Another great video, thanks!
Was there a lens shade on the Q2 but not on the Fuji lens?
Hello, much appreciated the content, as I own both cameras.
I also appreciated both tutorials you posted about the Q3, it really helped/guided me on the way of using it. Question: do you plan to do a tutorial on the X100VI in the near future?
Kind regards, Frank
just in time, thanks!
Should have done the size comparison without the grip attachment on the Leica
Yes indeed - I never remove the grip from my Q3 :) But its obvious that also without grip the Fuji is much more compact.
I’m curious why you bought the Fuji. When do you use it? You seem to love Leica so much.
Hi!
Great review as usual.
I have several cameras and I am mainly focused on still photos not video.
However I do like to take casual short videos to record the flavour of the moment. I am not really interested in post processing these videos in F-log or other. I just want to be able to watch high quality videos on my iPad Pro with minimal changes.
Please can you advise or do a short video on best settings compatible with iPad for Q3 and X100vi.
Ipad seems very fussy about what it finds compatible!
I have Q3, X100vi for general everyday shooting and X2 100D for my serious shoots. All great cameras for different occasions.
Watched all your videos on all these cameras, very interesting and helpful, particularly the Dynamic range and Pixel binning video.
Best regards
Robert
I enjoy my ZV-1M2 because of the small size. But I carry it in a small pouch which has the Power Bank connected to the Dummy Battery inside the camera. So I have longevity of not worrying about the battery running out. I have a 1tb SD card V30 and can take 4K videos plus Photos. My Q3 is in a Think Tank Speed Changer V3.0 camera case and does the same thing except I have a 512gb V90 SD card. I have the new Dummy Battery for the Q3, Sl2-S and the SL3 whenever I get a hold of one. I shoot more with the Q3 becaused of the 60 megapixels compared to the 20mp of the Sony ZV-1M2. I could care less what size of the sensor it is because if it is good quality in photos and video and good for low light performance than I will use it. I do car logging and traveling more since I retired from the US Postal Service and Loving it. Cheers!
I watched your Q3 manual videos while waiting to receive the camera.
Great video and explanation.
I had a prior version of the X100 (the F), man that was a great camera, when I look at the photos now I am still amazed about the results of that 1300 euro camera at that time.
The OVF is a great feature and for people who want to enter the Leica M system a great way to get the "rangefinder" like experience.
For me it was the bridge to the Leica Q cameras, Q-P and now the Q3 and of course the output is much better but the price is also 4x as much.
Never the less I would still be happy shooting a X100 now if I had no other choices.
Both cameras are the pinnacle of their brands.
And let's be honest, who is shooting video with those cameras, IMO they could have left it out.
Excellent video Math.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks RS, appreciate your kind feedback. And fully agree on video, I almost never use video on my Q3! Have a great Sunday.
@@mathphotographer Still use your Q3 explanation videos for setups I don't use often, beats the instruction pdf 😃
@@RS-Amsterdam Many thanks, these three tutorials for the Q3 took me quite some effort but if people enjoy the content its worth the extra mile :)
I have this Leica Q3, I love it and I will keep it for the rest of my life. :)
Focus Bracketing enthusiast here (waiting for that feature in Leica Q3 patiently) - please if you can do that video I would appreciate it!
Great - the video is actually almost done on focus stacking, will post coming Saturday.
Thanks fornthe comparison. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to the bracketing video.
Also. Fuji should start to implement weather sealing. This camera in particular should be used just dry conditions. Buying the Accessoires is of course more lucrative for Fuji.
Totally agree! Thanks for your feedback, Eugen. And thanks for giving the camera to me for three weeks, I really enjoyed playing with it!
@@mathphotographer Always!
Other than lens the Fuji is everything I was hoping Leica would put in a CL2. ✌️ out
Peace out :)
Thank you for posting. Very informative in addressing the major differences between the two cameras. The one change I would recommend would be when comparing their relative size. A more fair comparison could have been done if you removed the after market grip from the Q3. Granted the Q3 is still easily a bigger camera, but the height between the two would be more comparable. Ultimately, you get more value with the Fuji (rightly so). Yet, at least in the USA/B&H/Adorama, the Q3 is still in backorder almost a year after being released. Why are customers still wanting the Leica? 😃
Agree, and also the lens hood.
Agree with you both. I am so much used to never take the grip off my Q3 that I simply forgot. However, the size difference would be visible also without grip and lens hood.
En France et je pense en Europe, le Leica est disponible partout à la vente...aucune rupture de stock, contrairement aux X100V et X100VI. J'ai eu le Q3 entre les mains.... même s'il respire la qualité, il est énorme, rien à voir avec un X100VI.
@@user-or6tz1et4v Good to know. Here in the states it is still in backorder status, specially with the big retailers like B&H and Adorama. Tough to look at all the smaller dealers, but last time I checked with Leica-Miami (earlier today), they are still on back order. Interesting how market availability varies. I wonder how it is in Asia/Australia?
One more great test!... One day it
Would intéresting To test the fuji
With the 28mm optical complement
Agree and many thanks for your positive feedback.
What is interesting is that you are comparing 2 high quality cases, with recent technologies and TOP materials and construction. Certainly the Leica is more high-end, but the X100VI is a very serious competitor.
I chose the X100VI (which I have had since the beginning of March) for its compactness (it fits in my jacket pockets) and its weight (and its price!). The X100VI's dials (aperture, speed, ISO, exposure) are a huge plus compared to other cameras.
Concerning the negative points, the lack of original rain resistance is a shame because this requires adding an optical complement and therefore 6mm more on the lens.
The X100VI's menus aren't as easy to use as the Leica's, which are simple, but the body is fully customizable.
If I had had 6,000 euros to spend I would have only bought the X100VI because the Q3 is too big. If I had a lot more money to spend I would have bought both! 🙂
Thanks for sharing, much appreciated.
I wish the X100VI comes with a 18mm (28mm in FF). That is my personal preference. Thanks for the video!
It is possible to buy two adapters, for the X100, one makes it 28mm f2 and the other 50mm f2. I had both for the X100V, I used the 28mm most of the time, however they are quite large and changes the balance of the camera. I never used the 50mm adapter because it was too big. They screw into the filter threads. I found the photos had a little less contrast, to be expected I suppose. I used the back button focus technique and therefore cannot comment on the impact to autofocus.
Why you have the grip on for this comparison?
The grip is kind of glued to my Q3 :) Never take it off. But its obvious that also without grip the Fuji is more compact :)
Can Q3, sl3 work as webcam like some Sony cameras??
Good question, never tried this.
@@mathphotographer thx for reply. Maybe you can try someday ?
@@user-ms8qg2rz5s Sure - will consider, thanks.
Looking at the cost of the Leica I just can't get past the fact that in a few years when its no longer repairable its a hugely expensive BRICK!
This is why I own X100V and Q2, but haven’t seen a reason to upgrade. Both are great but different enough in use case.
Fully agree.
Both completely unavailable with more than a year estimated wait time to get one in my market.
Indeed - that is unfortunately. Very sorry that people have to wait so long!
Q3 is available in Germany, no problem at all.
Both are quite quickly available in Luxembourg too…
I can't live with one focal length... so I sell my Q3 and go back fulltime with the X2D.
Understand - you will become very happy with your Hassy X2D :)
@@mathphotographer already for years... X1D. X2D-100c + lenses... But I tried the Q3 for fun( not for work) but only wide-angle isn't working for me.
The Leica is dearer, bigger whereas the Fuji is cheaper , smaller and easy on the eye.
If you have the budget get the Leica, it’s a no brainier.
The 28mm is my favorite field of view for street photography, but carrying the Q3 terrifies me! Every time I see someone carrying a Leica, they clutch it, making the camera's value, even more obvious!
Agree on 28mm. In order to make the Leica less eye catching, I sometimes put a small circular sticker on the Leica logo, then it is harder to recognize that this is an expensive camera :)
short episode and it's 23 minutes lol
I really do not understand whats the point of this comparison. On one side you have one of the best 28mm lenses on the market and on the other side is an average 35mm. One is fullframe, the other aps. It's an absolut useless comparison. If someone has the money to buy a Leica, a Fuji is not an option.
Thanks Andreas. I think I made it clear in the video: these two cameras are totally different. I also intentionally avoided to do an image comparison side-by-side because an APS-C sensor against a full frame sensor is a bit delicate although you will find a lot of such comparisons on RUclips. Why I did the comparison is simple: because people ask for it in the same way as many people asked for a comparison of the Leica SL3 vs Hasseblad X2D, kind of same story :) I so far refused to do the latter mentioned but might nevertheless consider since it is interesting and fun too.
Sorry, do not agree, Andreas. The Leica has a tad better IQ, but is uncomfortly heavy and less fun to use than the Fuji.
The Fuji lens has around 20 mpix resolving power. You can take better pictures with an iPhone 15 pro.
€6000 versus €1800 ................................. get the Fuji and let WhiteWall do the printings
Just use your phone to take quick photos.
Great and yes, the photo is made by the photographer and not by the camera - and smartphones shoot excellent photos today :)
