Leica has revealed its highest-resolution M-series camera to date (that shoots colour images), introducing the M10-R, price tag £7,100 / $8295.
The Leica M10-R has a full-frame sensor with 40.89 million pixels and has the same design as the Leica M10 and M10 variants like the M10 Monochrom and M10-P.
The new sensor marks a big jump from the 24-megapixel sensor found in the Leica M10.
The new Leica rangefinder camera also inherits the dampened shutter of the M10-P and M10 Monochrom, which makes it very quiet in use.
As usual with M-series cameras, exposure control is via traditional controls including shutter speed and sensitivity (IS) dials and an aperture ring on the lens. Focusing is entirely manual using the rangefinder system.
