Leica M11 Black Paint

Leica M11 Black Paint

The Leica M11 with Black Paint features a unique design where frequent use creates a patina on the body, revealing the brass beneath the paint—a cherished symbol of past adventures for many creatives. Inspired by the Leica M11-P, this variant omits the iconic red dot, replacing it with a Leica engraving on the top plate. Notably, it is the only black Leica M11 model with a brass top plate, as other black variants use aluminum.

A Legend in photography, the Leica M, is reimagined with the all-new BSI sensor, metering system, connectivity, and more to meet the demands of the modern photographer. Meet the most advanced M camera ever.
