The Leica Q2 Monochrom maintains many of the elements of the Q2 system but the 47.3MP full-frame sensor has been reengineered without a colour filter array or low-pass filter, resulting in exclusively black-and-white images with greater dynamic range, sharpness and detail. Other than changes to the sensor, the Q2 Monochrom body is accompanied by the same Maestro II Image Processor and fixed 28mm Summilux f/1.7 ASPH lens. Together, the lens and camera can still capture stunning images and beautiful 4K video footage. On the exterior, the Q2 Monochrom has had a monochrome make-over. Leica has given the camera matte black finish with grey and white engravings on the top plate and body. The Leica red dot has also been removed which with the monochrome look gives this camera a sleeker and more discreet finish.
