  • Today we're pitting the Sony A7CII vs the Leica Q2 vs The Fuji X100V in a photography battle in Louisville Kentucky. These are three of the most popular compact cameras, so we figured we'd put them each to the test in a head-to-head photography competition.

    Really enjoyed this video. While I’m not likely to consider the Q2 I already have an A7CII and A7CR as my smaller travel cameras and also looking at the new X100VI just announced. Admit I value the interchangeable lens feature of the Sony and the capability of their other camera bodies like the A1 and A7RV I own. I’ve become a subscriber now. Thank you and take care.

    I have two of these three cameras, so I’m going to be embarrassed if it blow it. But I think A is Fuji - film recipe is too apparent and looks like JPG resolution , B is Sony I think because the skin tones and the best image contrast with the low light conditions, C is Leica cuz it’s the Leica look. Ranking C then B then A as my favorites.🤞

    Nice video :D I wonder why the Fuji looks so milky? Just because of the filter I guess?

    • @kylemeshna
      @kylemeshna  5 месяцев назад +1

      Very well done. The Fuji is milky due to the filter and because Andrew was shooting with a film emulation recipe in jpg only, so there was no post processing done either. But generally I think the Sony (and Leica lens especially) have much better contrast rendering

  • @cabellofatto
    @cabellofatto 5 месяцев назад +3

    All are gorgeous. Great job gents. But if I had to choose, I’d say B, which, were I a betting man, I’d say is the Leica.
    I prefer the contrast and colors. I also love 24mm for portraits. (Yes, I know it’s marketed as 28, but it runs wide.)
    The 40mm compression and the recipe give the others away.

    • @kylemeshna
      @kylemeshna  5 месяцев назад +1

      Correct all around. Yeah the Q2 is definitely closer to 24-26 than 28 in actuality. But seeing them all side by side like this really makes you understand the whole “Leica look” thing doesn’t it haha

      @@stevenwaldstein2249 I'm looking for something that's smaller/more pocketable - the Canon is 2/3 the size of the Fuji. Cheaper and actually available would be plusses! I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for, needs a viewfinder, but I'll know it when I see it. But in those shots 3:09 I'd want to drag the shutter and shoot at something much slower, to let the background build up and add to the foreground that's going to be be lit and frozen with the flash.

    B looks better to me. I hope there was no editing though.
    It looks more contrasty and sharper. It looks like you can zoom in and see all the details on the bricks and on the coat.

      Also, A - Fuji, B - Leica, C - Sony
      You can tell the Fuji because the depth of field isn't as shallow as the others, nor is the bokeh as large. The Leica has that 28mm look and the Sony is composed tighter because it has the 40mm/f2.5.
      In order of preference...
      #1 - B - well-composed, well-lit, love the 28mm look, superb photographer behind the camera. Need I say more?
      #2 - C - like the 40mm on the Sony, great lighting and resolution. The tighter shots are a nice difference between the other two.
      #3 - A - eyes under lit when standing in front of the palace theater. Kind of muddies up the whites of her eyes compared to the other two. Also lots of noise/loss of detail on the palace theater sign behind her. It pains me to see that as a Fuji fanboy. There's significantly less contrast that's noticeable in the alleyway shots too, but that's probably the mist filter throwing everything off.
      How'd I do?

      The leica... ahem... camera B has the most resolution but I just loved the look and colors on camera A. Actually C is a close second and if that is a Sony then it is very good value for its price. It would probably be a better test, and a win for the Leica, if one person took all the same photos with the same composition using the 3 different cameras.
