I fell into the Leica trap
For your situation I'd sum it up in this way from best to worst scenario:Q2 -> SL2-S -> MThe Q is a wonderful camera which will certainly make you considering an M in future.The SL line is a great middle ground where you can both use expensive anc cheap lenses from various manufacturers. Don't disre

Ereditati da mio papà ,adoro il B/N ma vorrei anche una a colori cosa prendere ? Le ottiche le tengo tutte o no?
Per il colore ti suggerisco un corpo COMPLETAMENTE diverso, tipo una Leica SL2-S.Saprebbe valorizzare ciascuna di quelle ottiche, soprattutto le più lunghe e luminose.MAI vendere le ottiche!!!Prima o poi te ne pentiresti, garantito.

SL2S vs SL3 for M adaption
The 3 and the m11 will render nearly identically, it’s the same sensor, along with the Q3 series. This sensor is also found in Sony’s 60 megapixel offerings. If you like it on your M, you’ll love it on the SL3. I don’t buy into a sensor rendering something “more” or “less” better, it all has to do w

Exploring the light
sell it and never come back to it.I had Leica M10, M10R, Q, Q2, Q3, Q343 and SL2S (x2) and never even close they were up to performance of X1D II, I am not even going to compare them with X2D II. I wish I was smarter and never even tried Leica, they are same full frame as other manufacturers with di

what are your guys opinion on the leica q 116?
Great camera. I had one, added an SL2–S, then traded both on a Q3. The Typ 116 is definitely in “gateway drug” territory. Downside: the 28mm lens is limiting, especially if you’re coming from interchangeable lens cameras. Upside: that 28mm lens is also the finest optic I’ve shot with. It’s astoundin

Help me choose a camera please
Don't agree with the comment above, (and capable of proving) have been using the Sony a7 m1 for 8 years exclusively with manual vintage lenses, (some of yours too). Until last year when I switched to Leica SL2-S (also using vintage lenses, from Leica, japanese or german). Haven't experienced any maj

Will the Leica SL3P be more ”professional” than the SL3 and SL3S
I'm lensing my SL2s with M glass, so the thinner filter stack of the Leica is important to me. I shoot a lot wides, where smearing is worst.

Leica D-Lux 8, M240, M8, M10, Q? - Nepal/Himalaya visit
Have you thought about something from the SL line? I know they tend to be looked at as Leica's red headed stepchild around here but they are great cameras if you are dead set on buying a Leica. They will be a bit larger and heavier than an M or a Q but they do bring full IP54 rating for weather seal

Need buying advice for a Leica AF body.
SL2/-S would be a great match to your Q2. You’re familiar with the sensor already. ISO performance is great still IMO. The SL2s can be had for 2.5k USD and really you have your pick of the crop when it comes to lens choice to pair with your Q2! And if you wanted to get into motion, the SL2/S is a so

M lenses performance on Nikon ZF vs Leica SL2-S vs Lumix S1/5 ?
I have the SL2 and ZF. The ZF has the advantage of the Nikon manual focus green-box aid, but in all other respects I prefer the SL2 for adapting lenses. The SL2 viewfinder (and the SL2-S) is significantly better than the ZF’s (which is already decent). It is higher resolution and performance with M
