The ideal focal length for truly natural portraits
The 43mm focal length of the Leica Q3 43 makes it the perfect choice for professional quality portraits. The images are distortion-free and (at wide apertures) beautifully separate your subject from the background, thanks to its shallow depth of field. With a soft bokeh and targeted focus on the eyes, the camera delivers striking portraits with natural skin tones. Its compact and discreet size also helps to create authentic, spontaneous moments by encouraging a more natural interaction between the photographer and subject.
