I like the way you explain. Not only in this video. Gerd from Germany

I have seen quite many videos here about the settings of the Q3, but this is by far the best one. Thanks a lot for taking your time to explain all that in a very calm and easy to understand way. The Q3 is my first Leica, so getting such basic tips is very helpful for the start

Excellent video! Clear and concise. Well done.

I’ll come back to this in mid 2024 when my order is fulfilled. I can tell this is going to be useful!

Thanks, Nick. Your videos are so easy to follow, especially with my camera in hand and the pause button handy.

Very useful video. Keeps to the point and covers all the essential options very clearly, (unlike some other videos).

That`s the best explanation of menu settings I have seen. Best regards from Germany

Thank you Nick. New to Leica, but not new to photography, really appreciate your clear and concise run through. Thanks for making this.

Excellent video! I’ve had my Q3 for 4 months now. Learned a few great bits from your video. Very well put together. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the great video! I have owned a Leica SL2s for a year now, and I am currently eagerly awaiting the opportunity to acquire my Q3. Seeing how similar the menu is to my current camera brings me a great deal of happiness.

I am a new Leica user and this overview was very helpful. Thankyou

Thanks Nick, very useful. Just got my Q3 and getting back into photography after a very long time. Only used a very basic digital camera more than 10 years ago and before that it was all film. I love that you explained things simply and given practical examples of how certain features and options might be used. For me I'm trying to equate and compare with film cameras. And so far so good.

Awesome thanks for sharing. V clear.

Hi Nick , Thank you. As always an excellent presentation. Valuable and easy to understand. Actually this is my first Leica camera. And what a beauty it is. Exceptionally tactile, wonderful ergonomics and super lovely images. The camera inspires. I just like to pick it up all of the time and take images. Never felt this way before. Adam.

Very useful. Thanks!!

Thank you very much for all information and it was very interesting

As always Top Class, thank you

Great video Nick. Of all the settings, I have had trouble with finding a goldilocks setting for the AF. As a long term Q2 user, I have found the best parts of the Q3 to be its sensor and low light capability, when compared with the Q2. ISO 25000 does not seem to be a problem with this camera.

Excellent excellent excellent. Thank you so much.

Brilliant I found this really helpful thanks

Thank you - very helpful.

Great instruction thank you.

Fabulous insight into what the Q3 can do. Very clearly explained. Thank you. Now, I just need to commit another $10,000 to camera gear 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Thanks for the clear guidance. I would like to have some more guidance o the M and L mods. When taking pictures inside, would it be advantageous to use the L mode so that a similar low light advantage is achieved as with the SL2-S compared to the SL2.

Ah cool!

Thank you for making the video and presenting it in a clear and concise manner and in particular at a reasonable pace. So many people these days treat these things like a thirty second sound bite and want to be finished before they even start. I am on a waiting list for this camera as many are here in Europe. My main system is based around the Olympus OM-1 and I am very used to shooting using exposure compensation and in particular taking note of orange and dark blue flashing blinkers in the viewing and or on the rear screen to show parts of the image which are over and under exposed. Can you please confirm if the Q3 offers the same blinker option in the menu? Your talk seemed to refer to it but I don’t believe you showed this in the later parts of the presentation. Thank you. Regards, Steven.

very useful video thanks - still waiting on my Q3 - maybe this week?! :)

Very helpful. Just ordered mine and of course, it is back ordered😢

Thank you Nick....well and clear explained. Q: I miss the possibility to center the auto focus area, so im always using the arrows on the wheel selector on the back. Do you know if there is a function that does the same, and could be assigned to a Fn-botton?

I’ve had my Q3 for 2 months and I love it. However I’m not getting anything like 300+ shots from a battery. It’s mainly street shooting and I have already turned off Bluetooth. If I get 150 I think that’s about it. Any suggestions or recommendations other than turn off the LCD? Many thanks.

Thanks a lot for this comprehensive guide!! So much better that reading the instructions manual 😅 Do you know by any chance if there is a way of maintaining different default settings for photo and video? So for example, that every time I switch to video mode my ss is 1/50 and when I switch to photo it's 1/250? Thanks again!!

Amazing, another video of a camera that nobody can get their hands on. I will download this one and come back in 8 - 12 months LOL

Hello, I have a serious problem with the Leica Q3 I just bought. The camera's settings constantly change without my consent. For example, the setting I made to shoot only DNG automatically changes to DNG&JPG. Then I set the ISO to 100 and it automatically switches to Auto ISO without my consent. This problem also occurs also in some other settings. I tried to solve the problem with my own means, but I couldn't. Maybe Am I doing something wrong while adjusting the settings? Do I need to lock the settings I made? If so, how and how is locking done? I would appreciate it if you could guide me on how to solve my problem. With thanks, Moiz Cukurel

Nice video, but you accidentally skipped a couple of sub-menus: including Focus Assist, Touch AF, AF Tracking Start Position, EVF Frame Rate. Wondering if you just take the default on those?

Why do Nick Rains use nails for selection on Leica Q3 thumbwheels?

I found very disturbing that AFL and AEL allow to take only one picture withe AE or/and AF locked because after the first picture it resets and I did not found a way to keep the values locked if I want to take more then one picture with the same value as I can do with every other camera I use.

I ordered mine in June from BH…nothing yet.

The lens will break if you drop the camera since it is too heavy.

Very annoying.... Nick uses indexfinger nails on thumbwheels. Please use your thumb on the thumbwheel.
