The latest Leica rumors: SL2, M10X, M with EVF, APO Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 Asph lens

By LR admin | Published: May 6, 2019

Some Leica rumors coming from new sources:

The new Leica SL2 will not be announced in June but more likely in the 3rd quarter of 2019 – 47MP with similar sensor to the new Leica Q2.
No new Leica M11 in 2020 but there could be a new Leica M10X with a 47MP sensor rumored for Photokina 2020 (not sure what X stands for – maybe “xtra resolution”).
New Leica M mount camera with EVF is rumored to be in the works (already rumored before here): 24MP sensor, body similar to the M240. The camera will have a native M mount and will be offered as an alternative to the M10 (the pictures above are just a concept sent in by a reader).
New Leica APO Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 Asph lens with closer focusing capabilities (not close enough for macro photography).
