The Leica M series has always been about a pure, unfiltered connection to photography. It’s a camera designed to put the photographer in direct touch with their subject, relying on the simplicity of a rangefinder and the discipline that comes with manual focus and composition.
So the camera rumors surrounding a new Leica M camera with a built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF) feel like a significant departure from the ethos that has defined the M line for decades. While some may welcome this change, to me, it fundamentally alters what makes an M camera unique and special.
