Hi Daniel,
I don’t have a personal youtube account but nevertheless I follow you posts when they are out there. (so I also can not respond to videos you post, hence this response)
In the Q&A no. 39 you said something about “show me a full reportage made with the “Leica Q”.
I know the Belgium photographer Cedric Gerbehaye works intensively with his Leica Q.
(and several other Leica’s both analogue and digital)
Have a look at his work with the link below.

The Leica magazine LFI also publishes reportages where the camera’s used are always mentioned. If you are interested I can look up in some of the magazines i have where the photographer used a Q.
Keep up the good work on YouTube.
Greetings form The Netherlands.

Very kind of you but the Q is probably not in my future. I really need a “system” camera that works for many things, so the Q is just a bit limited for what I need. Plus, I can buy almost an entire system for the same price. I’m glad photogs are using them, however.
