sdk Posted March 7, 2019 Share #21 Posted March 7, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm hoping the new sensor gets adapted for the Leica M and SL systems. The reason I never gave into the temptation to get an M10 or M10-P was that they have no more resolution than my M-P, but a 47 MP M11-P would probably get me to upgrade.

Advertisement Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Hi sdk, Take a look here Jono Slack: Leica Q2 Review. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jbripley Posted March 8, 2019 Share #22 Posted March 8, 2019 My biggest surprise in the review is his mention of people not using profiles? Is that really true? I usually have at least 3 profiles defined: Aperture priority: centre focus, weighted exposure, auto iso 3200, AF-S Street: face / wide focus, minimum shutter speed 1/125, higher auto iso Tripod: OIS off, one click Fotos app connect for remote shutter 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancook Posted March 8, 2019 Share #23 Posted March 8, 2019 I don't use profiles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucy63 Posted March 8, 2019 Share #24 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) I really want to like this camera, it ticks all my boxes except one..I want an easy to use, fast, super quality camera. The Sony-ish colour science is the deal breaker every time I think about buying. It's a shame. Edited March 8, 2019 by lucy63 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiorgioBaruffi Posted March 8, 2019 Share #26 Posted March 8, 2019 Wow... great review, thanks! I own the Q2 and she is driving me crazy on one thing, I usually move my focus point, and with all other cameras, with the pressure of the central button, the focus point returns to center, here instead I switch to the video mode! I hate this feature... Hope that someone can fix this. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pick mine up tomorrow Can you confirm the base ISO is 100 (not 50)? Other reviewers seem to say it is 50. HI There Ian Well, I don’t know for certain, and I’m not sure if I could say if I did. BUT Auto ISO uses 100 as the lowest auto, which suggests to me that 50 is probably a pull . All the best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the weatherproofing goes, do you think it would survive a drenching from a wave at sea, for example? Hi Nigel I’m not certain, but I would certainly thing so - it survived many hours in the rain in China without effect. Best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonoslack Posted March 8, 2019 Share #30 Posted March 8, 2019 Just a note to say thank you for all the kind words. It makes it feel really worthwhile writing this stuff if people enjoy it . . And say so! Thank You! 17 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramarren Posted March 8, 2019 Share #32 Posted March 8, 2019 LOL ... As I read Jono's review again, this is throbbing through my head: "I do not need another camera. I do not need another camera.

Best somewhere on Leica Rumors someone described the technical parameters of the weather proofing (same as the SL), something like (and I can't remember exactly) moderate rain at a 15 degree angle for x amount of minutes.... wish I could find it.

All the best [ I don't have a Q2 yet, so all I can do is read the manual 🙂 ] The manual says (p 151): - Auto ISO range is 200 - 50000 (Q's lowest Auto ISO is 100) - Manual ISO range 50 - 50000 DPR claims that ISO 50 is native ISO.

It's an IP52, if I remember correctly - http://www.dsmt.com/resources/ip-rating-chart/ FYI, it's actually printed on the bottom of the camera.
