Q2 F-Stop: 1 f-stop divergence between adjustment ring and the display in the viewfinder

Q2 f-stop: Does anyone know the phenomenon on their Q2: the display in the viewfinder deviates by half a stop from the setting on the adjustment ring.
Setting f=8 on the ring, display f=10 in the viewfinder.
The camera has been reset before to be on the safe side.

I'd recommend to contact Leica service or your local dealer. I did a test on my Q2 setting f=8 on the ring, display f=8.0 in the viewfinder. It might be something wrong with your Q2.

Set aperture is only accurate at infinity focus. At shorter focus distance the actual aperture gets smaller.

Sounds plausible. However, I followed tbfins advice and went to the Leica store.  After comparing it with a camera from the exhibition, it was sent in. Six weeks estimated processing time - this is going to be really hard. Just cold turkey.
