Leica Q-P vs Leica X2

Below is a detailed review of the Leica Q-P vs Leica X2, both Large Sensor Compact digital cameras and they are both manufactured by Leica. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the Q-P (24MP) and X2 (16MP) and the Q-P (Full frame) and X2 (APS-C) feature different sensor sizes.

The Q-P was revealed 6 years later than the X2 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras come with the identical body type (Large Sensor Compact).

Before getting in to a full comparison, below is a brief overview of how the Q-P scores against the X2 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Leica Q-P and Leica X2. The full galleries are viewable at Leica Q-P Gallery and Leica X2 Gallery.

If you're planning to lug around your camera, you will want to consider its weight and volume. The Leica Q-P offers physical dimensions of 130mm x 80mm x 93mm (5.1" x 3.1" x 3.7") accompanied by a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs) and the Leica X2 has sizing of 124mm x 69mm x 52mm (4.9" x 2.7" x 2.0") accompanied by a weight of 345 grams (0.76 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you are employing at that time. Following is the front view measurement comparison of the Q-P vs the X2.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability rating of the Q-P and X2 is 63 and 83 respectively.

Often, it's tough to imagine the gap between sensor measurements merely by reviewing a spec sheet. The graphic here may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the Q-P and X2.

Clearly, each of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Q-P using its larger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh less difficult and the Leica Q-P will offer you greater detail because of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more modern Q-P provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
