The Leica M11-P is the world’s first camera equipped with a function that seamlessly guarantees the authenticity of photographs from the time they are taken to the time they are published.

The technology used in this feature allows images to be authenticated through special hardware within the camera, including a special chipset to store digital certificates issued by the German Federal Printing Office. It is. With this advanced feature, we have created a system that can reliably prove the provenance of images. In this way, Leica is working with our partners at CAI to set new standards in the protection of digital content.
With the “Leica Content Credentials” function, images can be signed using a special algorithm to ensure their authenticity. You can also add the camera model, manufacturer, and information about the image taken. While this information cannot be changed later, it can be checked at any time using open source tools provided free of charge by CAI, so it can be used as proof of the authenticity of the image. In addition to knowing whether an image is the original taken or edited, you can also check the history of what kind of editing has been done. In this way, photographers can demonstrate the authenticity of their photos throughout the entire process, from capture to publication.
The official announcement should be in the next few hours.
