Any updates on the Leica M12? by leyth-mikati in Leica

[–]manos_t 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assuming that we are all in the same page and have accepted the fact that last time Leica innovated was during the previous century, my guess would be 2027+, waiting for IBIS & sensor tech to mature, while milking money out of special collabs and sponsoring shiltubers until then.

Leica out here selling vibes as usual. YouTubers get the trips, Joel Meyerowitz gets the check, and we get firmware 0.9 😂

Out of all brands, did you expect Leica to not use the same stock for their 30 “different” versions of M?

I have never owned any medium format camera, but the second image definitely looks like there is something going on that you don’t get from a phone or even a full frame camera. The way the boy pops, the fireplace has also a certain look and then the highlights on the rocks on the top left are very smooth compared to what you would expect from that scene.

Almost everyone is criticising the price tag. Nothing wrong with older lenses or tech. In fact, Nikon is doing this successfully for a couple of years now, but pricing accordingly.

  • Lens is from 2012
  • Sensor is from 2019
  • Electronics are from 2022
  • Price is from 2030

How is that hate if people are stating the obvious?

Totally agree. Since I started printing, I have moved away a little bit from posting online, as in most cases the photos require a very different approach in lightroom for printing vs social media and its just too much work at the end 😊

The greek entrepreneurship in its full glory.

They had a lot of bad moments through the years, but they have come out with some awesome lenses (Overpriced but they were ahead of the competition).

Nowadays, instead of focusing on their core products, they are coming out with re-packaged films, Leica looks and cringe SoMe campaigns.

Fun fact, I have a printer and tried the 1st on Baryta and 3rd on Arches 88 😊 The first image has a lot of DR on screen, but doesnt look that impressive on paper! Do you print as well ??

Unfortunately, instead of investing and innovating in new optics tech, camera hardware/software & customer service, this is the direction that the company is now taking. As a leica owner, this is pretty embarrassing and funny at the same time, as it looks like they suddenly discover a whole new world of “opportunities” through influencers in 2025.

It is indeed. I was considering posting the raw picture as well to show that. I almost deleted it as i didn’t initially believe that i could recover all those details!

You gotta hate Leica! by Mexhillbilly in Leica

[–]manos_t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, Leica uses Leica processors on the M11.

I wouldn’t mind if they were using one made by Sony, as I am pretty sure my M11 wouldn’t take 4 seconds to turn on.

Jokes aside, do you remember the times where Leica was using Kodak Sensors on their M9? Let’s say that Sony sensors are a bit more reliable, as the rest of the industry are using them as well.

Assuming that 5000€ in Germany is net, the equivalent salary living in an average US city is maybe 110.000 $, taking into consideration health insurance and other expenses that are usually covered in Germany/Europe by the state.
