New Leica film camera rumored to be announced in October


I have been reporting for a while about a new Leica M film camera that will replace the current Leica MP model. The first rumors indicated a new “cheap” M film version, but I think it is safe to assume that the new camera will not be cheap.

A press event is already scheduled for October in Germany and I was told that invitations are sent out. I expect other new Leica products to be released at that event.

The new Leica M film camera is also already been tested by photographers in the field.

Stay tuned for more info.

Both the Leica MP and M-A film cameras have been hard to find and are out of stock in the US:
