Orguy Posted May 12, 2019 Share #1 Posted May 12, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I would like owners to give an update on the QA of the new Q2. I have a Q and am debating the upgrade. I've read a number of complaints scattered throughout the threads of dust inside the viewfinder, finish issues (chipping paint) and others. This gives me pause. Are these extremely rare problems or has the QA really slipped? Should I wait 6 months or so for kinks to be worked out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Hi Orguy, Take a look here Quality of the Q2?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Leica Guy Posted May 12, 2019 Share #2 Posted May 12, 2019 Owned Q2 for 48 hours. Shot several hundred images. Still learning the camera. Zero defects. Very happy with it so far. I upgraded from a Q which I had for over 3 years. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancook Posted May 12, 2019 Share #3 Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) I received mine the day after it was officially announced It has had considerable use, including professional, the body is still free from scratch. I do not use any case or protectors, I don't typically put the camera in a bag either. It's either on my desk, in the car or I'm carrying it. I'm not expecting the paint work to remain so pristine forever, both Q I had before exhibited wear of paint work as time wore on.

Josh bear Posted May 13, 2019 Share #5 Posted May 13, 2019 5 full days out with it. got it a few days after launch. All good no defects apart from the super continuous speed issue I flagged in the other thread. I had the original Q since launch week and loved it but do not regret the upgrade. Love the Q2.

Futurepark Posted May 13, 2019 Share #7 Posted May 13, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) Got mine. Dirt inside the viewfinder. Leicas solution? Mail it back to Germany for 4 week turnaround. Not happy. Adorama has stepped in and has promised to mail me a replacement unit once they receive new stock. Other than that, camera is wonderful.
