m9photo Posted July 15, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 15, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) For you guys that own both, what is your percentage and quality time spent on both whenever you are out shooting pics? is it equal of 50/50, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40 etc?

Advertisement Posted July 15, 2019 Posted July 15, 2019 Hi m9photo, Take a look here SL and Q combo. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
antigallican Posted July 15, 2019 Share #2 Posted July 15, 2019 They are just very different. The Q is what I have with me whether I intend to take pictures or not. The SL I use in the studio or if I'm off to take a particular picture. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KariP Posted July 15, 2019 Share #3 Posted July 15, 2019 The Q is my28mm lens. On SL I have Summilux-SL 50mm, other SL Apo-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm (or 18mm or 90mm M lens). So, it’s like asking how many pictures I take on each focal length (or spend time taking). Im carrying the combination I see fit to what I’m expecting on the situation. Sometimes I just go with SL+24-90 or Q and SL+Summilux-M 50mm (lighter, smaller). I wouldn’t consider owning a 28mm M or SL lens. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedro Posted July 15, 2019 Share #4 Posted July 15, 2019 the Q2 is a good companion for the SL, same batteries and good overall weight. I normally match it with the SL and 75 cron 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted July 15, 2019 Share #5 Posted July 15, 2019 My time is split among three cameras at present. Hasselblad X1D: Anything contemplative where I don’t need to worry about weight SL: Anything with any motion to speak of Q2: Travel, street, family, casual, and more contemplative photos where the weight of the X1D is a hassle. I’d say 50% is the X1D, 30% is the Q2, and 20% is the SL. The Q2 does complement the SL well if you want a two camera system. The big difference, obviously, is in the flexibility of the SL lenses. Zooms from 16-180, some lovely primes, and the entire world of ‘M’ mount lenses. Only real disadvantage over the Q is the obvious one of size and weight. But that’s a huge disadvantage for certain types of photography, so the Q has and will continue to have a place for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donzo98 Posted July 15, 2019 Share #6 Posted July 15, 2019 70/30 Q2 vs SL. Q2 goes everywhere. SL comes out for selected use with the Noctilux, 16-35 (wide angle), 50 SL, 75 SL. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
