I sold mine after a few months back in 2021. Would like to get another but seem to be pure unobtainium in the UK.....

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

@newtoleica I know what you mean. I only saw two for sale in the UK in 2022: one at mpb and one at lce bristol.

My trick is to seach google images, past week option, and make sure "Leica M10-D" is in quotes otherwise it takes -D as meaning 'exclude the letter D'

There is one advertised in Italy at the moment, but I cannot vouch for it not being a scam or something:

Good luck,  /datsch

My language skills are pretty much non-existent, Datsch, but even I can have a good guess as to what the bit circled means...

On the 'plus' side this screen-grab was taken some 50 mins after your post so perhaps Brendan got in there earlier?

Interesting to see that the M10-D appears to be just as difficult to find as the M-D Typ-262. I wonder if Leica might consider putting-out, say, a couple of thousand M11-D cameras after all?

🤔

Ah! You are quite right, I think 'Venduta' does mean 'sold' in Italian ... oh well ...

Thanks @Flamboyant for those serial numbers and the advert. Interesting that the M10-D had teething problems as well.

 

[leicaoptik]

My M10-D has the number: 5501292, bought new in Dezember 2020

[newtoleica]

7500 Euro.... good grief...

Thanks for the serial numbers! All new to my list except 5492540 which has been on the Arte de Mano cases website, modelling a snazzy half case.

Thanks @david court

I now have serial numbers for 60 cameras.

They are in 29 batches. I am not yet convinced that the m10-d's were all built out to the full 100 per batch. But perhaps there really are 2900 M10-Ds out there, all being happily used.

Mine is 5500377 bought new September 2019

It's been noted that Leica have a bin of hot shoes with serial numbers that they just grab out of a bin, and shared among models being built, so they may be built days apart (or even same day) but not have sequential serial numbers. I could be wrong but that is how I've read they did it in the past.

My M10-D is 54909xx

[MCM1]

My -D is: 5490952.

It's currently sitting in Surrey, UK. I didn't take it on a recent three month road trip in Morocco, but regret it now.
