Leica Q-P vs Nikon A

The following is a extensive comparison of the Leica Q-P vs Nikon A, both Large Sensor Compact digital cameras by rivals Leica and Nikon. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the Q-P (24MP) and A (16MP) and the Q-P (Full frame) and A (APS-C) provide different sensor dimensions.

The Q-P was announced 5 years after the A which is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras feature the same body design (Large Sensor Compact).

Before getting right into a detailed comparison, here is a simple introduction of how the Q-P grades against the A with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Leica Q-P and Nikon Coolpix A. The whole galleries are viewable at Leica Q-P Gallery and Nikon A Gallery.

For anybody who is aiming to travel with your camera often, you'll need to consider its weight and measurements. The Leica Q-P has external dimensions of 130mm x 80mm x 93mm (5.1" x 3.1" x 3.7") along with a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs) while the Nikon A has proportions of 111mm x 64mm x 40mm (4.4" x 2.5" x 1.6") with a weight of 299 grams (0.66 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ depending on the lens you are using at that moment. Underneath is a front view dimensions comparison of the Q-P compared to the A.

Looking at size and weight, the portability grade of the Q-P and A is 63 and 88 respectively.

Oftentimes, it can be hard to imagine the difference between sensor dimensions just by looking at specs. The pic here may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the Q-P and A.

All in all, both of those cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Q-P with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Leica Q-P will give you extra detail with its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The newer Q-P should have an edge in sensor tech.
