Although at one point compact cameras routinely accepted 35mm film, full-frame compact digital cameras are very rare. The Leica Q2 has a high-resolution sensor that puts it on par with Panasonic’s flagship Lumix DC-S1R, and although it doesn’t quite match that camera’s stellar performance, it’s clear that the Q2 is capable of producing superb-quality images—so much so that it ranks in the top 10 of all the cameras we have tested, with its strongest suit being its ability to render color well.

I had thought they both had the same sensor made by Tower Jazz If so specs should have been the same

Even assuming the same sensor (and are we sure of that?), they will certainly have different processors.

Better cooling vs no cooling maybe ? 

Panasonic brand new Venus engine vs 4 years old Leica Maestro II 

Q2 only has a tweaked Maestro II : faster clock speed and memory access. The rest is the same. 

We’ll have to wait for SL2 and S3 to see a new Maestro III
