Leica Q-P vs Panasonic LX100

Here is a thorough comparison of the Leica Q-P versus Panasonic LX100, both Large Sensor Compact cameras by companies Leica and Panasonic. There exists a big gap among the image resolutions of the Q-P (24MP) and LX100 (13MP) and the Q-P (Full frame) and LX100 (Four Thirds) come with totally different sensor measurements.

The Q-P was revealed 4 years later than the LX100 and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras come with the identical body type (Large Sensor Compact).

Before going through a comprehensive comparison, below is a concise overview of how the Q-P matches up vs the LX100 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

If you are intending to carry your camera frequently, you will need to factor its weight and proportions. The Leica Q-P offers external measurements of 130mm x 80mm x 93mm (5.1" x 3.1" x 3.7") with a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs) while the Panasonic LX100 has measurements of 115mm x 66mm x 55mm (4.5" x 2.6" x 2.2") accompanied by a weight of 393 grams (0.87 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you are utilizing at that moment. Underneath is the front view measurement comparison of the Q-P versus the LX100.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the Q-P and LX100 is 63 and 83 respectively.

Quite often, it is very tough to envision the gap in sensor sizing purely by going through technical specs. The visual underneath may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the Q-P and LX100.

As you can tell, both cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Q-P having a bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field easier and the Leica Q-P will produce greater detail because of its extra 11MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures much more aggressively. The younger Q-P is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
