What improvements have been made to Leica Q and Leica X?

Compared with Leica X, the main improvements of Leica Q are as follows:

1, Leica Q is Quan Huafu and Leica X is APSC. Leica Q is twice as big as Leica X.

2. Leica Q can shoot ultra HD video of 1920P, while Leica X can only shoot ordinary HD video of 1080p.

3. Leica Q pixel is 26 million, Leica X pixel16 million, and Q is nearly twice as high as X pixel.

4. Leica Q is a 28/ 1.7 lens, Leica X is a 24/2.8 lens, and Q is two steps larger than the X aperture.

5. Leica Q's lens has three aspheric surfaces, which is extremely rare among all Leica lenses. The lens of Leica X is just an ordinary lens.

Skills of using Leica Q:

1. Toggles between autofocus and manual focus.

Many friends who have just played Leica Q want to change from automatic gear (AF) to manual gear (MF). When screwing the focus ring, they always don't understand. In fact, Leica has set a small device on the half-moon ring at the bottom of the lens, and there is a small button on the side of the half-moon ring. If you press it, you can easily switch from AF to MF. If you switch from MF to AF, just press the buckle of the half-moon ring and rotate it back to AF.

2. Installation of hood

After getting the camera, the camera and the hood are separated. When installing, you need to unscrew the lens ring in front of the lens (this ring is a bit difficult to screw up for the first time, so you need to screw it to the last point when installing the hood. Just screw the hood flat.

Step 3 move the focus

When shooting, if the focus mode is set to single focus (the focal length is in the middle) and you want to move the focus, you can directly press the cross key on the right side of the camera to quickly adjust the focus, which is convenient and practical.

4, OIS camera anti-shake

The anti-shake function of OIS camera is to correct the "optical axis deviation" through the floating lens of the lens. In an interview with Leica, I said that OIS of Leica Q can be turned off, because it consumes more power, and improving ISO can ensure the shutter speed.

5.JPEG pixel setting

Leica Q's JPEG pixel setting has four settings, and each file has three numbers. These three numbers correspond to the resolutions of photos taken at 28mm, 35mm and 50 mm

6. Shutter sound effect settings

Leica Q's shutter is an analog shutter sound. If the shutter sound effect is turned on in the menu, it will simulate a click sound. After closing, you can hardly hear the shutter sound (factory default closing), which is very suitable for street shooting.

7. Zoom/Lock Button Settings

This button is next to the thumb, and the factory setting is to switch the focal length. For example, switching between three focal lengths of 28mm, 35mm and 50mm (called digital zoom in the menu).
