Available for pre-orders at BH for 3.995 USD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xavier Posted June 27, 2019 Share #42 Posted June 27, 2019 23 hours ago, colonel said: Leica will make more if there is a demand. Or they could have limited it due to parts available. Nevertheless their strategy is to have a budget M digital available and its now the privilege of the M-E 240 I approve of this strategy. Why not allow folk to enjoy the rangefinder experience without sacrificing their second car ... Yes, I approve the strategy too, except that if they make it a limited edition only few can purchase, I would actually not say "this release counts" towards such a strategy. We shall see. Also, I was thinking about what they did in the past. After selling a new M (like M9, M240) for a few years, they would release a cheaper version (ME, M262), and I wish they did that for the M10 rather than on the M240 again (in particular, retaining the smaller body size). In fact, my plan was to stay on my M9 until Leica releases such a body or I come across a reasonably priced M10 (and we are far from this). But maybe it is still a bit early for that...

Maybe when the M11 is on the market Leica will release a M-E 10. So just some patience 🙂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoiDuNord Posted June 28, 2019 Share #44 Posted June 28, 2019 looks like around $4000 USD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardgrimm Posted August 5, 2019 Share #45 Posted August 5, 2019 I understand the M-E 240 is essentially an M 240 but has anyone done an actual hands-on review? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
