Ever since I bought a Q3, I get myself shooting more and more. Suddenly a fixed lens camera became my favourite. There’s something about the simplicity of the Leica, the lens, the colours and contrast of the raw files being so easy to edit, the Leica Fotos app being ridiculously good…really a mix of everything, summed up with its relatively compact body. The Qs are really special!
I enjoy the simplicity of the Leica menus/button layout and the tactile feel of a handbuilt product - it really does remove the distractions and lets you focus on the photography. I've tried so many cameras over the years - Nikon, Sony, Fuji - all great in their own right, but it's the well-thought through simplicity of the Leicas that makes the process of photography so enjoyable - and that's ultimately, as a hobbyist (i.e. not a pro earning money) is what I'm looking for.
34 photos and I absolutely love your videos. You inspire me every time you upload a new video. Thanks to you that I started taking photos again and fell in love with street photography. I would even say that I got my current job because of your videos 🙈 so just a huge thank you
Great camera, enjoy! I recently sold my only ICL camera, Sony A7C, 3 lenses and Leica Q2 to purchase a Q3. The 1st camera ever I decided to purchase new. I have not regretted that decision one minute.
i follow u couple of years and in this video u capture the greatest shoots ever... throw in trash all of your gear, Leica or Panasonic Lumix with Leica lens is for u def!!
That shot at 3:20 is incredible! Rented a Q2 a week ago (1st pro camera I’ve ever shot). And fell in love with the photos. Waiting for my Q2 Ghost 👻 edition to arrive tomorrow. Tried Fujifilm XT-5 for a week but found myself scrolling through filter options and interrupting my flow. Having the Q2 makes me want to go and shoot, can’t say that for the Fuji.
There are 34photos ! Lovely to see you went Hong Kong I will go this October, I’ve been doing photography to help companies advertise their services and product as work but also as a passion , so glad I met you multiple times in London! Would have been fun doing a vlog there
Q2 owner here. I'd recommend setting exposure compensation to -1. The camera can handle a boost to the shadows in post and it'll save your highlights 👍
The Temple shot was damn good and the edit too... After seeing that shot.. i am pretty sure.. you gonna love INDIA... Also the overall video has a dark moody edit i guess... it was good too(just some places it was very dark)
Great video and shots! I also have a Q2 and love it for its portability, lens, the way In which the images are processed and of course the quality of the camera itself. When I have to take my Sony RX10 Mark IV for landscapes out of the country, I miss my Leica but don’t want to take two cameras. Also, like you pr camera strap. Please let me know brand or website link. Thank you.
Of course! Sustainable fishing is totally fine. They catch and cook for themselves. The issue is industrial capitalism. It’s nice to see more tradition fishing / living. Thank you for taking the time to watch 🙏🏼
I love the compactness of this camera! I've tried cosplaying it with my A7C2 and a Sony 20mm but didn't really get warm with the "tiny" focal length yet (not a really cool location tho so that might change C: ) Pls correct me if I'm wrong here but for me the audio of todays video seemed a bit quiet. Have fun everyone :)
But how so not just the Fujifilm x100Vi it's cheaper and also feeling of real photography. Still yes i will also take the Q2 over the x100 but if it's about raw shooting feeling. And small / light camera it's a good other option.
I have protanopia (red colour blindness), but the colour grading on the video footage is making me feel even more colourblind for some reason. The photos all look fine though. Can't put my finger on why the video seems off to me.
There’s quite a few reds throughout the video so it might be that, I.e some of the bridges / lanterns / doors / shop fronts could be that I’ve used a warmer pallet as well instead of blue highlight tones I’m using orange. Could be a combination of all of the above. I’ll try to keep this in mind in the future but from my end the grade looks good. ❤
@@OpticalwanderI've never noticed an issue with your videos before. It's just really desaturated looking to me. It's probably a quirk of my own vision more than anything else.
Everything in the video is in focus. and that's better. blurry bokeh background sucks. you know how to go and shoot a video. Photos are not your purpose
@@Opticalwanderhe’s saying you’re better at shooting videos as opposed to shooting photos. Smh, he hates bokeh in photos. So apparently, you shooting photos on that camera makes everything in focus instead of having a blurry background is what he likes. I’m assuming he’s criticizing your photography skills 🤷♂️
@@FadedMindz210 but the video has a bokeh background when it focuses on the camera so it doesn’t make sense. So my point is. What they’re saying makes no sense. I don’t care too much if they don’t like the photos / or even the video. I can’t please everyone. 🫡
Can’t see what the fuss is about with these liecas and viewing your images confirms it , if you said these images were taken with a phone I wouldn’t disagree with you ..
You’re viewing them through CZcams in all fairness the quality doesn’t always come across. The fuss is a combination of things build quality plus image quality etc. image guilty I agree I can take the same photos on my song a7iii which is 3x cheaper. But the whole package is what’s nice about it. Definitely not a need. Nobody needs a Leica. People want them. That’s the difference I think. I just love the camera and the feel / simplicity of it that’s it. It has a thicker form factor than the x100v that I also own so feels nicer in the hand, it also takes sharper images than the x100v but like I said above. Image quality isn’t why you buy a Leica. It’s the same conversation about watches. They all tell the same time. But some prefer one watch over another. This camera for me is a nice subtle travel camera I can use for smaller professional campaigns. Hope this helps 🙏🏼 Btw I agree my iPhone 15 pro max could definitely take all the photos I took in this video.
love ur viedeos Startert to shoot a little 3 weeks ago 34 Pictures @stefanraubold keep it up man love ur the night photography excuse my English please

Hit the nail on the head! this camera makes me feel like that when I use it 🙏🏼
Very true
Just love the whole social content of this video; photographs capturing moments in people’s lives. Always making it look so simple !

Great to see this again. A really funny day. I'm glad you're enjoying the Q2. It looks fantastic!
Hope you’re doing well Dirk! 😊
Glad you've had the chance to pick up a 'wish list' camera and seem to really enjoy shooting with it.
Great video and loved the pictures, the frames tell a lot of local stories and lifestyle 🔥💯

Very nice photos!
Hello, 34 pictures, nice shot dude 📸
The Temple shot was damn good and the edit too...
After seeing that shot.. i am pretty sure.. you gonna love INDIA...
Also the overall video has a dark moody edit i guess... it was good too(just some places it was very dark)
34 is the magic number 🪄 📸📷
I'm glad you enjoy Hong Kong, and you went to the right place for some 'Hong Kong' limited photos. BTW, we call this place Hong Kong Venice
Absolutely love this 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love shooting with q2. People do brag about q3 and do temp me to upgrade but my q2 is faithful with me. Thanks for sharing
Love your videos greetings from germany i just ordered my First Camera Looking forward to the process 😊
The temple one was amazing
i love your videos
34. I always learn something new every time from your videos
Those photos at 3:21. That light!
Awesome video, and great camera! What camera did you use for the BTS footage?
Always love your videos sam ❤❤
Favorite camera ❤
34 pictures, @tonynphotos - Another good video. Thx Sam
Let's go! 🎉🎉

34 pictures @midwestautoshow. Beautiful scenery and amazing skill, can’t wait to be there someday
Sooo good 🔥🔥🔥
Either 33 or 34, Love the shot inside the small temple thing, the green and red really pop!
@yuxivisuals
were you using action 4 for osmo 3?
34 pics, @bigteddyphotography. Love the shots. Really love the temple shot. Very moody!
nice to see 1 vegi with some respect for meatlovers :P also great video like always! keep it up.
Of course! Sustainable fishing is totally fine. They catch and cook for themselves. The issue is industrial capitalism. It’s nice to see more tradition fishing / living.
Thank you for taking the time to watch 🙏🏼
I really liked that one in 3:27
Same! The vibe in that temple was so sick!!
Still enjoying my fugi so much more.
Nice vid! I'm also going to Hong Kong to purchase a Leica Q2, way cheaper and tax free
what do you use for POV? Is it the Action4? Somehow it looks like an apsc or better
Hey, this was recorded with the Dji pocket 3 and I also use the action 4. The pocket 3 is such an incredible camera for its size!
34 photos ✌️

Hey thank you for watching, might sound silly but is your volume on full? Mines totally fine on phone and laptop. 😊
It was XD
Maybe the video before was louder than normal... Dunno
Anyways greate Video as per usual :)
But how so not just the Fujifilm x100Vi it's cheaper and also feeling of real photography. Still yes i will also take the Q2 over the x100 but if it's about raw shooting feeling. And small / light camera it's a good other option.

Love this video, I counted 34 shots @pointofyouldn ; this camera looks incredible 🔥
What did you use to film this? Looks way diffrent to the ozno action 4 you usually use
Dji pocket 3 🫡
@@Opticalwander dam looks amazing
I just picked up my Leica Q2 ghost and it's night and day compared to my x100v. But something in me misses how the x100v makes me feel
can we get full edit video for image on 3:27
With my preset pack super moody tones preset then change white balance and exposure that’s it 🫡

I want an m11 reporter but my wife saw what they are going for and made it clear I am not spending that much on a camera. Stay single kids
The m11 is definitely a commitment but if it’s what you want and you justify it, Do it.
