I have a good face for radio! 🙂 Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Rob, I love the photo. The Q2M does such a nice job on the subtle tones. I like how real the image is. Your expression is serious, with depth. Tell your wife she did well. I do not own a Q2M, but I find monochrome portrait images some of the most compelling. Every wrinkle, blemish, eye twinkle tells a story of the life experience of the subject. An integral of struggle, joy, growth, sadness, aging. Your image moves me closer to buying a Q2M. Thanks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobM Posted January 31, 2021 Share #284 Posted January 31, 2021 Thanks, Leica Guy. Here's the pre-crop version. I prefer the crop, but included the following to see how much has been cropped out, yet the details are still very clear. You will love this camera! Welcome, dear visitor!

A super capable and fun camera. The crop of your photo is another example of the image quality allowing significant cropping and still delivering a sharp photo. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, in the local (New) Mexican product shop in Edinburgh! 🙂 My wife did live in New Mexico for a while, when researching Native American literature for a doctorate at Oxford University, so she knows all the myths and characters - I bought it for her one Christmas. The shop is small, and packed with Frida Kahlo mugs, tee-shirts, you name it, and cacti table lamps, wrestlers' masks, etc. My wife would happily live inside the shop! I see you live in New Mexico, Rob... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you live in New Mexico, Rob... Yes, I have lived in New Mexico for almost 44 years. Like most anglos here, I emigrated from somewhere else. My wife and I love the place and would never leave unless circumstances force us to. Curiously, I take few photos in the state, despite the fact that it is very scenic and has fabulous light. I guess it's too familiar. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Leica are just acknowledging the issue publicly. I hope they can fix this with a firmware upgrade. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought so, got mine this week. I find them complementary - the high ISO performance is something else, and I still get beautiful colour when I want it. I recently sold a lot of equipment, so fortunately it wasn't a financial hardship. If I had to choose one, I would find that very difficult. The DNG files out of the Q2M are quite flat - I need to play with the settings a bit as I really like the weak blue and selenium settings for the JPGs. I am sure that I can easily achieve the same results using Capture One, but I really like the idea of having to do next to no processing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giguchan Posted April 9, 2021 Share #300 Posted April 9, 2021 I wondered the same thing.. and have often wondered if i would be considered an idiot if i had 2 of the "almost same " camera sitting on the Desk. Careful thought needed to be exercised here.. Not like the previous poster.. I had no extra equipment to sell to cushion the blow(keep in mind i had already purchased the Q2 almost one year earlier to the month)I tacked on some extra overtime at work and then made a decision. I still have to shoot a lot more with it to make a decent comparison..The mail thing is that the Filter isn't there.. which obviously make the images more vivid.. I also agree that the DNG files of the Q2M are Flat but i am learning to get around that. I can't tell you what to do. I can tell you that i made the decision and glad that i did!
