The Leica M series features some of the most esteemed cameras of all time, having been used to take some of photography’s most recognized images, which has won it a cult-like following. And with such dedicated and impassioned fans, the pace of change has been deliberately slow and measured, with the swap from film to digital being the most significant change to the series in half a century of incremental refinement.
