As I wrote "wider than 28 but not quite 24. It's somewhere in between." No need to post another video about it... this has been established since the Q116 Edited November 17, 2023 by Qwertynm Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 Hi Qwertynm, Take a look here Masterful Leica Q3 Lens - It’s one of the best Leica lenses, but is it a 28mm lens?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted November 17, 2023 Share #22 Posted November 17, 2023 What is the problem to be discussed here? The optical part of the lens has an AOV of a 26 mm lens approximately, that is true, but this is only half the lens. It is a hybrid lens design, which means that the final digital correction has been considered from the beginning when designing the glass part. Separating the two design components is akin to removing one element from a fully optical lens. I read a confused perception of present-day lens design here:: "Woops, we designed a lens with distortion! Let's correct it digitally!" In reality the philosophy is: "We can design a better lens with optical means if we shift and concentrate all aberrations into distortion which is much better corrected digitally anyway" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted November 17, 2023 Share #23 Posted November 17, 2023 In six months time there'll be another YouTube video on the same subject. But people have to earn a living somehow - why not trawl the Leica Forum for snippets like this? Most viewers of the video won't realise it's old stuff. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it makes no sense to post all youtube videos that have to do with a specific camera. Youtube has a very goo search function. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ever have the chance to look at RAW images taken with the SL2-S and one of the APO Summicron SL lenses this becomes readily apparent. Even with "only" 24MP, the files appear to have a much higher effective resolution. Edited November 17, 2023 by Dr. G Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
