Is the leica q3 monochrom good for beginners?

I wouldn't pick the Leica Q3 Monochrom as a first camera. It shoots black and white only, and its built-in 28mm f/1.7 lens is the only lens you get. That's a fine setup if you already know you love black and white and wide views, but a beginner usually learns faster with colour and a choice of lenses.

If you like the Q3 idea, the Leica Q3 gives you the same 60-megapixel full frame sensor in colour. The Leica Q3 43 swaps the 28mm for a 43mm f/2 APO lens, which suits a more tightly framed view.

Every current camera from a major brand is good, so size, handling, and the lens range matter more than the badge. Hold a few in a shop if you can, and see buying used if you want to save money.
