Advertisement Posted June 14, 2023 Posted June 14, 2023 Hi thrang, Take a look here Leica Q3 Waitlist/Stock/Shipment. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
SantaFeSam Posted June 14, 2023 Share #222 Posted June 14, 2023 I've been entertaining myself while I wait for my Q3 by buying the other cameras I've thought about over the last 6 months and trying them out... For context, I have a Q2M and had an M11 (sold it a couple of weeks ago) Got a Fuji GFX100S. Nice camera, but I didn't like the way it felt in my hands, and it seemed like the focus was always a bit off. So I sent it back. Then I got a Sony a7R V. Insane technological masterpiece. The most incredible AF system I've ever encountered. Everything about this camera is incredible. But the photos feel clinical-- like they have no soul. I ordered an adapter to try my M glass on it, we'll see how that goes. But I have a feeling it's going to go back. Tomorrow, I have a Hasselblad X2D + 45mm F4 + M adapter coming. In my mind, this is going to be the perfect pairing for my approach-- X2D + Q3... but maybe it'll go back, too. What are you all doing to feed your impatience while waiting for your Q3?

Incessantly, and I do mean incessantly, checking my emails waiting for the nod from Leica Miami. Though come to think of it, it may be clinically more accurate to call the behavior: Obsessive Compulsive. 😂 Edited June 14, 2023 by LarsOtium 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching YouTube videos of people who already have their q3. Checking my email a little too often. Since I ordered on the 30th from b&h I should probably just forget I ordered the q3 and just let it show up when it shows up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortemd Posted June 14, 2023 Share #228 Posted June 14, 2023 Leica Q3 Aniety Disorder. Could be a thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortemd Posted June 14, 2023 Share #229 Posted June 14, 2023 Sucks. Ordered the Q3 from B&H on that fateful day (05/25) like so many others. Was hoping to take it on my trip to London and Bath Spa, but , alas, was not to be. First world problem: took my A7rV instead with the new 24-70 ( no other lenses) at twice the weight. We live in an amazing world at an amazing time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpftarheel1 Posted June 15, 2023 Share #231 Posted June 15, 2023 I happened to snag the first spot on the waitlist at Crutchfield. I emailed with their customer service to confirm my place in line. 11:27AM EST on 5/30 and they processed payment yesterday, shipping says it will arrive tomorrow. Incredible experience with Crutchfield, top notch customer service from beginning to end on the transaction. Hopefully a few others had their ticket punched with this shipping run!

Eriquinho Posted June 15, 2023 Share #232 Posted June 15, 2023 Called B&H today, after three weeks they still have no clue on when the second shipment will be received. They just told me that the manufacturer hasn’t provided an ETA yet…it seems this will be a long long wait… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarsOtium Posted June 15, 2023 Share #233 Posted June 15, 2023 Hope Leica doesn’t try to pull a price increase given their inability to deliver has created an artificial demand at the moment. Think I would pass if they did as it would irate me… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think some folks who ordered it on B&H early got the camera shipped out on the day of/day after release, but no movement since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Q2 reporter...returned it ,because it seemed more used than described bought a Q2...loved it...returned it...I cant justify the price with the new one coming any day (month) now ordered Sony A7rV to fill my time and make use of lenses I already have while I wait for this shipping notif on the Q3 My wife thinks I am insane. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
