    If you have the money, buy the Q3 and don't think about any other compact camera. If you don't have the money, buy the x100VI and think about the Q3 until you have the money for it. Currently I don't have to think about any other camera.

      Hm…not as easy as you made it to be, Q3 not compact at all for one and also Fuji’s film emulation is nice if one just shoots JPEGs and post on online.
      But if one doesn’t care about the size and wants even more resolution to play with then yes, I would go for the Q.

      @@Phat-rj3jo Yes, that's right, I didn't want to say with the post that the X100VI is a bad camera and that there are many people who prefer the Fucji precisely because of its even more compact size and the film simulations. I own a Sony a7IV with several GM lenses and the Q3 is compact compared to the system and gives me the feeling that I still have a camera with me that gives me at least the same image quality.

    Excellent comparison and review. Much appreciate sharing the files for comparison. Looking at the urban street crossing view, the detail and the real life presentation of the Leica Q3 is almost mindblowing, whereas the Fujifilm X100VI looks somewhat bland in comparison, although the Fujifilm did well. However, I notice the file size of the Leica DNG is almost twice (!) that of the RAF-file from the X100VI. I was fortunate to get my Fujifilm X100VI from the first batch of deliveries, and confess to being a "pixel peeper" and seriously consider selling the Fujifilm and save up for buying the Leica Q3. My favorite combo would be a Ricoh GRIIIx for ultimate portability paired with the Leica Q3. Although I have sold my Ricoh GRIIIx, I still miss it as the pictures were super sharp. The camera was however lacking in low light for my type of photography.
    Cheers and once again, cudos for your great review.

    Q3 is a great camera and should really beat this fuji anyway. 2 things to consider: Leica service/repair is beyond bad in US, everything has to go to Germany, if something goes wrong, you wont have a camera for 2-3 months, I dont understand why they cant have a repair shop in the US (they have several stores?) also: Fuji raw files are just better in capture 1, color, noise and especially detail. this has been an ongoing story and adobe has come a long way but Capture 1 is still better...for Fuji files!

    Hey Alex good video. I know that takes a ton of time to put these together. I did notice that many of the 100VI photos that where the softest are at F2. I do not think that 23mm lens resolves the 40MP all the way. I shoot an xt-5 and I have a few lenses that have this soft glow to them that others do not. However on my XT3 they have better clarity, contrast and dare I say sharpness. It might be a closer comparison all the way through if you left them both on f2.8. However at that point it makes the Q3 that much more attractive being just as sharp at 1.7 as the VI is at 2.8. I would love to get a Q3 just to try side by side with my XT-5 and 18mm f1.4 I think that would be really neat to see. I would not expect the XT-5 to win however I do not see how you could improve on it. But I have never shot a Q3.

    @BigOlson 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I don’t understand why Alex keeps saying the Leica has higher resolution in these crops. I believe the size of a given subject is almost identical between the cameras due to the combination of pixel pitch and focal length yielding arc seconds/pixel that are within 2%. This means they should behave identically at 1 pixel = 1 pixel 100% zoom, the Leica just has way more field of view.

  • @MitchWebb94
    @MitchWebb94 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think the portraits you are often shooting at F2, whereas other scenes (like 13:44) you are stopping down slightly - the lens on the Fuji is quite soft across the image at F2, but improves massively for F2.8 basically all the way to F8.
    Saying that, fuji's can often say they've got eye focus but seem to focus either just behind or just in front of the eye - they definitely need to improve it with firmware

That said, I don't see why they cannot add a 35mm lens version. Lens size might even be smaller. There are thousands of us out there asking for this. Bag the James Bond or "reporter" versions (really.....?) and add a 35mm lens.

    I have the Q3. But I did miss my X100V. So I got a X100VI since release date. After a few days with it I returned it. To me theres no comparison. I sent the X100VI back. I found the autofocus no different than the X100V. I was disappointed that they rushed this camera out because of the demand. Made in China ( and yes this does make a difference), same lens, slow autofocus, and the same stupid battery. Don’t get me wrong it’s a great camera and I love fuji colours. But get a XT5 with a small prime and it’s pretty much same weight after you add a thumb grip and hand grip. Trust me I know because I weighed everything. The Q3 definitely wins in my opinion. On another note I have a GRIIIx coming in a few days to try. Cheers.

      The release of the X100VI was not rushed, on the contrary... more time passed between the V and the VI than between previous versions.
      The X100VI is made in China like almost all Apple products for over 20 years and no one is going to tell you that Apple is of poor quality.
      You are on beliefs.
      I had the X-T5 and the X-S20, which didn't fit in my jacket pockets (with pancake lenses) unlike the X100VI.
      I don't need a handle or thumb rest on the X100VI I just added a Smallrig arca swiss base that I modified (cut) to no longer have the handle which is useless.
      As for the GRIII I kept it for 1 week, for me it's really a scam, the Ricoh is way too expensive for what it offers.

Q3 is good but the image quality or character are not different from any brnads of Japanese camera. I watched your last video comparing Q3 and Sony A7Cr and I totally agree. It is not like M. Leica M is special and outstanding and I am willing to pay for it. So I decided to sell Q3 after 4 months. And I save that amount of money to buy a new M mount lense and Fuji X100VI and still have chang for my Japan trip last month.. Now I have Fuji X100VI as my everyday camera. It is very good enough to go with me everywhere for daily life photography and memory. And I will take M11 when I wan to take photo seriously. Again thank you so much for nice video.
