LocalHero1953 Posted March 15, 2019 Share #21 Posted March 15, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I tried the Q2 at Leica Duke St on Wednesday, compared to my CL (with 11-23 TL lens). I saw no sign that it was slower - seemed similar to me. The Q2 EVF is slightly better than the CL's. Not in apparent sharpness, size or clarity, but slightly more responsive to movement - tested by panning. There was no possibility to check its low light performance - I couldn't find a really dark space in the shop - it worked OK in the dim cubbyhole where they keep binoculars and used equipment. I went to look at it out of curiosity, and wasn't tempted by having it in the hand. It's a fine unit, but I have no need for a single FL camera.

Leica Guy Posted March 15, 2019 Share #22 Posted March 15, 2019 I read somewhere lthat the Q measured AF in good light at 0.2 sec. In equal light the Q2 measured 0.1 sec. I don’t remember exactly where I read that. I’ve pretty much read all I can about the Q2. I expect DP Review will publish the AF performance when they do their full review. I’ve used the Q for the past 3+ years and have no complaints about AF. I don’t use it for video. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhimelfarb@hotmail.com Posted August 8, 2019 Share #23 Posted August 8, 2019 I don't see this answered yet so I will ask it. I am a new Leica owner and my first is the Q2. What are some suggestions for auto-focus in the VIDEO mode? Currently I have been tapping the shutter button half way as I shoot to re-focus. I know that can't be the only way! Thanks.
