Leica Q2-Monochrom!

No. I didn’t misspell anything. In this context “Monochrom” is correct. This amazing piece of equipment arrived today! If you don’t know why it’s a big deal, that’s OK. Many, maybe most, will never understand why anyone would buy a crazy expensive camera that ONLY shoots black and white. if that’s you, it’s simple. You shouldn’t own one.

Don’t be a joy thief. Let me enjoy mine. I love my Leica Q-P. This new toy is a whole new level of enjoyment. My photography hobby began 50+ years ago. It was all black and white. I learned to do it all, rolling my own film from bulk canisters to developing the prints in the tiny closet-darkroom we had in our home on the edge of the Maasai Mara. So for me it’s a return to my childhood but without all the chemicals and films with lights leaks. Leica Q2 Monochrom.
