Before he was banned, presumably for leaking information(?), a user claimed that the M11-D would not be able to access menus via the visoflex. Take that as you will. 

The banned contributor to this thread said he/she had been corresponding with a previously banned contributor through Instagram.  Might be that both are one and the same person, just setting up a different access name for fun, and the mods found out 🤣

I do find it amusing that there is so much discussion on what specs this camera might (or might not) have when no one knows if any of the rumours are true.  Leica Rumours website wouldn't give Nostradamus a run for his money!

But I do really like the contribution from @Datsch albeit I guess more than a small dose of wishful thinking.  Shame because the mock up looks brilliant.  How do you do that?

tomorrow in a month we should know if/when/how the new M11-D is going to be announced in Wetzlar - according to rumours over the last few months !  but recent news and noise in this respect thinned a bit and turned pretty quiet...  what do people think about this ?  is this the silence before the storm ?

This happens with monotous regularity - these dates come and go, with little happening.  If Leica is releasing something, noramlly there is an event with invitation to the great and good …

Some of the speculation appears to be more in hope than expectation, perhaps by those who want it to happen.  Leica Rumours added some fuel to the fire, but they are not the modern day equivalent of Nostradamus!  Of course, we can anticipate something to mark the 70th anniversary of the M, but I doubt this will be a plain vanilla D update.

My guess - and it is only a wild guess because my name isn't Steven - is for something truly special and truly expensive.

I guess it’s the silence before the gentle breeze. No built-in thumb rest (fake lever), black paint and slightly below 10 grand (€). 😅 That's what a source was willing to share. And an indication of some sort of special feature. Probably the other ISO dial functionality already discussed here.

well, if one learns to really search the internet, then one can find lots of cool info  in public records, visoflex 2 and thumb-rest are listed as accessories

sounds good, @frame-it, thank you for the news !  one months from now... !

i hope that label you found is true : "Type No.:2221" ?  mine stands currently at "Type No.:9217" - Leica clocks move backwards apparently...?

moreover, i am very curious how Leica's own thumbrest will look !  i saw the one from Honkong, looks a bit clumsy to me.  do you have any web links to offer ?

Then we'd better keep quiet about the real story, the shock early release of the M12 next week...
