Advertisement Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Hi Ericmalap, Take a look here Do you think that T and Q can be complementary?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

faxao Posted February 1, 2017 Share #3 Posted February 1, 2017 The Q is for sure complementary to my M-P240. It is a fantastic camera and I'm sure it would be a great companion for your T as well. As Matlep said, go for it no regret guaranteed ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucena Posted February 2, 2017 Share #4 Posted February 2, 2017 Same...I bought a T one year before the Q. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted February 2, 2017 Share #5 Posted February 2, 2017 I own the T with the Summicron T 23mm f/2 and Summilux TL 50mm f/1,4. And I would like to buy the Q! Is that a typo, or you really bought the huge monster 50 TL Lux to use it on the T? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle123 Posted February 2, 2017 Share #6 Posted February 2, 2017 I have both. With the T, lots of lens options....and I find easier to use and a bit more fun. The Q is terrific, way better IQ being full frame and excellent lens, faster, more of a race car I take when IQ really matters and 28mm is appropriate for the subject. Most of the time, it's too wide angle for me but have learned to like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericmalap Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted February 3, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks all of you for your posts. I'm eager to test the Q. I think I'm going to use both T and Q depending on the subject and the situation. I'm living in Paris and I imagine Q will be great for street photography.

Ericmalap Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share #8 Posted February 3, 2017 Is that a typo, or you really bought the huge monster 50 TL Lux to use it on the T? You're right. It's not a TL 50 mm (maybe you thought SL 50 Lux) but the TL 35 summilux that I use, which is a 50mm equivalent on the T (APS-C). It's quite big but a really good lens. The TL 23 is a 35mm equivalent . So, with the Q and T lenses, I'll be able to shoot 28, 35 or 50mm which is a good range for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericmalap Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share #9 Posted February 3, 2017 Same...I bought a T one year before the Q. Are you still using both camera ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted February 3, 2017 Share #10 Posted February 3, 2017 You're right.

The TL 23 is a 35mm equivalent . So, with the Q and T lenses, I'll be able to shoot 28, 35 or 50mm which is a good range for me. Right I thought about the SL Lux that is far to big for my taste. I am still looking for a companion for my Q, something around 55-75mm but I can`t find the right one. Tried the T, the Pro2 and the A7II without getting hooked. The X1D with 90mm is the only one I would consider but 12k € for the set is a bit to much for my budget.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The X1d should be a great camera once is available, but will be larger and much slower for different type photography. I am also considering the Fuji GFX, slightly cheaper, as an alternative but leaning towards the Hasselblad simply because of the ergonomics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom0511 Posted February 3, 2017 Share #12 Posted February 3, 2017 I have the M and T system, bought a Q and found it nice but too much overlap with the T ad M so I sold the Q and dont miss it. I dont find the Q IQ worlds better than the T, and I find the 28mm FOV of the Q quite limiting, fun at the beginning but after some time... I also find 28mm not a focal lengths where you necessarly need a fast lens. So for me a T with the 18-56 + the 23 and/or 35 mm prime is more usefull.

Batman57 Posted February 3, 2017 Share #13 Posted February 3, 2017 I have the Q as prime top camera and a T with 11-23 and 60 macro. They are complementary, the 60 macro is terrific, even on an APS-C sensor. It is like a 90mm, great also for landscapes and portraits. I love the Q, love to go around with it... but the T has a super wide-angle and a 60 mm which are sometime useful. However, these 2 cameras and 3 lenses are by far lighter then my previous 1DX and 5D Canon bodies with 4 lenses.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also considering the Fuji GFX, slightly cheaper, as an alternative but leaning towards the Hasselblad simply because of the ergonomics. From my limited experience with the M I found the rangefinder works great for 28/35, ok for 50 and it is more or less useless for 75-90 and on top of that the fact that you start with 70-100 cm minimum focus distance keeps me away from that beauty. Still I would buy a 50+mm Q on the day of release, as I did with the 28 Q, but Leica told me that will not happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
