I have read very little about the Leica M11 P - will it arrive? Just a Leica M11 monochrome with a color sensor..🙏🏻

will it arrive? yes! 🙄

when? who knows. sure could be any moment, but since the m11m was just released i doubt the M11-p will be released in this month still

 

question....why? does the m10,R,m11 dont take good images anymore?

Yes definitely. Even my Leica M9 takes good pictures. But I have to admit that I always fall a little in love with special e.g. black paint. There is also more built-in memory in the Leica M Monochrom - which probably also comes in an M-P. But really, all cameras take good pictures today. It doesn't even have to be Leica. My Nikon D800E is also ok. But the market is such that in order to sell more, you improve each model with small things and we customers jump on it every time... 😂🫣

I was flicking through some old images recently from the M9. For portraits to 24x16” or even 30x20”, its rendering really is beautiful and very “natural”. A lot to be said about that specific sensor and pixel count, in hindsight. For some subjects, especially portraits, I’m not sure the technological advances always added that much to image quality that I personally like!

Would really doubt this will be happening this year as the M11M and Q3 were recently released. This would be too much in a short time frame! 

They still need to Have further ammo to stretch this through the overall product lifecycle 😉

Guess it will look something like this. Sapphire screen and 256K built-in memory?  Maybe black paint? The P versions on the M9 and M240 were paint, but they seem to be restricting that option to only very special editions now.

I think you are spot on regarding the aesthetics but what's got me somewhat perplexed  is the innards. Safe to say gone are the days when a sapphire screen and no red dot was enough to get a "P" designation. the only direct clue we have now is from the M11 Monochrom, with its 256gb of internal storage and ahem, a sapphire screen.

Safe bet we will see both on the 11-P but dare I hope for the Maestro IV processor in the Q3? it would be a first for Leica to upgrade the processor mid-cycle but then again the M10-R with its mid-cycle resolution bump was a first.

Just got a notification from FedEx... Maybe the P is on its way? I never lose hope.

M9 is a capable camera with one limitation I can’t find solution  ( shutter sound is louder and I was taking photos inside a quiet temple and I felt a bit embarrassed as shutter sound altered the subject who stared at me with unpleasant face ).  
 

I still have M9 which is for family photos and I am now looking for M10-P for street photography.
