Which would you choose for everyday carry/street/travel?
Guest posted a topic in Leica Q3 / Leica Q2 / Leica Q
I have been considering a Q2 for everyday carry/street/travel to supplement my SL2 (which is large and heavy for those purposes). But I’ve found a used Monochrom M (Type 246) in great condition with extra battery, et al, in stock for $3,995ish. Couple that with a Voigtlander Nokton 50mm or 35mm f/1.2 Aspherical and you’ve got a compact fast M combo for the same price as the Q2 - I am aware of the spec differences. I owned an M7 years ago which I dearly loved (I still have an R8 for film), I prefer black & white, I don’t mind manual focus (again the R8 and the fact that this won’t be an action camera), and I have the SL2 (which I love) and lenses for more purposeful photography - color, ultimate resolution (large files), portraits, landscapes, wildlife, action, all weather. I’m thinking the M could give me that different Rangefinder experience and not be just a mini SL2 (although there is a lot to do said for that). I have never used a Q2 but as noted I did have an M7. Given my preferences, intended use, likes and dislikes which would you get? No pressure. 😉 -
