Leica mirrorless camera mockup (not the new CL)
The already rumored new Leica mirrorless L-mount camera with EVF and code name “CLooney” could actually be called “Leica CL“.
I still expect the official announcement before the end of the year. The new model will be made in Germany and was already registered with the Indonesian telecommunication agency under the code name 7323. The camera is rumored to have the same 24MP ASP-C sensor from the TL2.
Voigtlander officially announced a new NOKTON 40mm f/1.2 Aspherical VM lens for Leica M-mount and a new 40mm viewfinder. Sample photos can be found here. The US pricing of the lens is not yet announced, but Voigtlander also has a Sony E-mount version of the same lens that is currently priced at $1,059:

The previously rumored Leica THAMBAR-M 90mm f/2.2 lens is now officially announced. Pre-orders are now open, the US price is $6,495:
The design of the original Thambar lens has been almost completely preserved in the new Thambar-M 90 mm f/2.2. The black paint finish, the proportions of the lens and its aperture engravings in red and white are nearly identical, while slight modifications align with the design of modern M-Lenses. The most pronounced difference between this lens and the original is the single-coating to protect the glass against environmental influences and surface corrosion. Additional information on the old THAMBAR lens can be found here.
