[Leica] Who would put the Q2 up against the 100/2.8 APO Macro?

[Richard Clompus]

Aram, both shots are really nice but I actually prefer the Q2 due to the increased DOF.  I have the 100 apo macro and love it. I am trying very hard to not upgrade my Q to a Q2. I recently ordered a Canon R5 - couldn’t resist trying the 8K video option.  There’s only so much I can get away with each year with new gear... 

Be well,
Richard
