Leica has just unveiled globally its fourth and latest dedicated black-and-white shooter – the M11 Monochrom rangefinder. Retail price in Singapore: S$13,470.
Thanks to Leica Singapore, I had the opportunity last week to try out the M11 Monochrom for myself prior to today’s global unveiling. I am partial to black-and-white photography and have always loved the toning of Leica cameras. The M11 Monochrom did not disappoint, churning out Magnum-like shots ready for Pullitzer prize-winning stories.
The 4th generation of monochrome sensor Leica cameras offers maximum artistic freedom and flexibility in composing images with nothing but light and shadow.
With its BSI CMOS sensor specially designed for black-and-white photography and its enormous sensitivity range of ISO 125 to 200,000, the Leica M11 Monochrom boasts images with the finest detail, extremely high contrast and exceptional, natural sharpness.
The new Leica M11 Monochrom (right) looks identical to its sibling, the Leica M11. The former however has an all black paint finish and does not show the bright red Leica logo on the front of the camera.
It also offers the option of switching between 60, 36 and 18 MP at any time through pixel binning.
The camera has a built-in 256GB internal memory and a USB-C port.
