Leica Q3 in-depth review – Five critical improvements to the Q-system

Aug 14, 2023 by Keith Wee Add Comment

Announced on 25 May 2023, the Leica Q3 is the third iteration of one of Leica’s most-loved cameras. As of now, I am sure there are many specifications-focused reviews available hence this review will focus on what I deem to be the five critical improvements in the Leica Q3 over the Leica Q2 that gleamed over my hands-on user experience over the last 3 days.

This review will be long as I have tried to structure the review based on the questions requested by photographers across social media platforms instead of the typical boring regurgitation of specifications.

Is TTArtisan’s new 35mm F0.95 lens the Noctilux for Fujifilm X-mount?

After releasing their first autofocus lens for Fujifilm X-mount, the TTArtisan 27mm ƒ2.8 (review here), TTArtisan is here again with a pleasant surprise in its yet latest release. Announced last week, the TTArtisan 35mm ƒ0.95 seeks to break new boundaries for Fujifilm X-mount. For Fujifilm native lenses, there are currently no lenses of this spec with the closest in terms of maximum aperture size, the classic XF35mm ƒ1.4, and of course, the more modern XF33mm ƒ1.4 (review here).

I was pleasantly surprised that TTArtisan has designed and built a lens of these specifications smaller than the already compact native XF35mm ƒ1.4. Let us take a closer look at the technical details before going into how it performs.
