David - I'm happy for you and I'm sure that you put a lot of thought into purchasing the 43 mm. Starting my 81st trip around the Sun, I came to the same conclusion several weeks before you did and purchased the Q3 28 mm and I'm super happy and will also be keeping my Fujifilm x100 V camera for similar reasons as you I posted.
Stay safe my friend,
JRN
Thanks so much my friend, very much appreciated. 😀🙌🏽
Congrats David! I'm sure you will enjoy using the 43. That just reminded me of the liquor called "43" that if you haven't you should try it and I toast with you the 43! I stand with Israel!
Thanks so much for your nice comment and your support - this is very rare today. 😀🙌🏽 I didn't know that liquor but I will definitely check it out and toast with you 😀🥂
David - I’m 68, a few years older than you and feel like I have lots of tread left on my tires … you should too. I agree that at this point in our lives, we should get the things we want (assuming we can afford it). Best of luck to you… and enjoy the 43. I’m going with the 28. I’m most comfortable shooting 35, but occasionally want something wider - so, the 28 suits my needs better.
I am not negative or pessimistic, just aware of the fact that every good day is valuable 😀I absolutely understand your choice, and - as I said - I really put a lot of time of research into my decision. 😀
@allynvineberg3873. 68? You young whippersnapper. 😂 But I agree. In a few days I will be 77 years old and happily retired. I have a lot of cameras and spend as much of my free time as possible, travelling to cities all over Europe and my own country, the UK, taking photographs of anything that takes my fancy on the day. We should all live life to the full for as long as we can.
@ I could not agree more and I love your mindset 😀
Congratulations! The Leica 43 is my dream camera. Do you still have the DL8 in your arsenal?
Thank you very much 😀🙌🏽 Of course, this is my EDC 😀
Hi David, you are spot on with the price of APO lens and M body, the Q 3-43 compared is a bargain.
Stay strong 💪
Thank you 😊🙏🏽
Thank you for subscribing, I saw your very interesting channel and suscribed, too. Will return later for a closer look. 😀
If I buy another Leica, I reckon it’ll be a Q3/43, too. Congrats, mate. 🦘
Thanks a lot Peter 😀 Please keep me posted, if you really do. 😀
@ I think I’ll have to wait a while. The D-Lux 8 is just too damn good right now. I spent a few days in the desert with it recently, and wound up using it more than the X2D!
@@peterfritzphoto This is awesome news! Why don't you make a clip on that? 😀
@@DAVCOHPHOGRAPH Maybe, but I'm thinking about using the desert footage and images for something else. I just did a review of the camera, so I don't want to cover the same ground again: ua-cam.com/video/26JKZTCVVD4/v-deo.html
Enjoy the new camera. As you say, none of us know how much time we have left so we might as well enjoy life while we can.
😀🙌🏽
Congrats, no need to explain making this purchase. Having a system camera is still nice, because you can interchange lenses!
Thank you and yes, I understand but I am done with this. 😀
@ how come you chose the 43 vs 28mm because you can always crop into a 28 whereas you never can crop out of 43mm? Don’t get me wrong, 40mm is my all time favorite focal length!
@@elliotresnick5433 Easy because no matter how much crop, the photo will always have the typical characteristics of a 28mm.
@@DAVCOHPHOGRAPH I agree with that! If I had the budget, I would probably get a Q2M or Q343 as a companion to my R5 system.
@@elliotresnick5433 Why still the Q2 despite all the advantages of the q3 over the q2? I am really interested. 😀
Hello David, Greetings and may I wish you a slightly late Happy New Year for 2025. I just came across your original channel earlier today, and from there to this newer one, and so far, I like what I see. I am lucky that I can afford to have several cameras, including Fuji X-H2, X-T4, X-T5 and X100VI, as well as a pair of Nikon Zfs. Lately, my everyday cameras are the Nikon Zf and X100VI, with maybe the Fuji being my first choice. I live in London and go out as often as I can all over the city taking photographs of anything and everything. Like you, I watch a lot of UA-cam videos and find many content creators to be quite false, but also that a few are worth watching and listening to. Lately I have been very tempted by the Leica D-Lux 8 and today I am going to a large photography show in London and may buy the Leica if it is available. I love travel and over the last 5 years have travelled extensively in the UK but also to Rome, Florence, Pisa, Vienna, Strasbourg and Paris and shortly I am going to visit Stuttgart and Esslingen. I think the X100VI and the Leica would be ideal travelling companions. Thank you for producing such honest and interesting videos and I look forward to catching up on the ones I have missed and to seeing more from you. By the way, Vienna is a beautiful city and is my favourite city in the world outside of London. I first visited in the 1980s and fell in love with it, and my most recent trip was in 2023 in the summer when the weather was fantastic. And so was the Ottakringer beer too. 👍 Oh, and I subscribed here too, of course.
Blimey, only a few weeks ago the Fujifilm X100VI was the bees knees.
This is why people are getting fed up of UA-cam, it’s a relentless GAS fest.
I never said the best, I was talking a lot about LQ3 and I explained in great detail why I chose LQ3 43 while I keep FFX100VI. Frankly, I don't give a damn who is fed up with whatever, their problem 🤣
@ Yeh hysterical, laughing at your own words now 🙄
@@davidmurray5926 YOUR problem 😜
No worries, I know what video to watch now when I can’t get to sleep.
@@davidmurray5926 I don't care. You watched it, commented on it and therefore helped pushing it 🤣 what you "think" is totally irrelevant since the "quality" of your comments is anyway comparable to a trash can 😜
I don’t like the political exposure of that star. Skip channel.
I don't like such life forms like you who accept hijabs and crosses but criticize stars of david. get lost 🤣
Congratulations on the Q3 43 David. Enjoy life today because tomorrow isn't promised. The fact that the Leica is hand by German technicians is worth half the price alone. The mystique, the capabilities and joy a camera like that brings can not be valued. Enjoy my friend!
Thanks so much 😀🙏🏽
