New Leica camera to be announced this week

By LR admin | Published: November 9, 2020

One of the German photo retailers will hold an online event on November 11, 2020, where Olaf Wolf from Leica will be presenting at 5:30pm CET online (Live Lounge) and most likely talk about a new Leica camera. You can see a list of all upcoming Leica cameras here. The Leica Q2 James Bond 007 is probably delayed, the Leica M10-P “Reporter” was almost announced, and the SL-S is expected later this year – so you can easily figure out what’s coming next.
