Hello Martinot,

Right out where you can see it on an M5.

Best Regards,

Thanks! 

Never used or seen an M5. 🙂

Have used M3 and almost all digital M cameras, but never seen it on any of them.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Hello Martinot,

On an M3 the film plane is pretty much the back of the spring loaded rail inside of the flash/accessory shoe.

Best Regards,

Ahh. That explains why I have missed it. Thanks!

Just to wrap this up, here's how it would look with a plimsoll line to show the film/sensor plane:
