Wonderful control of exposure with that camera.

I have to admit I'm a Luddite with regards to Leica cameras. If it's not an M I tend to discount them as junk; but your photos and those of others I've seen on the Forum have made me rethink that judgment. If you want an AE/AF device the Q seems to be a marvelous choice.

Edgard, Louis & Eva - Thank you.

Paul - Thank you and

Allan - Thank you, and one can use it completely manually, completely automatically, or anything in between.  I use pretty much that entire range, depending on situation.

I like how VED gazes at us from his frame. His older self finds himself in somewhat harsh overhead light which perhaps the Q could be persuaded to moderate.
