Fujfilm X-Pro 2 vs Leica SL vs Sony A7R II

7 years 10 months ago #482902 by TCooper
With exception the Fujifilm is not full frame.  What would be the reasons you would buy a Leica over these other two?  Especially the Leica vs the Sony?  The Sony A7R II has better specs and is half the price of the Leica.  Man, they even look the same when you remove the logos.

If I wanted to impress people without snapping a single photo, I'd dangle the Leica around my neck. In any event, none of these offer me anything for me to move away from Nikon. Even if I were to change out my gear, it would be to Canon.....

Why so serious?

A Sony A7RII is  pretty amazing camera. The RAW files can really be pushed and pulled without breaking down. If I had the money.......

Leica is over priced piece of equipment IMHO.  Beautiful camera, however you are better off with the Sony from this batch.
