It also depends on whether an M10 Monochrome will come out. Thus far, the M246 and the MM1 are very different. The prices I've seen for the MM1 in very good condition on eBay and in buy/sell sections of forums (fredmiranda.com) are already trending in the upper $3,000s to lower $4,000s. I just paid $3700 for a mint silver chrome version and consider it a bargain. I think the CCD sensor will help them hold their value.

The short version is, that the MM1 has more bite and the M246 renders softer at first sight, associated with a longer dynamic range. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I have used neither) Simply put, the main difference to my eye is that the MM1 produces more film like images. The M246 has better dynamic range and improved high ISO performance, but produces images that are more plastic and digital looking. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are lots of people who care a shit about CCD or CMOS, or favor CMOS and still favor the MM1 Edited August 19, 2019 by otto.f Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And individual perceptions. Etc , etc. Pretty soon, we’ll be repeating all the prior discussions here. Jeff 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
