The m60 was a trial to see the desire for a new kind of camera: the m-d. It got its following.

Interesting thought.  Do you have a source for this?

In an exchange with Jono Slack at the time the M Edition 60 was released, he was suggesting to Leica that they do a production release, rather than a special edition.  I agreed with him - the whole white gloves thing rather put me off.  The M-D came a few months later.

I seriously wonder what Leica will come up with where they limit production to 100 units as in camera bodies. Something must be in the works.

Then again perhaps they will come out with a new model with a limit of 2025 bodies.

Btw- Leica has released Leica/Steiff collabs in the past, if you look at the current selling prices of the previous editions of Leica Steiff bears they are far better investments than most Leica camera gear by a good percentage.

No, it was what I thought, cause the m60 was first.

Has anyone seen the bears for sale online anywhere? I clicked through as soon as I got the email, but they were already showing as sold out. Did they actually release? Any online releases still coming up? I'd love a New York edition M11, but I feel like the price will be out of my range. 

They slightly underestimated demand and only made one of each bear model. They didn't anticipate that you would want one as well :D

They aren't even in the store yet....

In any case, the 100 edition looks very like the discontinued M11 chrome repainted in black with silver dials

Here is something worth having. The new compact version of Henri Cartier-Bresson's book "The Decisive Moment." I ordered a few of theses as it is supposed to have some updates about the books production and what happened since. And it is a good size, and a good gift to give to some enthusiasts.

Order from Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation in Paris (English or French version available). Only 42 Euro, which is a steal.

Thank you for the link - I would not have found this.  Book ordered, £47 in the UK including postage.  Excellent!  Much better than any of the Leica 100 products.
