Thanks for your video. I am a 28, 35, and 50mm Shooter. When the Q3 43 was released, I remembered my love for the Q2, gave in to my degrading eye sight, sold my M11 and lenses, and bought a Q3 and Q3 43. The two cameras cover my most used focal lengths and I can again, enjoy focus peaking plus a great EVF (when in manual) and the autofocus. Regarding cropping I completely agree, that it won‘t do. The problem is, and many youtubers do not seem to understand is, that focal length are about field of view, but even more so about depth. Depth with a 28 is noticeably deeper than with a 43, which on the other hand has a much higher compression. Going back and forth changes nothing about this very important fact and consequences for the look of the resulting pictures.
$6000 was a lot for a camera. I was lucky to get one at the Leica dealer because the supply has always been hard to come by. I can't see buying the Q4 because I can stop up to 35, 50, 75, 90. It's one focal length. Yes you lose mega pixels but if you shoot raw you still can recover the full 60. I'm not paying $6000 more. Love my Q3. Leica holds its value and the photos keep getting better and better. Will continue to enjoy my "foot in the sand" investment in of my unbelievable Leica.
Great comparison video. I recently purchased my Q3 28mm last month, and love everything about the camera. I also have a Canon 5D mark IV, along with a full kit of Canon L-glass, that I’ve been shooting with since 2019. Most of my everyday, travel, portrait, and event shooting, is with my Canon 5D mark IV and my Canon L 24mm -70mm f2.8 or my Canon L 24mm - 105mm f3.5. So, for me, the Leica Q3 28mm (including the crop capability to 90mm) fits well into 90% of my photography interests. Adding the Q3’s 60mp full frame sensor, really seals my preference for the Leica Q3 28mm system. Now I’m seriously considering selling my entire Canon Kit, and focusing on all of my photography to be done with the Leica Q3 28mm system.
Wow! That sounds like a very reduced and easy-to-travel camera kid! If you can handle everything with only the Q3 do it! Nothing like reducing the weight we carry around.
Great video! I have been torn between the Q3 28 vs 43 to the point where I’m ready to get a Sony system with the 28-70 f2. But I really love the Leica menu and button placements and I want a versatile smaller footprint camera. I shoot mostly family and friends and having the wide angle is helpful from time to time but I think in the end the 43’s DoF wins. LR can blur but it’s just not the same actual lens bokeh.
Thanks Florian, a very nice video as a Q3 owner, I found this interesting. I believe what you did was to find a composition and first take it with the Q3 43 and then took an image from the same spot with the Q3. I think the flaw in this is that you composed for the 43 first which would naturally gives a bias for the 43. Just a thought! 😁 Well done with the channel! Using the Q3 has made me consider an M11, unfortunately nowhere in Ireland to get to try one out. Very curious to try and understand focusing with a range finder 🤨
Using a (real) rangefinder will require to relearn photography (to some degree). It is completely different and rewarding (to some). Currently, after selling my M11-P and switching to 2 Q3, I have to relearn or at least get to know again, how to use an EVF and to rely on autofocus. Very often I switch to manual, especially for street photography.
I get that... I am not sure if I was constistant with everytime with the 43 first... It was just important to me to take a picture with both from the same spot.
Finaly someone who addreses the myth of cropping as a solution to get the 43mm with a 28mm lens. Thanks for this. Pick tje Q with the FL you like the most. None can replace the other. Do not forget to meet other Leica Q owner in the new LeicaQforum. Then you will get your 5000 subscribers faster ;)
Very helpful video! I enjoyed the 43 vs 28 photo comparison. As a 28 owner I think I have come to the same conclusion that you have. Think about the 43 but keep the 28 for now!
Great Video, I owned the Q3-28 for a couple of Months, On my 1st day of going out to shoot with the Camera, I found myself walking 3.5 miles and literally taking pictures of everything, On my 2nd day of shooting, I walked 5+ Miles doing the same thing, not realizing how far I actually walked (thank you Apple Watch). I love my Q3-28, but do feel that sometimes the range is a little wide, to make a long story short, I've talked myself into an excuse for purchasing the Q3-43 which is currently on back order from B&H Camera. I can only hope that the Q3-43 is as good as the Q3-28, I'm sure that you can't go wrong with either Camera
I have Q3 and love it, its great for European towns, villages etc with narrow streets, whereas the 43 is a bit more open spaces, I almost bought one but at the last minute pulled out as I have M10 & SL2s plus lenses and it’s too much to carry around. In a perfect world theQ4 would have a 28-45 zoom! Can I wake up now. Thanks for a great channel.
For me the 28 photos seem too distant from your subjects. For my type of photography I would be cropping in at post for most of my photos. I loved your comparisons! Thank you so much!
Thanks for this. Only recently did I decide I wanted to add to my Sony RX1 (35mm)... have placed an order for the 43, but it is on back order for 2 months, so every day I debate whether to get the 28 instead (or even the M11), or stay with my 43 order. After watching this, I'm now even more torn what to do... probably the smart thing to do is just keep using the RX1... but I have an itch to buy another camera after 12 years. When I first got the RX1 the 35mm focal length felt very wide to me, but after all these years I am pretty comfortable with it. Option B, get the 43 now and hope the Q4 is a 28mm APO Summicron, then get that.
@@walkingmanvideo9455 Understood. I'm attracted to the portrait bokeh of the 43. In 12 years, I don't recall a situation with my 35mm focal length where I told myself I really wish I had a wider view. I almost always found myself walking closer.
Nice comparison. Worth mentioning that you can crop the 28mm f/1.7 to a 43mm f/2.6 equivalent with 23 Megapixels. Perspective is exactly the same when you don’t change the distance to your subject. So if the larger depth of field does not bother you and 23 MPx are enough, just enjoy your 28mm, which is more universal.
I have a Q3 28 that I got before the Q3 43 hit the market. However, 28 mm has always been my standard lens since I walked the streets of Lund, Sweden with my then Olympus OM4 Ti and a 28 mm lens. So, I feel very much at home with the Q3 28. As a bonus, the 28 mm allows you to use a UV filter and the original lens hood at the same time :-)
Yes... I did not cover the filter issue because I thought everyone else was talking about it. But sure, I like to have a filter on as well... sometimes even a pro-mist filter.
I finally managed to get a Leica and a few months later they launch the Q3 43… My first thought was to sell some gear, go crazy and buy the Q3 43 also… But I have the Nikon Zf with the 40mm f2 and some other lenses. Then I saw a comparison between the Nikon Zf with the Q3 43 and the similarities in the outcome of both stopped my, insane, initial thoughts 😊 But the Q3 43 is still resounding in my head… Why did they do that? 😊 Why now and not a few months back? 😊 But we are right, the 28mm is far more challenging and in the end I believe it will help me better in taking photos… Keep sharing 😊
I've had my Q3 for just over 14 months now and have almost 4,000 Q3 images in my catalogue. Not once have I wished for anything longer - a few times I wished it was wider! If 28mm is too wide then you're not close enough!
Great pics for comparing, I'm in similar boat right now trying to decide if I should keep my Q3 28 (which I just purchased a couple weeks ago) or wait for the 43. I was coming to a similar conclusion as you and was also considering that I would use my other camera(s) to shoot with other focal lengths for sure. But I have also considered (as I'm able to afford it) keeping both and actually using the two for my travel bag alone. Otherwise I would take my Q3 28 with my Zf and a 50 f1 and 24-120 f4 as my full travel kit. Will you be getting the 43 and keeping both? Sounds like you might.
I probably will circle around the 43 for a few months and then at some point... if I can afford it... I will get it... ;-) but I will for sure keep my 28!
Wish they made a 35mm. Also wld love to hear more about the lux vs apo characteristics and differences in these 2 cameras. Few talk about this. Curious why they put the APO on the 43mm and luxury on the 28mm and not the reverse (one might want a faster longer lens for portraiture?)
Great video as always Florian. I think Leica want people to buy both, some photos naturally suit 28mm, others 43mm. Then when the Q4 releases it will be a 35mm as das Besten aus Allen Welten!
Not sure about that... why produce only one camera when people are willing to get two ;-) I think they for sure will keep the 28, and we will see how the 43 does... maybe they will also introduce a Q3 75 in a couple of years?
Great video. Have had the original Q, and was very satisfied, but now an M- shooter, because it’s more fun. Q cameras are fantastic but you feel more as a photographer in control when shooting a “real” Leica. Just my opinion - However, if you crop a 35 mm lens to 43 mm, what would be the factor to put on the pixel count in order to crop to the same width?
Ich finde beide Brennweiten Klasse, jede hat ihre eigene Stärke. Ich habe die Q3. 28 mm und dann von Ricoh das andere Format ☀️ in etwa. Natürlich nicht mit der fantastischen Bildqualität, aber durchaus gut 😊
Thanks Florian! I love your videos! I own a Q2 and looking to upgrade to Q3 - I just can’t decide on Q3 28 or 43 - if you were in my position, would you still go for the 28? Thanks for your insight :)
Last year... when I came from the Q2 to the Q3 I would have the choice... I probably would have taken the 43... My comparison brought me to the conclusion that I will stick with the 28 for the moment... the 43 is somehow easier... the 28 is more rewarding... at least for me…. so it is a really hard choice.
So would I. This is not a battle of two great cameras. It is a discussion about focal length. It is far more challenging to shoot at 28mm than 43, and hence, I love it. It has opened my eyes to new projects, a new way of seeing things, that would not have happened if I was shooting at 'normal'. Ten years ago, my favourite lens was the Fuji 35mm (equiv 50mm), then I progressed to the 23mm (35). Now, since moving to the original Q3, neither of those more normal focal lengths have had any use by me at all
Funny enough I also tested the Q3 43 at Leica Store Wetzlar and by this I got even happier to own the Q3 28. Both are excellent cameras and a joy to use
I think if you can afford the two it would make for an amazing travel kit. And the fact that the menus could be identical for the most part would also be great.
@@paulboskerphotography Yeah I cant buy that argument. If you really want to change, or use two focal lengths, and you crave that 60MP sensor, then buy a SL3. Carrying two bodies around for travel...... no thanks
What do you mean by „the physics“ or the „characteristics“ of a 28mm? From a physical point of view the difference is just the megapixels you loose by cropping and more depth of field like a raise in aperture by a factor of 1.54 if you simulate the 43mm on the original Q3.
@@flofroschmayer A part from the possible differences in resolution and aperture as explained the images are exactly the same. Any perceived differences are esoteric and would not stand a blind test.
Zu 6:40 habe ich eine Vermutung warum du 28mm als „besser“ empfindest. Man sieht schlicht mehr und hat das Gefühl mehr Bild zu bekommen. 43mm ist dichter dran;mehr Kompression - vielleicht schöner, anders, fühlt sich im direkten Vergleich nach „weniger Bild“ an. Das Geheimnis ist: du bist zu faul! Je mehr Weitwinkel, desto näher muss man ans Motiv ran. Je mehr Tele, desto weiter muss man raus. Ich liebe mein 20mm 1,8 auf Reisen, weil ich dort faul sein kann und immer alles einfange. Für kreative Ergebnisse muss ich sehr bewusst dicht ran oder weit weg. Probier mal folgendes aus: Fotografier einen identischen Bildausschnitt, indem du dichter oder näher mit der einen oder anderen Q ranmusst. Dann kannst du auch den echten Charakter vergleichen. ICC ist übrigens auch auf meiner Liste.
Happiness in Your Own Backyard! One question - So many reviewers of both the 28 and the 43 devote lots of discussion to the in-camera crop modes, yet these are photographers who do not use JPEGs. The feature seems irrelevant for those who focus on DNG files, no?
@Spearmanmark Yes, if you use DNG it is irrelevant... at least for me. You can use it as preview, but of course you will have the full 43mm or 28mm to crop what you like in Lightroom.
The 28 can do most of what the 43 does, except at the furthest telelens crop (75-135) but the 43 simply cannot do what the 28 does. Simple fact that would guide my choice if I could afford either. And, no, carrying both would defeat the whole purpose…😊

Happiness in Your Own Backyard! One question - So many reviewers of both the 28 and the 43 devote lots of discussion to the in-camera crop modes, yet these are photographers who do not use JPEGs. The feature seems irrelevant for those who focus on DNG files, no?
No, but the big sensor means you can crop big time in LR. That's the beauty of a 60meg sensor
@@kenn6592 of course, yes. In post.
@Spearmanmark Yes, if you use DNG it is irrelevant... at least for me. You can use it as preview, but of course you will have the full 43mm or 28mm to crop what you like in Lightroom.
You missed a major point, skin tones in Raw are different 28mm is more yellowish skin tone and 43mm is more natural.
Okay. Did not make skin tone comparison. Thanks for the the info!
The 28 can do most of what the 43 does, except at the furthest telelens crop (75-135) but the 43 simply cannot do what the 28 does. Simple fact that would guide my choice if I could afford either. And, no, carrying both would defeat the whole purpose…😊
Well spoken!
