I love colors (yes, even though my wardrobe consists mostly of black clothes). I love photographing colors. Capturing vivid greens, popping oranges, and subtle blues brings me a lot of joy. When I test the best cameras, I thoroughly enjoy analyzing how different shades have been captured by a camera's sensor. As someone whose niche is wildlife photography, I adore capturing animals' and birds' varied colors — it brings me a lot of joy.
So what happens when you take color away from someone who loves it so much? For the past two weeks, I've been testing the Leica Q3 Monochrom. As the name suggests, it's a black-and-white version of the standard Q3, and it features a mono sensor which shoots stills and video in black-and-white only. I was skeptical at first, but the more I used the camera, the more details were revealed to me — details I hadn't noticed before.
