    David Farkas wrote a new post, Leica M11 Review: The Ultimate Digital M 4 years, 4 months ago

    Leica had a real challenge this time around. In just a little over a decade, the legendary German camera maker had progressed from its first rudimentary attempt at a digital rangefinder camera in the M8 to what I […]

      David,
      You certainly covered a lot of ground with the M11 in a short period of time! Thanks for the terrific review and beautiful images. As I often do with your reviews, I'll be coming back time and time again to re-read the information you have provided. As a side note, your images with the 18mm /3.8 APSH lens have put that one on my wish list – I hadn't really considered buying it before now.
      Best regards

      (XX Mega Pixels) + (XX Bit)s + (XX Blendenstufen) = XX Millions PBB
      or in résumé XX MB 60 MB

      For M11
      60 MP + 14 Bits + 15 Blendenstufen

      See in German language
      mit einer Auflösung von 14 Bit erfasst und die Dynamik erreicht bis zu 15 Blendenstufen.

      with this code, MB instead of MP you give attention to a mix of resolution/Color depth/ Dynamic range . For the M11 you see that the sensor is giving more than 15 for dynamic range, which is new. BR jj

      The M11 does an incredible job at capturing light and makes you feel like you're creating a scene rather than just snapping a shot. Along with the nearly $4,500 Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 lens that Leica provided me, the colors and light that the M11 produced felt like the closest replication to what my eyes saw.

      Nice photos; nice M. But…”ultimate”? I do not think that word means what you think it means. I'm confident that Leica will make another.

      I'm guessing that the Visoflex 2 does not have GPS, since the M11 can get that from the Leica Photos app?

    I tested the 246 a few years ago, but didn't like the images out of camera.

    I read the M10M has addressed this and the out of camera images would look much more similar to the M9M than the 246 did.
