Leica is rumored to announce a new Q3 camera in 2023 with a 60MP sensor. The current Leica Q2 models have a 47MP sensor. The new Leica M11 that was recently announced has a 60MP sensor. So it’s quite possible that we will meet a new Leica Q3 with 60MP sensor.
The Leica Q2 is a fixed-lens, full-frame camera sporting a new 47.3MP sensor and a sharp, stabilized 28mm F1.7 Summilux lens. Leica has paired the sensor with an updated Maestro processing engine to enable a sensitivity range of ISO 50–50,000, a maximum continuous shooting rate of up to 20fps with the electronic shutter, and 4K (3840 x2160) video recording at 24/30fps (or C4K 4096 x 2160 at 24p).
The US price for Leica Q2 is $5,795.00, and available at B&H Photo/Adorama.
In January of this year, the image of the camera that seems to be the Leica Q3 leaked from the official app, so we are wondering if the announcement is near, but since it is 2023, it is still a long way off.
From the information so far, it seems that the Leica Q3 will be a model with a tilt-type monitor and an increased number of images from the current 47.3 million pixels to 60 million pixels. It seems likely that the lens will not change.
