TeleElmar135mm Posted December 10, 2021 Share #3301 Posted December 10, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Autofocus with the M11? Yes, you can sit with the M11 in your auto-mobile and drive forward and backwards and you have auto-focus 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Hi TeleElmar135mm, Take a look here Leica M11 - your next camera? {MERGED}. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
EddieCheddar Posted December 10, 2021 Share #3302 Posted December 10, 2021 This just occurred to me (duh!). If the M11 has a new baseplate, for a new larger battery, that will make the rumored new EVF super usable all day (maybe). Much nicer for us old geezers with aging eyesight. 👀 If that’s the case, I’d be very happy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except a lot of "us" on here like older lenses or lenses mimicking older designs so the message is that the APO or whatever is in no way clinical blah blah so buy one now and dont bother with that old stuff. With the M11 you really must buy it because it is a massive improvement on the m10 blah blah,i mean that must be true because it does not have a baseplate.

Well generically speaking it’s considered easier to upsell than get new clients… but not such a sustainable business model Besides, it’s a new M. Historically that means maybe an extra 1/2 stop at base ISO and about 1.5 stops more ISO range than the last one. Plus some OVF &/or EVF improvement and a deleted feature or two from the previous model. Incumbent users will know if they want that or not, well…. They’ll know if they want to cough up the dough for it anyway 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Barnack Posted December 11, 2021 Share #3311 Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) I had planned on getting an M10R but with the significant upgrade in specs the M11 offers, I have decided to wait and get the M11. I would expect that if the M11 is released this coming January, it will be summer before they are readily available in the U.S. market. Time to get on the waiting list! 😎 Edited December 11, 2021 by Herr Barnack Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue where you are in the world, but historically Leica store Porto (in Portugal!!) seem decent at having stock of new releases at the time of release. That might work out for you if you’re In Europe (or even if you’re not, but but probably easier if you are) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikep996 Posted December 12, 2021 Share #3314 Posted December 12, 2021 I am anxiously awaiting the '11, hoping that all the 10R owners rush to sell those obsolete cameras and jump on the '11 bandwagon creating a glut of used and cheap M10Rs, especially the BP model! So I hope the M11 is announced in the next day or two; I'd like to have an M10R BP by Christmas!!! 🤪 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm lucky to have an M10R and I can't think of anything that it lacks (except that it's not BP). I'd be surprised if the M10R wasn't the end of the Ms for me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. The M10R is tempting, but maybe the M11 is on the next level. Who knows. Not very interested in EVF, video, better LV, IBIS, wifi, etc. My hope for the M11 is better iso performance than the M10R and a lower base ISO. That's it. Just these two things would be a tremendous advantage. Being able to shoot at 1/4000 at f2 and 64 iso would be life-changing. Like sunny 16, but wide open w/o ND filters. And most importantly, to be able to shoot at 12800 and have the same iso performance of the M10 at 800-1600, wow. Do you think it will be possible? It/s (maybe) one extra stop over the M10-R. A better battery life, a fast camera response when switched on, better user profiles management, etc., would be a great addition, of course. But with excellent low light iso and lower base iso, photographically speaking, I don't need more. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
