Photokina 2012: Leica has announced its latest M series rangefinder - the 24MP CMOS Leica M. The company says all future M models will also simply be called the 'M'. The latest model (referred to as 'Typ 240') becomes the first of its rangefinders to feature live view, and offers a choice of magnified view or focus peaking for precise through-the-lens focusing, allowing Leica to promise compatibilty with R-mount lenses. It also becomes the first M capable of movie shooting - capturing 1080p footage at 25 or 24 frames per second. It includes a 920k dot LCD with smartphone-style Gorilla Glass cover, and accepts the same plug-in EVF as used by the X2.

Et ce n'est pas la seule nouvelle.

Un EVF qui ressemble étrangement à celui d'Olympus...

Photokina 2012: Leica has announced a more affordable rangefinder: the Leica M-E. Built around the familiar full-frame 18MP CCD, the company describes the M-E as being a stripped-back camera, offering just the basics required for photography. Its core specifications are essentially the same as the M9's, including an ISO range of 160-2500, 0.68x magnification viewfinder, and the same 230k dot 2.5" screen. It'll be available from Leica dealers later this month with a retail price in the UK of £3900.

J'avais vu ça, intéressant... Les occases de M9 ne vont pas tarder à baisser... Quelqu'un cherche un M8 d'ici quelques mois?!


A côté, M paraît bien sympathique sur la feuille (les avantages du télémetre, et ceux des "EVIL"... Mais il y a toujours comme un hic avec le Leica neuf!
