Leica T Type 701 vs Pentax Q7

Lets look a bit more closely at the Leica T Type 701 versus Pentax Q7, former is a Advanced Mirrorless while the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by competitors Leica and Pentax. There exists a substantial gap between the sensor resolutions of the T Type 701 (16MP) and Q7 (12MP) and the T Type 701 (APS-C) and Q7 (1/1.7") come with different sensor measurements.

The T Type 701 was launched 9 months after the Q7 which means that they are of a similar age. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before diving through a in-depth comparison, below is a short summary of how the T Type 701 scores versus the Q7 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a preview of the gallery images for Leica T Typ 701 & Pentax Q7. The complete galleries are provided at Leica T Type 701 Gallery & Pentax Q7 Gallery.

If you are going to carry around your camera, you will have to factor in its weight and volume.

Do not forget, the weight of an ILC will change dependant on the lens you are using at that moment. Underneath is the front view dimensions comparison of the T Type 701 compared to the Q7.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the T Type 701 and Q7 is 85 and 92 respectively.

Normally, it is very hard to picture the gap between sensor sizes merely by going over a spec sheet. The picture below will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the T Type 701 and Q7.

Clearly, each of these cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The T Type 701 featuring a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF less difficult and the Leica T Type 701 will deliver more detail utilizing its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more modern T Type 701 should have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
