That’s my experience too , with many of Leica cameras. I use the sl2-s and the q3. And if I turn the sliders in camera raw it gets crazy. Especially sky and water. I have never got such good skies before. And if you ad filter like nd and pol and even b&w filter (orange, yellow) you get such nice b&w images and beautiful clean surfaces with the pol. Add to this the blurred foreground and you are never disappointed. The first time I had this experience with a digital camera was the Nikon D90. This camera was so extremely capable of low light it was breathtaking. But the leicas ad this touch of lenses. And it does not stop there. I can use basically all my old Nikon and canon lenses and have combinations of lens camera that where not possible bevor. So thanks for the video. And keep on the good work. Cheers from hamburg .

I’m glad that is the case with the Q3 as well. I had an SL2-s and traded it in for the M11. I’m debating picking up an SL2 while it’s on sale or waiting for the SL3. Thank you!🙏

Having owned 9 Leica cameras so far, I can say it is the LESS RELIABLE brand and the absolute WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!! - Leica M9-P and MM1: cracked sensor. - Leica S2: corroded sensor. - Leica S007: video card failure on the first shoot. It took 6 months to Leica to fix it and it is only after a long ranting post on GetDPI and LFI that they fixed it. Leica doesn’t like to be trash talked… All bought new, of course. The Q1 and M246 have been quite reliable though and I still love my M6 Titanium and my M5 with modified lugs. I have never had ANY problems with my Nikon D3X, Canon 5DmkIV, Nikon Zfc or Zf (FANTASTIC CAMERA!!!) My personal experience here.

Thank you for sharing. It’s tough to trust a brand when you have. Bad experiences. Totally understand.

I went through two of these and they both froze on me, constantly. I’ve owned over 10 Leica cameras since 2019 and they all have hiccups, much more than any other brand I owned and I’ve had over 50 cameras. While Leica is great at making hardware, mechanical cameras and lenses, they can’t make electronics or software to save their lives.

I’m sorry. I’ve heard some people having issues. I have enjoyed the ease of use, amazing connectivity and UI. I’ve had a Q2, SL2-S and now this M11 and no major electronic issues. My new Sony A1 did brick on me in the first month and was easily replaced by Sony.

Recently I tried setting the ISO and shutter speed on my M10-R to A (Automatic). I found that more often than not I wasn't really happy with my photos, a face or something was always a little overexposed or underexposed. Shooting a Leica is supposed to be fun, and, for me, setting everything to "A" lessened that fun.

I can understand that. I think the M10R used a seperate light meter as opposed to exposing directly from the sensor on the M11.

I'm one of those "oh, please sir, may I get a Leica please" plebs. I'm not.a pro and never will be. I'm shooting street mostly. Would you throw away EVERYTHING and grab an M11 and not look back? (If you were me, not you) ;)

I think you should definitely consider the Q or M11 if you are drawn to that form factor. The image quality is truly unique with the M11. Never seen anything like it. The Q while having the same sensor and not having the same exact results, renders sharper images, auto focus, IBIS and weather sealing. I would try both and be honest with yourself.

@@constantinephotography5287 very much appreciate the feedback. Thank you so much. I am now starting to case a few banks in my neighborhood and I will see which one seems the easiest to plan a getaway from, and then I will see about picking up one of those fine babies

@ChrisBrogan haha! There should be some used ones out there now that they have the M11P out.

Like you, I’ll shoot on auto ISO unless I’m using on a tripod. I usually shoot for b&w and cap at 12,800 but for colour I don’t really like it over 4000. Do you adjust max ISO depending on colour vs b&w?

@constantinephotography5287 6 ай бұрын

I cap it the same for both. I probably should set it lower for color shots. That’s a good idea.
