Leica Q-P vs Leica X (Typ 113)

Lets take a closer look at the Leica Q-P vs Leica X (Typ 113), both Large Sensor Compact cameras and both of them are offered by Leica. There is a substantial difference among the sensor resolutions of the Q-P (24MP) and X (Typ 113) (16MP) and the Q-P (Full frame) and X (Typ 113) (APS-C) enjoy different sensor measurements.

The Q-P was revealed 4 years later than the X (Typ 113) and that is a fairly big difference as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras offer the identical body type (Large Sensor Compact).

Before diving straight into a complete comparison, below is a brief view of how the Q-P matches up against the X (Typ 113) for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Leica Q-P & Leica X. The full galleries are provided at Leica Q-P Gallery & Leica X (Typ 113) Gallery.

If you are looking to carry your camera regularly, you'll have to factor in its weight and size. The Leica Q-P offers outside dimensions of 130mm x 80mm x 93mm (5.1" x 3.1" x 3.7") having a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs) and the Leica X (Typ 113) has specifications of 133mm x 73mm x 78mm (5.2" x 2.9" x 3.1") and a weight of 486 grams (1.07 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will change based on the lens you are utilizing at the time. Underneath is the front view measurement comparison of the Q-P and the X (Typ 113).

Factoring in size and weight, the portability score of the Q-P and X (Typ 113) is 63 and 71 respectively.

In many cases, its tough to picture the gap in sensor sizing purely by researching specifications. The graphic underneath may give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the Q-P and X (Typ 113).

Plainly, both of these cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Q-P using its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Leica Q-P will result in more detail because of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images a little more aggressively. The fresher Q-P provides an advantage in sensor innovation.
