The Leica Q3 combines both classic and modern timeless design with new, unprecedented technologies in the Q series! The third generation Q3 uses the same fixed focal length and full-frame design that has proven effective in the Q and Q2 cameras but enhances performance with a 60MP sensor, a new hybrid AF system, 8K video recording, and redesigned EVF and LCD displays.
The Q3 features the same 60MP full-frame CMOS sensor as the flagship M11 model. This high-resolution sensor is equipped with a back-illuminated (BSI) design that offers improved noise performance and faster readout speed, benefiting both photography and video applications. The higher resolution is especially suited for more detailed subjects like landscapes and architectural themes, and the BSI design’s noise reduction enhances clarity and color accuracy when working in low light at higher ISO settings.
The increased resolution of the 60MP sensor also enables unique digital zoom features that simulate working with lenses of different focal lengths: a 1.25x crop mimics a 35mm focal length, a 1.8x crop mimics 50mm, a 2.7x crop mimics 75mm, and a 3.2x crop mimics 90mm focal length.
One of the most significant upgrades in the Q3 is the inclusion of a hybrid AF system, which utilizes phase detection together with contrast detection and depth-from-defocus (DFD) AF for faster and more accurate focusing on moving subjects or in mixed lighting conditions. The addition of the phase detection system also enables an intelligent subject recognition system that can detect and track eyes, faces, bodies, and animals in the frame.
