Leica CL vs Sigma Quattro H

In this write-up, we will be matching up the Leica CL vs Sigma Quattro H, both Advanced Mirrorless digital cameras by manufacturers Leica and Sigma. There exists a substantial gap between the image resolutions of the CL (24MP) and Quattro H (45MP) and the CL (APS-C) and Quattro H (APS-H) feature different sensor sizes.

The CL was released 22 months after the Quattro H which makes the cameras a generation away from one another. Each of the cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving through a detailed comparison, below is a short summary of how the CL matches up vs the Quattro H when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Leica CL & Sigma sd Quattro H. The complete galleries are available at Leica CL Gallery & Sigma Quattro H Gallery.

When you are going to travel with your camera often, you will need to think about its weight and proportions. The Leica CL has outer dimensions of 131mm x 78mm x 45mm (5.2" x 3.1" x 1.8") along with a weight of 403 grams (0.89 lbs) while the Sigma Quattro H has measurements of 147mm x 95mm x 91mm (5.8" x 3.7" x 3.6") and a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an ILC will vary based on the lens you are utilising at that moment. Underneath is the front view scale comparison of the CL and the Quattro H.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the CL and Quattro H is 82 and 78 respectively.

Quite often, it's hard to visualize the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by looking at technical specs. The image here might give you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the CL and Quattro H.

As you have seen, the two cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The CL due to its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field trickier and the Sigma Quattro H will give more detail as a result of its extra 21MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots a little more aggressively. The more modern CL should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
