Is The Leica Q Type 116 Still a Good Camera Today?

In this video, I revisit the original Leica Q (Type 116) to see if it’s still worth buying in 2025. With newer models like the Leica Q2 and Q3 on the market, many photographers are asking whether the Leica Q is still relevant for street photography, travel, and everyday shooting.

I cover real-world performance, image quality, autofocus, low-light capability, and how the 28mm f/1.7 Summilux lens holds up today. If you’re considering buying a used Leica Q, or wondering if it can still compete with modern full-frame compact cameras, this review will help you decide.

This video is for photographers who want a minimalist, premium camera with classic Leica color science and handling—without spending Q3 money.
