algrove Posted April 7 Share #5 Posted April 7 I liked my SL2S Reporter and Q2 Reporter models. Never underestimate Leica to come out with models to sell to an ever shrinking market base. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SL and Q reporters were not really huge hits Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! but the M10-P was, mostly due to rarity. I had one of those flashlights when I was in the Army in the 1980’s. No cameras then. Great memories though. Robb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SL and Q reporters were not really huge hits but the M10-P was, mostly due to rarity. Based on? Comparative sales figures? FWIW I had the Q2 Reporter, and, after 18 months heavy use with no fraying edges, traded it in for the Q3 43 last autumn. Used Q2 Reporters then were selling for more than the standard finish. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty hard to decide on my own Do you have silver lenses? If so I would be all over the Safari, it looks stunning with silver glass. I also think it will hold it's value better than the Glossy Black moving forward. I'm not a fan of the M11 GB, prefer the standard black or silver version of the M11-P and I also prefer to have the P extras, but as always, subjective. All great cameras.

maxpower Posted April 22 Share #13 Posted April 22 I wonder if the M11-P Safari will be brass based or not, my M10-P Safari has a few patina spots which also looks pretty nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
