"You're like the thief who isn't the least bit sorry he stole, but is terribly, terribly sorry he's going to jail." ~ Rhett Butler

I've spent a long time obsessed with the idea of the Leica Q2 and I'm not sure why. I think it's possibly because I've fallen in love with the portrait photography of Greg Williams, and he uses a Leica. I don't like shooting digitally and I don't shoot portraits but I've still been lusting after this £4,000 camera I absolutely won't ever be able to afford.

The Q2 has a fixed Summilux 28mm f/1.7 lens, and I decided that since I'll never have a Leica I can at least grab 28mm lenses for my go-to cameras and see how I like the focal length.

These were taken on the Miranda 28mm f2.8 on Lomo 400 with the Olympus. Of all the focal lengths I've shot with so far, this is my least favourite. I don't like how close I have to get to people to take portraits/candid style shots, and finding interesting compositions with such a wide lens is tough. Most of these images have been cropped in some way, and that feels like cheating.

I'm going to keep practicing with it, but it's definitely gone some way to helping me stop lusting after the Q2 quite so much. That said if anybody wants to buy me a Leica, I won't say no.
