Och Elo

@kaipr I'm not in the overpriced camp, especially with how they priced the Q2. It's not far off from a solid DSLR body + quality lens, and as you see it's really hard to find an alternative with...

I think renting one first once it's available would be a good choice.  I've heard of some Leica boutiques even allowing people to rent one for a couple of hours for free although not sure if true. ...

Probably won't happen, but with more brands entering the FF mirrorless fold, I am hoping for more competition in the FF fixed lens market. The most obvious candidate seems to be Panasonic making...

Fuji X-T2 with 23mm f/2?

Is 35mm wide angle enough for you?

EDIT: Also, no weather sealing, but the most obvious alternative would be a Leica Q1. I think they will settle in at around $2500 on...

I own the Q1 and am a huge fan of fixed lens cameras. In fact for now the only cameras I own are the Q1 and the Canon G1X III.

Even as a Q1 owner, if you are looking in this space, I think a...

Just got this camera, and I was taken aback by how sharp it is, tbh. Took some pictures of my wife and she wasn't too happy with how well you could see all the details on her face.

Awesome, thanks

Thanks, yea it's not bothersome since I can just crop. So has this definitely been established as a LR issue rather than a camera issue?

Bumping because I noticed this issue immediately with my new (to me) G1X III.  Using LR6. Was a fix ever implemented? I'm guessing even if it was it wasn't pushed to LR6 and I might have to upgrade?

Definitely had IS on.

I did refocus, yes. So you are suggesting it's more of a low light focusing issue, rather than the focus shift issue these lenses have had? That would be my primary concern and would be a reason ...

Nope

I've been playing around with the lens a bit more at home and I think it might be more of an image stabilization issue. Might be as I stood there and took a string of shots, I slowly lost shot ...

This is the first time I noticed such an issue, though I"ve only had the lens a couple of days so I have to keep testing. This definitely doesn't seem like diffraction, this isn't a minor loss of ...

I took a series of photos and closed down the aperture.  Focus is on the license plate of the Corvette in the middle.  The image becomes progressively blurrier as I close down, to basically mush ...

On the one hand I don't think it's that crazily priced considering the normal price of Leicas or (as others have pointed out) even the price of a FF camera + lens these days.

OTOH, GFX 50R with...

Tired of stuff like "bokeh is overrated" or "sharpness is overrated" or "full frame is overrated". Bokeh may be overrated if you primarily shoot landscapes but sharpness may certainly not be. The ...

Agreed. As far it being too "cheap" for a Leica, the Q2 is already about 1/3 the price of a new M body and Summilux lens. I doubt going to $3000 for an older model would "cheapen" the brand anymore...

Q1 user here, I'm very happy the Q2 is out. Looks like Q1s are being dumped on ebay and prices are falling. In a weird way, I'm kinda happy about it. I always knew digital cameras depreciate, but...

I think it comes down to this. The RP and R before it are probably good enough products to keep Canon users in the ecosystem if they have lenses. Even Canon APS-C shooters looking to upgrade to...
