Product description:
The Leica M10 Monochrom "Leitz Wetzlar" edition is a limited release of the M10 Monochrom. Lens sold separately.
A new dimension of black-and-white photography
With a newly developed 40-megapixel black-and-white sensor, the Leica M10 Monochrom offers unrivaled sharpness and resolution in all lighting conditions.
Improved detail rendition for greater image quality
The fact that no color filter arrays are required means that there are fewer layers of glass and filter to impede the transmission of light or cause deflections. This is especially advantageous in a traditional rangefinder camera and results in decreased, fine-grained image noise.
The M10 Monochrom delivers an exceptionally broad sensitivity range - from ISO 160 to ISO 100,000, while retaining full detail with the finest grain. This enormous sensitivity spectrum enables imagery with an extremely broad dynamic range - yielding results with areas of shadow and illumination clearly defined, particularly when shooting in uneven, high-contrast light.
Understated and discreet for low-profile shooting
The M10 Monochrom lives in a body technically identical with the M10-P range. The pared-back look and almost inaudible shutter make photographing with the M10 Monochrom a most discreet experience, ideal for capturing authentic moments without drawing attention to yourself.
The strict omission of any color-inlaid engravings further emphasizes the camera’s monochrome character.
Utilising the full scope of the camera’s capability
With its high-resolution image sensor and faithful detail rendition, the Leica M10 Monochrom has significantly raised the bar in terms of camera quality and performance. This, in turn, means that only equally high-capacity lenses will be able to utilise all of the camera’s performance reserves. Leica’s M lenses — globally recognised as the world’s best full-frame lenses - are the perfect match for the Leica M10 Monochrom, giving rise to an exceptionally high-performance combination.
Our Verdict
The Leica M10 Monochrom M10M Camera delivers on all counts, with higher resolution, wider dynamic range and greater ISO capabilities. The body is a thoughtful development of the previous model and the much loved colour rangefinder. The M10 provides a user friendly shooting experience with easy to navigate touch LCD interface. The design of the body lives up to Leica's reputation for retro minimalist chic appeal together with a durable metal frame which will last for decades.
At first glance this Monochrom may appear to be a particularly niche camera, however there is still huge demand for black and white photography, particularly with photographers who deliver prints. We believe this release will appeal to a broad range of fine art, wedding, portrait, architectural and even street photographers who demand the highest level of detail in their images. Photographers who deliver black and white print reproductions to their customers will find this camera extremely desirable indeed, particularly those with access to R and M-mount lenses
