Why I chose the Leica Q2 Monochrom

Описание: The Leica Q2 Monochrom, or as I like to call it the Leica Q2M, is a 47.3 MP fixed lens monochrome only camera that boasts a beautiful 28mm f1.7 Summilux Lens and a stunning OLED viewfinder. I have been searching for the perfect every day carry digital camera for a long time. In my journey I have owned the Fujifilm X-E3, X-E4, X100V (x3), the Leica Q, and finally, the Q2M. I bought the Leica Q2M with full intentions on selling it for a profit, and instead found myself thousands of dollars in the hole. It's not an inexpensive camera by any means, and it certainly is not for me everyone... but might it just be the perfect EDC for me? Watch this video about my experience with the Leica Q2M for the answer. PS… this is not a review so don’t @ me! Just sharing my experience with the Q2M so far, and why I chose the Q2M over the Q2 and other cameras.
