Advertisement Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 Hi anickpick, Take a look here New: Leica M11 Monochrom. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
intermediatic Posted April 16, 2023 Share #22 Posted April 16, 2023 Any estimates on how long until it starts appearing in stores? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minochage Posted April 16, 2023 Share #23 Posted April 16, 2023 Yes I pre-ordered Leica M11 Monochrom at Leica Store Kyoto. Looking forward to using my 1st digital Leica with my conventional Leica M3 since 2011. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

albireo_double Posted April 17, 2023 Share #25 Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) Walked in on Saturday and bought the demo unit. Of course after previous arrangement with the country head of sales. Took first shots on Sunday, with APO50. Now searching for some vintage glass that has not attained collector status yet (why did I ever sell the 35/2 8-element...it would have rivalled bitcoin as an investment). Further testing planned for coming Sunday, with a lovely model. Edited April 17, 2023 by albireo_double Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes US- No, I didnt pre-order the M11M, but she called me anyway to let me know they had it in stock....because she is awesome! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymc226 Posted April 18, 2023 Share #30 Posted April 18, 2023 I just picked up mine at Leica Los Angeles today 4 days after putting my name down. Leica Boston just called today saying they have one available as well; put my name on the list at the same time. Just call your closest Leica Boutique. It seems the wait time will be minimal, if any. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotium Posted April 19, 2023 Share #31 Posted April 19, 2023 Seen it available in multiple places, does not seem to be any lack of supply. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re lucky because in the US, the camera comes with WB settings, too. https://leicacamerausa.com/leica-m11-monochrom.html We don’t get those in the European version https://leica-camera.com/sites/default/files/pm-93570-DE_Datenblatt_M11-Monochrom.pdf 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberti Posted April 21, 2023 Share #35 Posted April 21, 2023 About WB @Chaemono, wouldn't it be handsome 😉 to adapt the color sensitivity in a monochrome camera depending on the environmental light color (evening is different from daylight ..)? The M11 can do that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted April 21, 2023 Share #36 Posted April 21, 2023 They solved that by providing a Green, Red and Blue lens filter in the box and file-merging in the firmware. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxpower Posted April 21, 2023 Share #38 Posted April 21, 2023 I played around with the M11M today and it is very nice, if I didn't already have an M10M I would be more tempted. For my usage it doesn't make sense to do an expensive upgrade unfortunately, even though there is plenty there that I would have liked to have as well. i was also reminded about how light the black M11/M11M feels, I don't mind my silver M11 weight but it is a very noticeable difference. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M11 for me Posted April 21, 2023 Share #40 Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) For me its less the question of ABSOLUTE weight but to the same extent the question about how equilibred I can carry the camera. For me light lenses are more important. With all of this in my head I decided for a silver M11 in January 2022 when I bought my new M. Sorry if that is a bit off topic.
