It’s extraordinary how it happens in the same way almost every time (the SL is the only exception IIRC). I somehow doubt that the NDA lawyers are paying much attention. I even have a sneaking suspicion that Leica uses these kind of threads to judge the enthusiasm (or lack thereof) to tweak the final release price. 3 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olaf_ZG Posted September 3, 2024 Share #195 Posted September 3, 2024 Regarding the number 43, there will be a special Leica meeting in October this year in France, and the restaurant chosen for lunch offers specials for 43euro. This cant be coincidence, right? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's just a special edition Q3 that comes with a 43 euro meal... and Leica will charge an extra 1500 euro for it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archiver Posted September 4, 2024 Share #198 Posted September 4, 2024 Call it the QT 😉🥰 I'd be interested in a Q with 43mm f2 APO lens, it would be fun and useful for the doc/BTS and event work I do. It might even replace my M9 with Distagon 35. Well, maybe not, but it's intriguing to consider. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archiver Posted September 4, 2024 Share #199 Posted September 4, 2024 On 8/25/2024 at 9:24 PM, jaapv said: Nothing wrong with 40 mm but why not use a Summicron 40/2 C on an M or SL instead of spending something like 10.000 $ on such a Q? Autofocus and relative compactness would be the reasons why I'd choose a possible Q 43mm over a M or SL with Summicron 40. Lesser cost - as I already own a M - is why I would choose a Summicron 40 over a Q 43. And having shot with a Minolta 40/2, I remain unconvinced that it would be as optically good and useful as a Q 43. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangrossi Posted September 4, 2024 Share #200 Posted September 4, 2024 The new model will be named Leica Q3 Pro Max, with several internal storage options like 64GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. It will be available in titanium, space gray, and slate colors.🤪 2 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
