I'd say it's a sweet camera. But only if you use it to make something with it.

[A]ll of these autofocus improvements take it from a camera that's like, yeah, it has autofocus to now being a truly capable photography workhorse.
All in all, I really enjoyed the Leica M EV1 and I do think it makes sense for a lot of people.
It takes everything that was great about the original X2D and fixes every complaint I had almost.
It is the most fun and enjoyable camera I have ever used for that.
After taking this to the Tetons and shooting over 1500 photos with it, while I think much of the criticism is unfounded, unfortunately, I'm left a little bit disappointed.
It's received some mixed response for not being a huge overhaul from its predecessor, but the truth is it's still probably the best hybrid photo video mirrorless camera on the market, so much so that I've purchased one to be my go-to camera for the foreseeable future.
Like sure, there's some minor annoyances with the focus noise and the aperture ring being a little less than perfect, but for half the price it suddenly becomes an insane value.
The M11-P, it's like an instrument; it's fun and it makes you want to go out and play, and that's what kind of all Leicas are good at. The M11-P is just kind of the best and most fun version of that instrument.
It is an extremely capable camera as an everyday carry, and it has a ton of nice little features that will get you excited to take photos.
If that sounds like you, or you want something that doesn't sacrifice image quality for the sake of a very small form factor, I don't think you can go wrong with this lens.
Now I feel like I've spent the bulk of this video complaining about the Leica Q2, but I really do love it. The most important thing to me is that I really enjoy shooting with it.
When we consider the uniqueness of this lens, the image quality, the overall performance, the lightweight nature of it, the fact that it also has weather sealing, I have no doubt recommending that this is the best value wide angle lens for Sony shooting.
