Leica Q3 Monochrom
With its special black-and-white sensor, the Leica Q3 Monochrom distils photography to its purest form: Where composition is shaped solely by light and shadow.
The fast Summilux 28 f/1.7 ASPH. lens, paired with a 5.76 MP OLED viewfinder and a tilting touch display, creates a crystal-clear view of your subject. The 60 MP monochrome sensor with Triple Resolution Technology (60, 36, 18 megapixels) captures photos and videos in outstanding quality, even at high ISO settings.
Its design fuses the Q family’s modern look with minimalist monochrome aesthetics. Crafted in Germany from the finest materials, the Q3 Monochrom features a unique user interface for intuitive, convenient operation. Thanks to its fast connectivity with the Leica FOTOS App, it integrates seamlessly into the mobile workflow of everyday creative practice.
The essentials:
-
Dedicated 60 MP BSI Monochrom Sensor: Without a Bayer or Low Pass Filters, this camera only records values of light with the highest accuracy.
-
8K Monochromatic Video: Offering the highest resolution output from a dedicated monochrom full frame camera, with support for LOG & HLG.
-
Content Credentials: For the first time on a Q camera, and a world first for a camera with a dedicated monochrome sensor.
-
New UI: The highly acclaimed UI present in the SL3 cameras is now also available for the first time in the Leica Q3 Monochrom. A future firmware update will allow Leica Q3 and Leica Q3 43 customers to also experience the UI on their cameras (scheduled for end of 2025).
-
Distinct “Monochrom” Design: The Red Dot has been omitted, allowing the camera to showcase its stunning black and grey design elements.
