I feel like the majority of M users would prefer 24 megapixels with better low light. If low light is still great and Leica plans on using this sensor for more products, I guess it would make sense as an investment, but it kinda seems like they’re quickly jumping on the “more is better” bandwagon, when the M system has notoriously represented the opposite.

I agree with you. For many Leica users, it’s not about the technical sharpness or even the colors, per se. It’s actually about the imperfections, the fall off of light , the rendering of shadows, and how, when used with intention, these elements make for special images. 24mp is, so far in my experience, the upper limit for letting these elements naturally express themselves.

I greatly admire the analog Leica cameras (as I admire other analog/vintage/limited edition models), and if you really want to have a great camera and shoot film, maybe a limited edition that belonged to a photographer who inspired you, then a $8200 price may be justified, maybe - though I wouldn't pay it myself, but ok, to some people it might mean a lot and it is a piece of history. But when we're talking a digital mirrorless system in a retro camera body, let's see if we can justify an $8,2k price: The camera looks amazing when it's sitting on a table but has poor ergonomics when you hold it and almost no custom controls, which complicates its operation, a 1 million dot LCD and 2.4 million dot EVF that comes as a separate accessory - both of these are marketed as "high resolution" on their website, but honestly, I think we all know that almost any camera brand out there offers better LCD/EVF quality for how much less? The EVF accessory blacks out when taking photos which makes you wonder how does that work with a "burst" shot mode of 4.5 images/sec (are we serious?) I wouldn't even mention that - what is the rate of keeper frames on a rangefinder camera, and why would you even need a 4.5 frame a second feature, not to mention a rangefinder configuration limits the scenarios you could use a mirrorless system in, which makes you wonder how frustrating it can get when you realized how much you paid for a decidedly low rate of keeper frames. I'm also willing to bet Leica does not manufacture their sensors in-house so there is a good chance they have a custom-made and unbranded Sony sensor in the camera, that probably costs around the same price point as the sensor in the a7RIII or something. But there is no mention anywhere who manufactures Leica's sensors and Leica doesn't want you to start thinking about the electronics in their cameras because then you start doing the math and begin to realize that the price just doesn't add up. It's like they are the Apple of cameras. They'd much rather you thought of their $8200 camera as an ethereal entity descended from heaven, unmatched by competition, that will just make you a better photographer. That is simply not true. When you do the math, and add up the cost of the electronics in the camera, the cost of the camera body, the material, the paint, the lens and optics, I'm willing to bet you end up somewhere in the range of $1800 - $2000 if not slightly lower, not to mention that UHS-I on a camera of this price is simply insulting. Leica is piggybacking on their amazing analog legacy and adding a $6000 markup at minimum to their mirrorless lineup, but falls short to impress in my book. That is also not a very healthy long-term strategy. Just look at the swiss watch industry, which is now reeling as it begins to be replaced by smartwatches. History has taught us that you either adapt or pay the price. If Leica charged around $2000 for these cameras, that would be a really attractive value proposition for someone who wants to try something different. But $8200? I don't think so. To me this is a dishonest approach towards their target audience, who may have more money than the average consumer, but that still doesn't justify this practice. In my eyes at least, Leica's mirrorless cameras are a very confused offer, trying to cater to inexperienced but wealthy enthusiasts that care much more about the camera as a fashion statement, than what they can do with the camera, or what the camera can do for them. Also, what do you do with 40MP on a hand-held compact camera body? 40MP can be incredibly demanding on the lens, in terms of resolving details and can single out any issues with optical distortion or chromatic aberration, so that lens better be perfect. Who is this camera for again? Well paid lawyers from Switzerland who have no time to research cameras perhaps.

Benj Haisch I love the idea of the Leica but so unaffordable. So I decided to train for using a Leica in some future time and my training is as follows. I took my Nikon D3500 (the cheapest Nikon DSLR) added a Nikon 28mm f2.8 D Lens and every control is then set manually. The speed setting is controlled on the camera along with the rangefinder focusing. The aperture is set on the lens and light control is by using an old lightmeter. I found the photography slower but more creative and focusing was surprisingly easy. I love the 42mm view I get with this focal length which fits well with the urban subjects. Since starting this I have also purchased (used) the Nikon 28mm f1.8G lens which I love to but the full manual process is worthwhile. That’s me done.

Thanks for the photos and the overview of the new M. I have the M10 Monochrom and, as pointed out in the Red Dot Forum video on that camera, the high ISO performance of the new sensor (which was developed parallel to the one in the M10 R) allows you to set the camera to always use a faster shutter speed to avoid the effect of camera shake without giving up anything on image quality. I've tried that out on the Monochrom and it seems to work just fine. Also, as you noted, the sensor reflects the advances in technology since the previous 24 MP sensor was developed and that alone may be reason enough for some folks to want to upgrade to the new model. I agree the Visoflex is getting a little long in the tooth and I try to avoid using mine. I mainly use the rangefinder, which is kind of the point anyway. For walking-around photography I simply stop down and use either hyperfocal or zone focussing. Finally, it is also worth noticing that both the M10 Monochrom and M10-R are actually lower priced than the other models.
@erlantzbilbao95504 жыл бұрын
First. Nobody (unless doing commercial work) really needs 40Mp, I think with 24 we were just fine. Second. Stop complaining about the visoflex. These cameras are not conceive to shoot wit it. Just use the viewfinder or use a different camera. Third. Everything you complain about is because you really want the Leica M's to be a different camera. So go and use a different one! These cameras are not meant to photograph macro, sports, studio work, you name it .... You can, but they are not meant to be used for that. There is only one thing they are good at, and they are really good at it (probably the best camera for the job) ... Reportage. Yes there are photographers that use Leica M's for other than reportage, but we all know they are not really conceive for that. So, please, stop complaining. These cameras don't need to change. Please use the right tool for the job and don't pretend that all the camera manufacturers make the same cameras. Btw, big fan of you guys. Just not when you review a Leica M camera, LOL

So while this camera lacks the H and Q keys it makes up for it in the exquisite tactile feel of the F and Y keys where the travel and smoothness has been refined by no less than 69%. Decades of research have culminated in space age technologies like the new bottom und TTL bung also known as the Buttplug, a second coming for the history and knuckle skin filled film loading doors of our heritage cameras. In homage to our heritage we have unveiled a bountiful ISO range of 374 to 452, more than enough to photograph newly polished dental chair rails in the morning light. Our new Givesnofux viewer attachment is a cable to nowhere and represents the zen state that Cartier Bresson achieved after a heavy cream brunch. While this camera has no actual price, we suggest reserving your place in line with a monthly contribution of one first born child and the blood of several sinners.

You're absolutely right. Most people who buy cameras post the pictures on KZfaq, Instagram or Facebook! They only need a camera with less than 2MP do that. Indeed, very very few photographers require more than 16MP, and hence why the forthcoming Sony will have only 12MP!
@bsmukler4 жыл бұрын
Leica will continue to produce the M10-P with 24MP sensor. They view the M10-R as an additional option for those who want the higher resolution, for example for landscape photography. Check out the two videos Leica published upon the release of the new camera.

Have an x pro 3...not sure if this is worth the price difference. Huge respect for leica build quality, but frankly the fuji is just about equal.....just not the "lable" or "status" ..... sort of an old story. But funds are not infinite for many of us. I wanted to switch but this camera is simply too expensive. That simple. If 2000 or 3000 dollars.....then it would be a fair fight...and Leica would win. But not by much.

Voigtlander lens + a used m240 = $3K and you have a Leica experience. A former fuji shooter here. You won't know until you try. Easy to sell and get all your money back if it doesn't work for you. I don't care about the logo, have it covered. But it's a different world unlike anything else.

The Leica M series are interesting beasts for sure. I keep lusting after one, even though when the M10 came out and I demo'd one from the NYC store during PhotoPlus in 2017 (finally being able to afford the body and three lenses). I made the decision to stick with my Pen-F's and small M Zuiko Premium primes for my walkabout kit because I am so spoiled by autofocus. The M10R continues to psychologically tug at my heart, which confuses my analytical brain. I think Hugh Brownstone said it best (summarizing & paraphrasing here) "I want one, but it makes no sense". Maybe it's time to sell a bunch of the old medium format film stuff and at least pick up a used first gen M10 and a used 50 just to scratch that itch... I knew I shouldn't have watched your video, Chris :-p (actually, thank you, it was well done!)

There will be probably very few people watching your video nowadays, being that the M10-R is now old news as even the M11 is; however I had to come here to see what I'll be getting by an upgrade from M10 (purchased used in 2019 but received until late 2021 thanks to some Ch***se that released a bioweapon) to a now _"accessible"_ for me "pre-owned" M10-R. As things stand in lookout I'll be chucking out ~$800 on the upgrade. So far, having neither received my _"excellent-plus"_ M10-R with all boxes and accessories plus an extra batttery, nor having yet put on the block my 2018-ish M10 is likewise condition, I feel -after watching your clip- that the upgrade price is reasonable. Certainly the humongous 40mp files that will come out of it will be superfluous 99% of the time, and only serve as storage hogs; but maybe -just maybe- that 1% of the files will allow me to reframe, or even crop and resize, and get a usable 11x17 out of 50% of the file. Kudos to you for your frank opinions! I was pretty much born into Leica with my father's IIIf which he reluctantly loaned to me for a trip to Europe when I finished college. I returned it unscathed six weeks later swearing I would get me a modern camera, which I did by buying a Spotmatic with a 50mm/1.4 Super-Takumar that soon expanded into a full system. However, at my father's demise in '96 his IIIf was given to me by my mother (nobody else knew what to do with it nor wanted to) and I got hooked on the concept. In 2001 I got an M6 and from there it was a black downhill track to where I stand now. So far I don't print wet anymore, almost never shoot MF film, and the little 35mm film I shoot with my Leicas and Nikons (just for spleen, probably) get prompt process (RA4 & B&W) so they can be converted to pixels and printed digitally or shared in the net. It's good to see DPReview including hybrid workflows. Film, specially RA4 and B&W well processed and archivally stored doesn't suffer from the fragility of the digital media. With 50 years of darkroom experience, both B&W and color, I have a huge legacy of memories and beautiful images that will reach my grand-grandchildren. It's a pity that the much better (technically) digital images probably won't. Will be sure to comment on the M10-R here when it finally arrives. Thanks for the good work!
