscape and "wide" street while this one is more portrait and more classic street. The image quality of the aspherical Summicron is an impressive thing, it's incredible and worth the price of the machine alone. The 43mm is the right middle ground between the 35mm and the 50, it can act as both even if it is closer to the 50 in terms of yield. Also very suitable for portraits and honestly pairing it with the Q3 28mm I will make the perfect match for wedding shoots. Too bad the double slot is missing but having reliable SD there are no major problems. I think I will take it on the road with me as the only camera instead of the 28mm, even if I will give up something on the landscape to prefer details and a "normal" format without distortions. Compared to the 28mm, the minimum focusing distance is a bit farther away, so you use the macro trigger ring more for details. The original lens hood is designed so that you cannot mount filters and use the macro mode that advances the lens and slams into the lens hood, so if you use filters you have to look for a third-party one. But the fundamental thing is that this camera can truly become a truly professional definitive "one Lens camera", the quality of the files it churns out is literally incredible, from the colors to the three-dimensionality, to the bokeh it provides to the lack of distortions and non-existent chromatic aberrations, with an unsurpassed paste. If you like the 40mm and you are able to sustain the expense, it is a camera not for everyone but for those who know how to exploit it it is really THE choice.

Pros: image quality, handling,

Cons: maybe a bit of a high price

Opinion: To photograph views and city is fantastic. Excellent practicality, it is pocket-sized. I own and have owned various brands of cameras but systematically I return to the Leica which unfortunately always has a high price but as far as everyday life and handling are concerned (Leica Q3-Leica Q3 43) and in particular the image quality has no comparison
