LeicaR10 Posted May 20, 2024 Share #241 Posted May 20, 2024 Advertisement (gone after registration) I predict the last edition will be marketed as the Special Edition M11 Black Paint, Freeze Free, File Loss Free, 100% Reliable, and takes photographs with no color shift..blah, blah, blah. So get your black AMEX cards cleared and ready in the coming year or so for a easy $10K USD...for a rangefinder camera that will actually work.

Advertisement Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Hi LeicaR10, Take a look here M11-D?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
costa43 Posted May 20, 2024 Share #242 Posted May 20, 2024 5 minutes ago, Kiwimac said: I asked my dealer. A new Monochrom is just shy of NZ$18,000 now. He suggested any special editions etc of the 11 would exceed $20,000 and the 12 might too. At that point, they officially become stupidly expensive. IMO. For me, they are already stupidly overpriced at 9k euro for what they are but I will pay it (for now at least) and Leica knows this very well!

evikne Posted May 20, 2024 Share #243 Posted May 20, 2024 (edited) I guess the rumored M11-D black paint is actually a regular M11 black paint that will come later. Edited May 20, 2024 by evikne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have asked Kanto for a black paint to my m11 black chrome. They quoted $750 USD which is reasonable, but 24 months waiting which I didn’t accept. Now I’m reconsidering that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with new M11, M11-P and M11-R already produced and packed. Not for me, since if the outer box has been opened (by anyone) I will return it immediately.

darlesch Posted May 23, 2024 Share #248 Posted May 23, 2024 As expected the FW has released with freeze issues apparently fixed. Any day now for the M11-D. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenykepesz Posted May 23, 2024 Share #250 Posted May 23, 2024 (edited) showy announcement is one thing - carrying it around is another one. in that respect i am perhaps glad i couldn't sell my m10d yet as of today - and who knows when the m11d begin to drizzle in at our local Leica Boutique. for the mean time i will still need a camera at hand for my occasional snapshots here and there, once in a while...

Indeed, every one of Wetzler’s fingerprints bears his name: „Jeder Fingerabdruck trägt meinen Namen“ - https://weingut-wetzler.de But out of curiosity, why would you want a winemaker to handle your new camera? Does it leave a particular patina on the leatherette? And assuming he’d pour enough wine into it, does it result in double exposures? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinjoe Posted May 29, 2024 Share #252 Posted May 29, 2024 I've heard the Leica M11-D was delayed till June and I think Leica Rumors said delayed for a month back when they thought it was coming out May 16th. Anyone have any inside info on what day it might get released now? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's frustrating that they delayed (if they did indeed to originally announce on May 16). Hopefully there will be more news soon. I am finally ready to move from my M10-R to M11 but I really don't want to buy an M11-P to have an M11-D announced soon after. But it does appear that Leica Rumors just got their hands on the QuickStart guide for M11-D: https://leicarumors.com/2024/05/31/here-is-the-upcoming-rumored-leica-m11-d-camera.aspx/ and actually you can download the full QuickStart guide from Leica at: https://leica-camera.com/sites/default/files/pm-110460-leica_m11-d_qsg.pdf Edited June 1, 2024 by kevinjoe 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IkarusJohn Posted June 1, 2024 Author Share #257 Posted June 1, 2024 Interesting photos - no faux winder, ISO on the back and a different topdeck from the M11. I wonder if the illustrations reflect the final product … Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Blanko Posted June 1, 2024 Share #258 Posted June 1, 2024 The missing ISO dial on the top plate would maybe provide some space for an EVF, hybrid of course, in an M12-D? That would be cool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
evikne Posted June 1, 2024 Share #259 Posted June 1, 2024 (edited) I'm relieved that at least the Leica engraving still seems to be on the top plate. I've heard some hints that it would be gone too. Edited June 1, 2024 by evikne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
