The original Leica Q launched in 2015 as one of the most influential compact cameras ever made — combining a 24.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor with a fixed Summilux 28mm f/1.7 ASPH lens in a beautifully engineered body. It was the camera that redefined what a fixed-lens compact could be, offering full-frame image quality, a responsive touchscreen, and Leica's legendary optical performance in a pocketable form. The hybrid optical framing lines and precise manual focus ring gave it a shooting feel unlike any other compact — and established the Q series as one of the most coveted cameras in Leica's modern lineup.
The camera that redefined luxury compact photography — a full-frame sensor, the finest 28mm compact lens available, and a shooting feel that is uniquely Leica.
