nice. they should make 35 and 50 versions asap.
28mm is too wide for me. Would prefer 35 or 50.
I’m not so impressed. This camera could have a credible future with an IL M mount, not with this fixed 28mm ? lens and… at a decent, competitive pricing. It’s none of that. It’s yet another Leica product beyond the very credible M range, which promises to be cutting edge but that doesn’t make sense for 99.99% of the (true) photographers.
This is a street photography machine.
Leica is the less conservative camera maker on the market (with Sony). Super paradox. Chapeau.
28mm is perfect for the first version. 35mm is overrated imho. Chapeau again.
A portrait/street fashion version (85mm) is a dream. No one produces a fixed (and therefore optimised) 85mm 1.4/1.8 fixed lens camera. In such a body would be a new and instant classic.
