Leica Q2 Monochrom vs DJI Air 3 - The difference is in the details..
Is the DJI Air3 with its 0.3mp higher resolution a Leica Q2 killer? The development in camera technology plateaued many ears ago. Today most cameras are good enough and gear doesn't matter much. But there are subtle differences that can separate two otherwise similar cameras. In this video we compare two random cameras with 5 reasons making the case for each.
Please note that some of the wide angle shots where made with a DJI Mini, that has the exact same sensor and lens as the Air. It was also used in a video sample since there where people close by.

Leveling up my home printing - HALBE Magnetic Picture Frames, Canon PRO-10S and Cotton paper rag

    Too many electronic screens in our faces already and has been this way for a long time now. Nope, EVF cameras were fun in the early 2000's, but all my serious gear has an optical finder. It's just a better overall experience and you save loads of $ too. I don't care about spending money though, it's about getting the job done with the best experience. Camera makers need to sell cameras, I always said stopping development 100% on DSLR's was a big mistake. That they should have adopted a co-development strategy because people still want and use DSLR's. It will and already has come back to bite them on the ass.

    3:35 I feel absolutely no need to make somebody else recognize me as a 'badass photographer'. I love keeping a low personal profile when shooting, without the sound of a mirror. I know both cases: a Nikon DSLR and a Sony mirrorless are part of my tools arsenal at the moment, and the Nikon will have to leave soon. I don't need it anymore.

    I have to agree with you, Mattias, and with your comments below. I've been a Pentax shooter for over 35 years, but I "abandoned" Pentax and DSLRs over four years ago to switch to the Fuji mirrorless system... but I still kept my Pentax K5 and all my old manual glass going back to the 80s and 90s. But now, four years on, I'd had enough of looking through EVFs and longed for the return of a "real" viewfinder, and seeing things in real time. After re-watching your video for the Pentax K1, I finally bit the bullet and bought one a month ago. I love it! Much as I love the Fuji XT2, I never liked the EVF so I'm going to sell it and just keep an XT10 or XT20 as a small walkabout camera. And now, being able to use all my old Pentax manual glass on the K1 with excellent focus confirmation, I will be staying with DSLRs, thank you very much! 🙂

    Coming back to photography after 7-8 years out. Starting with a new system as whilst great, my Nikon D7000 is a bit long in the tooth now (and I have GAS 😆).I hired a Sony A7iv with 24-70 f2.8 GM and then a Fuji X-H2 with 16-55 f2.8 red label. Bought the Fuji, then was handed an OM-1 with 12-40 f2.8 Pro to play with. I can't get over how compact and light the OMDS setup is compared to the other (especially FF systems). I can't fault the images either for my use case. Yes I have to think/adapt a bit more if I want blurrier backgrounds but that's about it. Couldn't find anywhere to hire the OM-1 so I now have an OM1Mk2 on my desk alongside the Fuji and they're going to be battling it out for a couple of months before I decide which system to go with. Currently I love them both for different reasons but as I'm only a hobbyist photographer, I really can't justify having two systems, so one will have to go.

    2024 and still loving my Df. I have a Z7, a D850, D7200, D4, a D5 which I use for architechtural and live events work to earn some money. But when I want some ME TIME to take photos for ME, I break out the Df and my collection of 80s and 90s glass... such as the epic 135 2.0 DC. The sensor on this camera is forgiving of old glass and nothing short of PHENOMENAL for night time photos... Oh, and the colour rendering? chef's kiss.

    I have the original E- M1 (16MP) and a Panasonic G6, both cameras use the same lenses and are absolutely superb for travel photography. The small size of both bodies and lenses make them so easy to carry everywhere. Yes there are limitations with these earlier models, but you can easily work round those. I have a crop sensor Canon dslr which is superb in its own way, but with the lens weighs about 3 times the MFT cameras, and is a lot more bulkier.
