Leica Q-P vs Sigma DP2x

Its time to examine more closely at the Leica Q-P and Sigma DP2x, both Large Sensor Compact digital cameras by brands Leica and Sigma. There exists a huge gap between the resolutions of the Q-P (24MP) and DP2x (5MP) and the Q-P (Full frame) and DP2x (APS-C) enjoy different sensor sizes.

The Q-P was manufactured 7 years later than the DP2x and that is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Large Sensor Compact).

Before getting through a full comparison, below is a concise summation of how the Q-P scores against the DP2x in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Leica Q-P and Sigma DP2x. The entire galleries are provided at Leica Q-P Gallery and Sigma DP2x Gallery.

In case you're going to lug around your camera regularly, you will have to think about its weight and size. The Leica Q-P has got outside 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 Sigma DP2x has specifications of 113mm x 60mm x 56mm (4.4" x 2.4" x 2.2") and a weight of 280 grams (0.62 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you are utilizing at that time. Following is the front view size comparison of the Q-P compared to the DP2x.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the Q-P and DP2x is 63 and 86 respectively.

Quite often, it is very difficult to imagine the difference between sensor measurements simply by reading through specifications. The photograph underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the Q-P and DP2x.

Plainly, the two cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Q-P featuring a larger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF easier and the Leica Q-P will resolve greater detail due to its extra 19 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The younger Q-P provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
