Nice review 🎉
Cool!
Thanks Mike that means a lot to me 😉
I enjoyed your Leica Q3 video review ' just one excellent camera... enjoy.
Thank you so much Mike 😀 I'm glad you enjoyed it. Atb Tom
I used a Sinar 8x10 and loved it, the 2 point focus was a brilliant design.
Yeah it's a wonderful camera, and I miss my Sinar Norma 4x5" 😉 Tom
Hi, do get a Leica Thumbs Up for your Q3, it's very comfortable.
Have great fun with your Leica camera, it's an amazing tool with a wonderful lens.
I bought both thumb and hand grip and returned them both. The thumb fits fine on the built-in thumb rest. I like the slimness and feel of the body as is. It’s already heavy so I prefer mine minimalist.
Thanks for your advise 👍 and I have one on it's way. 😉Tom
I’m a Leica M user and thought the Q3 would be fine to use. After a few months, I realised that the fixed 28mm was too limiting and sold it. Most of my photos are taken using a 50mm; yes, you can take a photo with the Q3 and heavily crop it but it just wasn’t for me.
I undersand ... but Iv'e come to love the 28 mm ...it challenge my creativity, and make me look different on my motives. Thanks for your feedback, that means a lot to me. Tom
To an extent I agree. 28mm is very limiting and although the crop options partly mitigate the limitation, give me a 35mm or 40mm lens any day. However, in most situations I can cope fine with 28 [actually nearer 24mm field of view with this lens] but I chose my camera according to what I think I’ll need that day and half the time it will not be the Leica Q.
Thats fine ☺ and I get it...it's just a challenge I like 👍
I think if Leica makes a "Q"-model with Leica M-mount, an excellent joystick and a built-in stabilizer in the Camera, then it will be close to a perfect Camera.
Yeah you could be right...but the Q has a build in stabilizer in the lens... Tom
@@MyLeicaQnivers I know, but you cannot change the Lens with another Lens on the Q3, so not a Camera for me.
I understand !
Excellent review - but I think I'l stick with film
Thanks ... and I know what you mean... I love film too
How ironic. I sold my Leica and spent it on a Harley D. Such is life.
Ha ha yeah thats right... but nice to have a Harley 😉
They are sold at 50% of new price at my hometown.. And as new.. Wanted to buy but I keep holding on my sony
That sound unbelievable... half price on a new Leica . Where do you live ?
You probably mean used original Q and rather carelessly used Q2 models?
Yeah I guess that must be the reason. I don't think Leica will sell them at half prize anywhere.
@@hedydd2 q2 as new
@@arsulaksono881 In the UK these are selling at from £3200 to £3500 in excellent to as-new condition. The few rougher ones are selling for no less than £2800. I believe that they sold new for around £4200, so very nice ones have lost £500 to £700 in value so an average of a fifth, 20% depreciation at retail.
You bought it because it's a fad to buy overpriced cameras right now
Maybe so Tom ...
It’s not really overpriced compared to say a Canon R5 and L series lens though is it. It’s similarly priced to any other FF 60 megapixel camera with a top quality wide aperture prime lens. It’s good value in my opinion.
Thanks for your feedback, and your right about other high end cameras, and glad you also appreciate the Q3. Atb Tom
