I've Taken Over 25,000 Photos With My New Leica. These Are My Favorites

CNET06-06-2025
Six months ago I bought a Leica Q3 43. Costing me £6,000 (around $8,000), this compact camera has gone with me across Europe, photographing everything from street and travel scenes to speeding cars on frozen lakes and major editorial features.
I've really gotten to know the camera, and I love having something that's so high quality but still so easy to carry around. It offers a different, no-nonsense form of shooting that my other cameras don't, and sure, the Leica badge still gives me something of a thrill when I see it.
I've taken over 25,000 photos with the camera in my time owning it so far, and I've put together a selection of my favorites here for you to scroll through. Most images are captured as JPEGs, taking advantage of the camera's built-in Chrome color profile, which gives a beautiful look to the colors and contrast.

Power cuts may also occur, with the potential to affect other services, such as mobile phone coverage. Some roads and bridges may close too. According to forecasters, temperatures will reach highs of 20C on Monday and 19C on Tuesday. A Met Office statement reads: "Storm Floris is likely to bring a spell of unseasonably strong and potentially disruptive winds to northern UK on Monday into early Tuesday. "Storm Floris will bring a spell of unusually windy weather for the time of year across the northern half of the UK early next week. The strongest winds are most likely to occur across Scotland during Monday afternoon and night, although there remains some uncertainty in the depth and track of Floris. "Across the warning area, many inland areas are likely to see westerly wind gusts of 40-50 mph with 60-70 mph possible along exposed coasts and high ground, especially Scotland. "There is a chance of a spell of even stronger winds developing for a time, with inland gusts of 60-70 mph and 85 mph along exposed Scottish coastlines and hills. Winds will first ease in the west during later Monday but remaining very strong overnight until early Tuesday in the east. Heavy rain may also contribute to the disruption in places."
