Welcome to the 21st Century Leica! 5 Stars!

Beautiful and minimalistic design that is all Leica with a number of modern features that raise Leica?s M11 to compete with other dslrs. The color rendition on jpgs, which are not that useful for those who shoot raw, are phenomenal nevertheless. The camera is light and the ergos are good. Waiting for the camera grip and EVF which will make this the perfect camera for most situations. Still not a true long exposure camera, it nevertheless works for landscape and street photography equally well.

A stunning Leica M camera

By MICHAEL B.

An absolutely superb M camera. The sensor is incredible both in resolution but in image quality. This my sixth digital M, and it is the best.

Enhance your photographic journey with the Leica M11 Rangefinder Camera in a striking Glossy Black finish. This exquisite camera seamlessly marries cutting-edge technology with the timeless design elements that have captivated photographers since the introduction of the Leica M3 special edition in 1962. The camera's brass top and base plates are adorned with a glossy black paint finish, which over time, develops a unique patina, adding character and individuality to your device. This exclusive design variant is further distinguished by the classic Leica engraving on the top plate and controls, all finished in glossy black, while the iconic Leica red dot is intentionally omitted for a sleek, understated look. Adding to its elegance, the shutter release boasts a lustrous silver-chrome finish, reminiscent of the original Leica M3, and features intricate cross knurling on the ISO and shutter-speed dials, offering both aesthetic and tactile refinement.

The Leica M11 is a legend reinvented, blending the rich tradition of rangefinder photography with modern advancements to provide unparalleled flexibility and performance. At its core lies a revolutionary full-frame BSI CMOS sensor with Triple Resolution Technology, allowing photographers to capture images in DNG and JPEG formats at 60, 36, or 18 megapixels, all utilizing the full sensor area. The 60-megapixel setting delivers exceptional image quality and detail, while the lower resolutions enhance camera speed, extend burst lengths, and reduce file sizes.

With an expanded ISO range of 64 to 50,000, the Leica M11 excels in diverse lighting conditions, capturing images with a 14-bit color depth and a dynamic range of up to 15 stops. Powered by the Maestro III processor, this camera ensures smooth and responsive operation, even at the highest resolution settings. The optional electronic shutter, capable of speeds up to 1/16,000 of a second, allows photographers to shoot with wide open apertures in bright light without the need for ND filters. For the first time, the M11 introduces multi-field metering in rangefinder mode, providing photographers with an invaluable tool for precise light management.

The Leica M11 Rangefinder Camera in Glossy Black is not just a camera; it's a statement of style and performance, setting a new standard in digital photography as the most versatile, customizable, and powerful M camera Leica has ever crafted.
