robb Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share #335  Posted December 31, 2023 Nice image showing some of my portraits shot chest and waist high to be blown up to 8' faces inside a mobile training center for workers.  These were shot with the SL2 and 75 apo.  You can definitely count individual eyelashes from 6" away looking closely at the prints.  I was amazed at the detail from the apo lenses.  These portraits were shown earlier in this thread as individual photos.  The new 21 is a great lens.  Great matching color to the other apo's and very sharp even wide open.  Renewable Energy Learning Lab in Laredo, Texas - Leica SL2 with Super-APO-Summicron SL 21mm Asph, iso 100, 4 seconds at f 9.0 with Heliopan circular polarizer Robb Welcome, dear visitor!

robb Posted January 6, 2024 Author Share #339  Posted January 6, 2024 I got my Q-P back.  I had given it to my son but he does not really get it out for any real use.  He’s more of an iPhone gen z… so I traded him one of my rifle scopes to get it back. I’m looking forward to pairing this up with my sl2-s and a lens or two when I want to travel light.  Not sure if I might upgrade it to a Q2 or Q3 yet or not.  I wish it had the same batteries as the Q2… anyway.  It’s very small and lightweight compared to the other cameras I own and what’s out there.  I love the viewfinder in monochrom mode.  Just like my sl2 and sl2-s cameras.  Fun camera for sure.
