Leica is rumored to announce a new M11 black paint limited edition camera with “Dubai” or “UAE” engraved on the top side (maybe M11-P this time, but I don’t think so). The official announcement should happen very soon.

The new camera will be a limited edition M11, black paint, with contrast silver ISO and shutter speed dials and words “Dubai UAE” on top instead of “Wetzlar Germany”.
