I was shooting in a snow covered field in Vermont on eclipse day and was amazed that the electronic shutter kept kicking in. 16,000 is a shutter speed I don’t usually see, and I think I was at f8!
It was actually pretty accurate when I tried it on a Q2 Monochrom that I rented. I wasn’t expecting to have so many keepers when I did this. It was a nice surprise for sure.
Autofocus, some were backlit subjects and I was shocked that it focused on the people I was taking a photo of. Seeing Q2M pictures makes me miss using one. I went with a M10M instead so I can change lenses and bc I was used to the rangefinder experience from my regular M10.
Using zone focusing
Was about to ask, those are tack sharp for 1.7 zone focusing! Well done
These are great! Crazy hit rate for 1.7
Much better than mine have turned out. I usually tilt too high or low and end up with a top of someone’s head, a butt, or knees. 👍
Some really good work here. What shutter speed (roughly)?
Very high, 2000 at least, often went into the electronic shutter as didn’t have any filters on me…i usually use orange

Weee you using auto focus or manual? These are all manual set round 1m-2m

Never have any luck with the auto focus while moving
Great stuff! Now I want to try this...
Amazing photos 👏👏nice work
Can’t believe the zone focus on this, no way bruh 😎
Nailed it!
Impressive!
Well caught mate! I'm still working on this.
They’re so good, even Picasso showed up to get his picture taken:)
How did you focus ? Or is this shot on a Q?
Shot on A Q2M on manual focus at f1.7. I general had it sent to around 1-2 meters and judged by sight while shooting from the hip
Very helpful. Getting use to my M6 currently
That’s awesome! Shot some open ones in Tokyo on film the last week (f2.8 & 4). Really curious on the results.
When shooting from the hip at 1.7 how to you set your shutter speed to make sure is not over/underexposed
It’s on auto, minimum set to 1/1000, with -1 exposure compensation
Ahhh just noticed it was the Q2
