Richard K Posted July 15, 2022 Share #1 Posted July 15, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Would you find 60Mpx useful? Or would you rather have the 47 Mpx but a 35 or 50 mm lens? How about a tilt screen? Other thoughts? 47 Mpx with a 35 or 50 Cron would get me to part with some money… 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 15, 2022 Posted July 15, 2022 Hi Richard K, Take a look here Q3 wish. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
clasami Posted July 15, 2022 Share #2 Posted July 15, 2022 KInd of acquired a taste for 28mm. 60MP with the 28mm would be my preferred option to make better use of the 75mm crop option. If the next sensor is 60MP at all. Higher MPs do come with limitations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fgcm Posted July 15, 2022 Share #3 Posted July 15, 2022 I would like a Q3 with a 50 lens. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SrMi Posted July 15, 2022 Share #4 Posted July 15, 2022 IMO, the 28mm is part of Q's DNA. So I would not like to see a change. I do not care about resolution as long as it is >45MP. I would like to have at least one stop better DR, which can be accomplished with a 60MP sensor (M11, a7rIV). Besides file size, larger resolutions have only advantages (IQ, better cropping possibilities, larger prints, better post-processing). A fast face detection would be nice.

jankap Posted July 15, 2022 Share #5 Posted July 15, 2022 A tilt screen is a nice feature. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to see why Leica chose 28mm, other than to cash in on cellphone use (bizarre) or a mania for 'street' photography. By and large the most popular focal lengths traditionally with Leica are 35mm or 50mm. 28mm is a very specialised focal length not suited to many subject matters. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to crop to 35mm with good quality and the added benefit of seeing what's going on outside the frame. And 50mm still delivers very good results. It is a fixed lens camera, so as wide as possible is just fine with me. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Prime Posted July 15, 2022 Share #8 Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) With the comparison to cell phone 28mm FOV it’s interesting to note that many phones offer multiple FOV lenses. Perhaps the Q3 should incorporate some optical zoom capability. Edited July 15, 2022 by Mr.Prime 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viv Posted July 15, 2022 Share #9 Posted July 15, 2022 My wish is that the launch of the Q3 be delayed as long as possible, ideally for years. Why? Because, as we all know, Leica will remotely disable all Q2 cameras, including mine, on the day of the launch. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted July 15, 2022 Share #10 Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) I’m happy with 28: 28 and 75 were my most common pairings with my M. I find 28, 35 and 50 OK in the Q2, but 75 is a tough ask at around 5mp. Push the resolution up to 90mp and you could get 10mp at 75mm.

Le Chef Posted July 15, 2022 Share #11 Posted July 15, 2022 I’m happy with my Q2’s sensor, and it’s lens. If I need a longer length then I use my CL + 55-135 lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the best proposals I ever read. Clearly this would avoid all fights here in the forum. I hope that Leica reads here. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trankster Posted July 15, 2022 Share #14 Posted July 15, 2022 35mm or 40mm for a fixed lens, USB charging and best of class dynamic range would be on my wish list. Also, 47mp is more than enough IMO. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted July 15, 2022 Share #15 Posted July 15, 2022 The Q2 is finally a camera I can love, it certainly exceeds my skills and cured my GAS. I probably won't be able to explore and master all of its possibilities before a Q3 is a reality. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also pleased with Q2's sensor and lens. However, regardless of Q2 user happiness, Leica will have to launch a Q3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M11 for me Posted July 15, 2022 Share #18 Posted July 15, 2022 considering that here its about whishes: The Q3 should be an M11 in a Q body with the fix 28mm lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Chef Posted July 15, 2022 Share #19 Posted July 15, 2022 The Q3 will have a 60MP sensor, AI, a flippy-flappy screen, and a 28mm f1.7 lens. It will contain more lightweight materials and cost 50% more than the Q2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NERICSSON Posted July 15, 2022 Share #20 Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Tri-Elmar Q with 28/35/50 would be nice, then skip all video features and add dedicated ISO wheel instead of LCD, and why not go directly to monochrome version 🙂 Edit: forgot to mention that I am happy with Q1 sensor...
