Leica, a German company, is taking innovation to the next level with its top compact camera called Q2. This camera has a monochrome sensor and is top among the line of Q models of cameras from this brand. It’s normal to find full-frame sensors on bigger cameras, but this small device also boasts of one that offers higher image quality. And it remains small and compact enabling you to carry it in your pocket. But its higher quality also means a higher price range; this explains why it’s found in Leica and a second company’s stores only.
One of this camera’s best features is its 47.3 CMPS full-frame sensor, which records grayscale pictures. And since it eliminates the low-pas filters and the color arrays, it can record greater detailed pictures with more dynamic range, unlike normal cameras. There are also other incredible features with this model, such as the green, yellow, and orange filters to make your experience even better.
Important Upgrades
Leica is one of the top brands in the market that produces high-quality cameras. They are famous for their high-end products and so if you’re willing to part with about $5,000 for a fixed-lens camera, then you should buy this Q2 model. It features numerous improvements from its predecessor, the 2015 Q’s, which was a popular model at the time.
But it still retains many features in the Q model, such as the full-frame sensor and more practical 28mm lens that enables you to get the perfect shot. Additionally, it has some improvements, which makes it a very competitive machine on the market. From the sensor megapixels upgrade from 24 to 47-megapixel model that offers you multiple shooting modes to keep the full-frame exposure, you can do more with the Leica Q2 camera.
The autofocus feature is now better as expected, to give you more accuracy and speed. And if you are shooting under 1/60s, then you will have an optical stabilization mode. These are some of the attractive features that make this camera a must-have for any advanced photographer. You may need to test and verify them, but this brand is authentic, and I don’t think they can cheat you out of anything.
Additionally, the body is now available in a minimalistic design and has a luxurious taste while remaining proof from weather elements. This makes it a must-have camera regardless of the weather conditions. Imagine owning a camera that you can use even in heavy rains. Many people spent over six grands for their cameras yet they cannot use it them in the rain.
