Leica is expanding its Q-Cameras even more. The Leica Q seriesfull-frame cameras have always been loved by photographers willing to pay a bit of extra cash, but since 2015 theyve all offered the same 28mm f/1.7 lens. That, however, is now changing with the Leica Q3 43, which is almost identical to the standard Leica Q3 but has a 43mm f/2 lens.The APO-Summicron 43 f/2 ASPH lens is totally new for Leica, and as mentioned, it kind of represents a big shift for the Q series. On top of the lens change, the Q3 43 also has a gray leatherette exterior, which helps give it a unique look in Leicas lineup.Leica designs have been an icon in the camera world for many years now. Despite the new gray leather look, the Q3 43 continues that tradition, shifting things a little, but retaining the impeccable build quality, minimalistic design, and classic red dot logo.The rest of the camera remains largely unchanged, which is a positive. It still features the same sensor with an ISO range from 50 to 100,000, the same hybrid autofocus system, and the capability to capture 8K video. Leica enthusiasts will be pleased that the familiar controls are retained, allowing users of previous Leica Q series cameras to handle this model with ease. The only notable adjustment is the dedicated digital crop button, which now crops to 60mm, 75mm, 90mm, 120mm, and 150mm equivalents.The camera offers some smart features too, just like the standard model. It can be paired with the Leica Fotos app to transfer data quickly and easily. The app even allows users to load Leica looks onto the camera. The Leica Q3 43 adds a new Leica look in the form of Leica Chrome, which is designed to apply an analog charm to JPEG images.The other difference between the Q3 43 and the standard Q3 comes in the price tag. While the Q3 is priced at $6,295, the newer variant is even pricier, sitting at $6,895. The Leica Q3 43 is available via the Leica online store or authorized Leica dealers.
