Leica Q or M 262

If you had to choose, which would you prefer. I have to make a decision. Sell the Q and buy a 262 for use with my older 35mm cron, older 50 lux, and 28 f/1.9 voigtlander and 90 tele elmirit. I can use all this glass with a Sony but realize it isn’t the same.

The Q is special but the 28 fixed has been a challenge. I’m just not sure if the 262 will scratch the itch and more importantly whether I should keep the Q and be happy. I would be hard pressed to find another Q in this condition. I have been using a x100f for carry around, but files don’t match the Q.

Anything special about the images out of the 262? Had a M8 and M9 and each rendered beautifully, just can’t handle the quirks of each any longer.

Same sensor as the M240?

Thanks all!

I'm not going to help: I've both  :-)   I usually carry both cameras, keeping a 75mm cron on the M.   When space is tight I leave the Q at home and instead add a 35mm lens for use on the M. 

AFAIK the 262 is a 240 less live view (and video) so you only get the classic center weighted metering mode.
