Gorgeous

After using the SL system, I wanted to try a digital rangefinder and now I?m hooked. Manual focus is a slightly slower and more deliberate style of shooting, which has improved my photography and boosted my enjoyment. This m-system is so compact, that I keep it with me at all times. Pricey, but definitely worth it for the serious shooter.

One Surprising Feature

I bought this Leica model for landscape and architecture work where high resolution is often needed. I did not know that I could control the camera with the Fotos App. Looking forward to making close to the ground shots with the macro elmar.

Perfection in Black

It’s a Leica with 40 megapixels and a near silent shutter. What more do you need to know? Best camera I’ve ever used. I can’t seem to put it down, it’s just a objet d’art.

    Optionally triggered at the 1st or 2nd shutter curtain

  • Flash sync time

    1/180 s; slower shutter speeds can be used, if working below sync speed: Automatic changeover to TTL linear flash mode with HSS-compatible Leica system flash units

Leica M10-R Silver

The Leica M10-R.

The Leica M10-R is the latest version of the company’s legendary rangefinder camera: complete with a new 40 megapixel full frame color sensor and all the improvements of the entire generation of M10 cameras. Each and every engineering development and design accomplishment of 3+ years of M camera development has been distilled into this new model. The M10-R reaches new heights of image quality with even improved high-ISO performance and increased dynamic range.

Deeper, Richer, More Detailed Images.

Deeper, Richer, More Detailed Images.

The M10-R allows its users to dive deeper into their images and pull out more detail and richness from their storied Leica M-Lenses. The M10-R is perfect for photographers who want the maximum image quality and the ultimate Leica M rangefinder experience.

Stronger Bokeh.

Stronger Bokeh.

Its base sensitivity of ISO 100, combined with fast Leica M-Lenses, makes it easy and flexible for shooting wide open and achieving maximum background blur and strong bokeh even in bright daytime light.

16 minute long exposure time

More Creative Freedom.

The new sensor allows for a longer maximum exposure time of 16 minutes, lending the user more creative freedom when capturing star trails, motion blur or bringing out the tiniest amount of light in a nighttime landscape. All of this versatility at these new heights of resolution and higher dynamic range make the M10-R an imaging powerhouse for any application.
