I guess you are saying that it has 64GB INT? Too bad as they must still have some in stock. 64GB would be more meaningful if they put the SL3S sensor w/o AF obviously in an Mxx with 24MP sensor.

Yes I think the GB is still in production but could be wrong. I’m assuming that the base models have been turned into GB models to shift stock.

willemr Posted April 9 Share #45 Posted April 9 That's weird. I just bought a new M11-P with a 1500 euro discount. Would have thought that this would happen to the M11 OG. I asked if it was a late April fools day joke (I did the inquiry on April 2nd). All the sales person could say is that their supplier (I guess the distributor) wanted to clear the shelves. The discount should run till April 16th, but I checked today and the discount is removed. They sold their stock, but it's not listed as discontinued. Another thing is that the (official) trade-in value of my old M10 (black) dropped around 400 euros in roughly one month. A friend of mine (with a much newer M10 silver) was offered even less (300-400 euros below mine). We eventually sold ours for roughly 1500-2000 more than the offered trade-in price. So something is afoot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
T25UFO Posted April 9 Share #46 Posted April 9 We are less than halfway through the 100 year anniversary. Plenty of time for more limited edition special editions. It has to get better than City Engraved models and expensive teddy bears. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandro Posted April 9 Share #47 Posted April 9 Advertisement (gone after registration) When I bought my M11 some three weeks ago at Leica Store Amsterdam they told me that the price was lowered because the M11 will be discontinued. Apparently the M11-P is so succesful that there is no need anymore for the M11, so they said. Lex 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Nobody really wants the model with a very small buffer/memory, the cellphone-grade screen, and the red dot. And yet, this predictable cycle of "intro model" and "better model" is what Leica has done since the M8.2 and M9. D Edited April 9 by dante Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcaslis Posted April 10 Share #49 Posted April 10 I disagree with that. The larger internal memory (no buffer difference) is no issue for me, I use SD cards. The screen doesn't matter because I had an M11 monochrom that in 1 day got a scratch with their sapphire screen that I did not get in 2 years with the M11. Additionally I prefer the look of the M11 to the M11-P so I disagree with pronouncements like this. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D I don’t believe that there is any difference in the size or speed of the buffer between the M11 models as they use the same processor and can shoot to internal of fast SD storage. Also 64gb internal memory is not “very small” in my thinking. I believe it’s good for 700 plus full size DNG’s which is more than a day’s shoot for many/most people. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakontil Posted April 10 Share #52 Posted April 10 All the M10’s bodies have been converted to black paint and they can sell for more 😀 price increase without attracting too much attention Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
la1402 Posted April 10 Share #53 Posted April 10 I would not read too much into this. The M11s discontinuance could just be a portfolio rationalization, which is typical for a difficult economic environment. I am also not surprised about reduced trade-in prices. Selling Leica gear at reasonable prices has become difficult over the last half year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buffer is actually the same and the screen is actually less likely to shatter. The logo can be taped over of course . The M11 sold more then the 11p by some margin I understand. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
costa43 Posted April 10 Share #57 Posted April 10 (edited) The M11 and M11-P are essentially the same camera but I do think the majority of people buying today will opt for the P model, besides the upgraded memory and screen, it will likely hold it's value a little better too. It's the same old story with Leica, there is nothing new here that we have not seen before. They design an M and then churn out twin siblings in different outfits for 5 years.

I had to check the URL to reassure myself that this isn't a joke or scam site. It's a special edition of 500, but I can't believe there would really be 500 people stupid enough (apologies to any Forum members who've already ordered one) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
