Leica has expanded its acclaimed Q-Series with the introduction of the Leica Q3 43, featuring a new 43mm APO-Summicron f/2 ASPH. lens. This addition caters to photographers seeking a focal length that mimics natural human vision, perfect for both street photography and portraits.

The new lens is part of Leica’s renowned APO family, offering superior image sharpness and contrast in all lighting conditions. The 43mm focal length, combined with Leica’s high-resolution OLED viewfinder, provides distortion-free composition, giving photographers greater flexibility.

With its BSI CMOS full-frame sensor and 60-megapixel resolution, the Q3 43 excels in both photo and video capture, supporting focal lengths up to 150mm through digital cropping. The camera also boasts an integrated macro mode and impressive ISO performance, allowing for clear, bokeh-rich images, even in low light.

The Q3 43 stands out aesthetically with a grey leather finish and compact design, making it a stylish and practical choice for on-the-go photographers. Connectivity is also seamless, with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and compatibility with the Leica FOTOS app for easy sharing.

This new camera is available now at Leica stores and authorized dealers, with a price tag of $7,888 USD.
