📸 Leica M EV1 – A new chapter in M photography
🕰️ Tradition meets innovation
For over seven decades, the Leica M has stood for timeless photography – for a focus on the essentials, masterful craftsmanship and the magic of conscious seeing.
With the new Leica M EV1, Leica is now opening another chapter in this legend:
The first Leica M with an integrated electronic viewfinder (EVF).
👉 It is not a revolution, but a gentle evolution
– a bridge between the past and the future.
A Leica as we know it – only with new eyes.
🔍 A viewfinder that shows what really matters
At the heart of the M EV1 lies the brilliant 5.76 MP OLED viewfinder
– the same one we know from the Leica Q3.
It displays the image exactly as the sensor sees it: clear, high-contrast, true to colour.
The motto is:🌄 Whether in the studio, on the move or in low light – the electronic viewfinder delivers a razor-sharp, realistic image and makes composing shots more intuitive than ever before.
With integrated dioptre adjustment (–4 to +2 dpt) and automatic switching between EVF and LCD, your view of the subject is always perfect.
🧩 Purism in perfection
The Leica M EV1 remains a true Leica – manufactured in Germany without compromise. 🇩🇪
Its magnesium and aluminium body is covered in fine faux leather with a diamond pattern – robust, elegant and unmistakable.
No superfluous controls, no rangefinder window – just pure form and function.
The new image field selector serves as a multifunctional FN lever that directly activates focus aids or zooms.
In addition, five customisable function buttons are available – for absolute control and intuitive operation.
⚙️ Performance meets precision
Inside, a 60 MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor with Triple Resolution Technology is at work – offering a choice of 60, 36 or 18 megapixels.
The powerful Leica Maestro III processor ensures lightning-fast processing, natural colours and impressive dynamic range.
💾 64 GB of internal storage
offers flexibility, complemented by an SD slot (UHS-II, up to 2 TB)
.
All housed in a minimalist, compact body that exudes perfection in true Leica style.
🎯 Focusing – reimagined
Thanks to focus peaking, focus magnification and digital zoom (1.3× / 1.8×), precise manual focusing is now even easier.
Whether with a Summilux-M 1:1.4/35 ASPH. or a Noctilux-M 1:1.25/75 ASPH. – the M EV1 reveals every nuance of sharpness right in the viewfinder.
The FN lever
allows you to switch directly between focus aids without having to go into the menu.
🎛️ This keeps your creative focus where it belongs – on the subject.
🔄 Unlimited compatibility
Of course, the M EV1 remains part of the Leica DNA. ❤️
It is fully compatible with all Leica M lenses – from classic Summicrons to the modern APO series.
With the R-Adapter-M, Leica R lenses can also be used – perfect for anyone who wants to make the most of the diversity of Leica optics.
Whether extreme wide-angle, telephoto or macro – the EVF allows you to work with precision, without the need for an additional viewfinder or display.
🛡️ Leica Content Credentials – authenticity guaranteed
In an age of digital manipulation, Leica is sending a strong message:
The M EV1 saves every shot with Leica Content Credentials
– a forgery-proof signature system compliant with CAI and C2PA standards
.
This ensures every file remains verifiably authentic – and the integrity of your work is protected. 🔐
🌐 Connectivity & Workflow
With Wi-Fi (2.4 / 5 GHz) and Bluetooth 5.0, the M EV1 integrates seamlessly into modern workflows.
📱 Using the Leica FOTOS app, images can be transferred, shared and tagged with geodata.
For professional workflows, tethered shooting with Capture One is also possible.

Leica M11, gloss black finish, including a second free Leica BP-SCL7 battery for the M11
€8,950.00*
Leica M11, gloss black finishExterior design and finish:
The design of the Leica M11 is unmistakable and embodies understated elegance. The camera features the classic Leica proportions – compact, with clean lines and a minimalist look. The body is crafted from a high-strength magnesium alloy, ensuring an excellent balance between robustness and light weight. The glossy black finish (one of the most popular variants) gives the camera a sophisticated yet understated appearance. It is durable yet stylish, making it not only a functional tool but also an aesthetic companion for photographers who value design.
The controls are classic and intuitive: all key functions can be operated via well-placed dials and buttons, allowing the user to immerse themselves fully in the act of photography. The Leica M11 deliberately dispenses with unnecessary buttons and displays, placing the photographer’s control over focus, exposure and ISO at the forefront. The rangefinder is the heart of the camera and enables precise manual focusing. This method of focusing requires a certain degree of experience from the photographer, but rewards them with images that impress with their clarity and attention to detail.
Technology and innovation:
Despite its classic design, the Leica M11 is at the cutting edge of technology. A highlight of the camera is the 60 MP full-frame sensor. This sensor is exceptionally rich in detail and delivers images with astonishing clarity, even at high ISO settings. The M11 also boasts a wide dynamic range, meaning it captures detailed images in both dark and very bright areas.
Leica has deliberately omitted a low-pass filter in the design of the M11. The low-pass filter, which is used in many digital cameras, serves to prevent moiré effects but can slightly impair the sharpness of the images. By omitting this filter, the M11’s images are razor-sharp and incredibly detailed. This makes the M11 a particularly good choice for landscape, architectural and portrait photographers who rely on the highest level of detail.
Another notable feature of the M11 is the new colour optimisation. Leica has specifically optimised the sensor’s colour and tonal range, meaning the M11 is renowned for its reproduction of skin tones and subtle transitions within the colour palette. This gives photographers more precise control over colour reproduction and ensures an even more authentic rendering of subjects.
Viewfinder and Focus:
The classic rangefinder technology of the Leica M11 is one of the most fascinating features for lovers of analogue photography. The rangefinder is bright and precise, with a magnification of 0.73x, which allows the frame to be checked accurately and the focus to be adjusted manually. Parallax compensation ensures that the photographer always sees the correct frame, even when standing at different distances from the subject.
For photographers who want even more precise focusing, the M11 also offers the option to switch to Live View mode. Here, the photographer can check the focus very precisely via the 3-inch LCD touchscreen and also control the exposure. This option is particularly useful when subjects are not close to the rangefinder or when extreme precision is required.
Battery and Connectivity:
The Leica M11 comes with a lithium-ion battery that lasts for around 700 shots per charge, which is quite good for a camera of this type. For a quick power supply, the battery can be charged via the modern USB-C port, making it easier to charge on the go. The camera also supports the Leica FOTOS app, allowing images to be quickly transferred to a smartphone. Bluetooth 5.0 also ensures a stable connection and facilitates remote control of the camera.
Leica’s philosophy:
A central aspect of the Leica M11 is the ‘M-Camera’ philosophy. Leica stands for the idea that photography should not be complicated by automation or too many technical options. Instead, the focus is on the creative process, which fosters the connection between photographer and camera. The M11 requires and encourages manual skills: choosing the right moment, consciously adjusting the aperture and shutter speed, and manual focusing. This direct control allows the photographer to connect with the image and the subject in a deeper way.
Conclusion:
The Leica M11 is one of the last true ‘photographer’s cameras’ on the market. It offers a blend of innovative technology and a clear, minimalist user experience that encourages the photographer to focus more on the act of photography itself and less on technical gimmicks. Those who embrace the Leica M11 will be rewarded with one of the best cameras ever developed – with outstanding image quality, precise handling and the opportunity to engage deeply with their art.
The M11 is designed for photographers who want to capture their images in the best possible way, whilst still combining classic rangefinder technology with all the benefits of the digital world.

FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which Leica M is suitable for beginners?
For beginners, we recommend the Leica M11, as it combines modern sensor technology with classic M handling. The M EV1 is also a good choice if an electronic viewfinder is desired. Both models offer a straightforward introduction to M photography and deliver outstanding image quality.
2. What distinguishes the M11, M11-P and M11 Monochrom from one another?
The M11 is the versatile entry-level model. The M11-P, on the other hand, offers a more understated design, sapphire glass and additional professional features. The M11 Monochrom features a dedicated black-and-white sensor with exceptionally high dynamic range and is aimed at photographers who wish to work exclusively in black and white.
3. How does the Leica M’s rangefinder work?
The optical rangefinder displays the subject without delay. Focus is set manually by aligning two image overlays. This method is considered precise, intuitive and ideal for reportage and street photography.
4. Are Leica M lenses compatible with other Leica systems?
Yes. With adapters, many M lenses can also be used on Leica SL cameras (L-mount). Manual focusing is fully retained, meaning the typical M image aesthetic can also be utilised on a modern autofocus system.
