Advertisement Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 Hi Anika, Take a look here I got the new Leica Q today.... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Per P. Posted September 21, 2017 Share #2 Posted September 21, 2017 Hey, I have both the M10 and the SL. No need for guilt unless we let them gather dust. Let's put them to good use :-) And you have my respect for using the Q - I always found 28mm a very challenging focal length. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrayson3 Posted September 21, 2017 Share #3 Posted September 21, 2017 The Q is mind-bogglingly good. Only the S gives me more pleasing images, or the SL with the long zoom if I need the reach. Stunning lens. Fabulous macro mode. Enjoy! --Matt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reynoldsyoung Posted September 22, 2017 Share #4 Posted September 22, 2017 Congrats....enjoy! And, enjoy you will!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucena Posted September 22, 2017 Share #5 Posted September 22, 2017 I got both, Q and M10. Very happy about both, for me they are complementary. Enjoy without guilt! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marac Posted September 22, 2017 Share #6 Posted September 22, 2017 Q & SL here, the SL does have a thin coating of dust since I got the Q ... It is fabulous, enjoy it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Q Posted September 22, 2017 Share #7 Posted September 22, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Q and M10 here also. Fantastic combo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoothlander Posted September 22, 2017 Share #8 Posted September 22, 2017 Q first...enjoyed it so much I purchased an M240...love them both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anika Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share #9 Posted September 23, 2017 I guess the Q will be my everyday camera and the M10 just for the moments, I really want to be "more" creative. I intend to get the new Summicron 35mm for my M10, so it will give me 50 Summilux with 35 Summicron and the Q will bring the 28mm and 35mm (crop) plus video into the set.

I feel guilty about the M10 I also have, but the new sister is just so much fun to use :-) It is so good, I am at this very moment selling all my Fujinon lenses (6) and X-E2 on the "bay" and from now on will solely shoot with the Q ('til I get my hands on an M10...Lol!).

robgo2 Posted September 23, 2017 Share #12 Posted September 23, 2017 The Q was my introduction to Leica world. The overall design, workmanship and, of course, IQ blew me away. Within a short period of time, I acquired an SL, which is similarly mind-blowing. I was formerly a Sony user and was generally satisfied with my kit. I have since sold my RX1 and have not touched my trusty A7ii. Fortuitously, I had been using mostly adapted M-mount lenses on that camera, so so a major investment in lenses for the SL will not be necessary. Or perhaps it wasn't fortuitous, and the camera gods intended all along for me to end up with Leica. Rob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anika Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share #17 Posted September 28, 2017 I made my Q perfect with new flash SF40 - all I need now is a nice strap :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighlandK Posted September 28, 2017 Share #18 Posted September 28, 2017 I made my Q perfect with new flash SF40 - all I need now is a nice strap :-) ... and more than plenty of advice and suggestions on that in various topics on this forum! I guess it depends upon your style of photography but I got the SF40 early on and have rarely used it as the available light shots with the Q are so good.

Anika Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share #19 Posted September 28, 2017 tha bad part is: I would like to keep my Leica M10, no idea why.... just can not part with it, strange, isn't it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris O Posted September 29, 2017 Share #20 Posted September 29, 2017 I got my Q about 2 months ago. I have to admit that after shooting with Canon for the last 10 years I was really uneasy with the Q for the first couple of weeks. Until I fell in love with it. It's so easy to use, so natural, the image quality, it's just spectacular. The 28 focal length... well, I would rather a 35, but it still doesn't take much to get used to.
