Leica M11-P Rangefinder Black Finish Summary

Leica is once again pioneering with the elegant Leica M11-P Digital Rangefinder Camera Black Finish, which is the world’s first camera to feature technology compliant with both the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) and the C2PA standard. This innovation lets you authenticate the legitimacy of your images, restoring trust in digital photography, and is quite fitting for the “P” or Pressversion of the M11 digital rangefinder camera.

Additionally, it introduces a range of new and enhanced features in comparison to the M11. Firstly, it omits the Leica Red Dot logo, resulting in a stealthy appearance that manages to be simultaneously understated and discreet.

The LCD touchscreen is made from scratch-resistant sapphire glass and benefits from 100% sRGB colour space coverage, for completely accurate evaluation of image sharpness and exposure.

Internal storage has been increased to 256GB, and is complemented by a single high-speed UHS-II SD memory card slot. The Maestro III image processor from Leica features a robust buffer, seamlessly accommodating high-resolution images for a superior shooting experience, even when shooting at the maximum 60 megapixel resolution.

Triple resolution technology offers storage saving and shooting versatility, and the M11-P can be remotely controlled by the immersive FOTOS app, while also being fully compatible with Apple devices.

First camera ever with content authentication

Leica continues its tradition of innovation with the M11-P, introducing groundbreaking content authentication technology. In an era where AI and image manipulation are prevalent, this feature preserves the authenticity of every photo, setting a new standard for credibility and integrity in the dynamic realm of photography.

The M11-P leads the way by implementing encrypted metadata in alignment with the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI). This innovation offers an extra layer of transparency regarding the origin and alterations made to an image file, enhancing awareness of the file’s history and integrity.

Utilising Leica Content Credentials, every image you capture is equipped with a digital signature supported by a CAI-compliant certificate. You can easily confirm the authenticity of your images by visiting contentcredentials.org/verify, or through the Leica FOTOS app.

*Please install the latest firmware to activate Leica Content Credentials.

Stylish, elegant and understated

The Leica M11-P enhances M series characteristics through distinct design elements. It achieves this by omitting the iconic red Leica dot, the signature Leica script on the top plate, and featuring a scratch-resistant sapphire glass display. These are complemented by a matte black finish, ensuring the camera exudes exceptional elegance and a discreet aesthetic. This camera is also available with signature metallic finish, in the M11-P Camera Silver Finish.

High-performance BSI CMOS full-frame sensor

The M11-P shares the same advanced BSI CMOS full-frame sensor as the Leica M11, incorporating Triple Resolution Technology to achieve resolutions of up to 60 megapixels. This technology ensures stunning images characterised by true-to-life colours, expansive dynamic range, and intricate details.

LCD with full sRGB coverage

The camera’s high-resolution touch display, offering full sRGB colour space coverage, offers further precise assessment of image sharpness and exposure.

Large built-in memory capacity

The Leica M11-P ensures ample storage is always available. In addition to its UHS-II SD card slot, it features a 256GB internal memory, offering redundancy in media storage. The powerful buffer of the Maestro III image processor effortlessly handles the highest resolutions, guaranteeing a smooth shooting experience.

Streamlined mobile workflow

Enjoy seamless connectivity with the Leica M11-P and effortlessly transfer images to the Leica FOTOS app through Bluetooth or the USB-C port. Once paired, you can control the Leica M11-P via the app and directly edit images in Capture One Pro, Adobe Lightroom, or the Darkroom app. This integration enhances your on-the-go workflow. The Leica M11-P is also an Apple-certified "Made for iPhone® and iPad®" accessory, allowing you to connect it directly to your Apple device.

Tethering in USB mode

The newly added Tethering in USB modemenu option enables tethered photography using a USB cable, in conjunction with the Capture One Pro™ and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom™ photography applications (Plugins required and available on the Leica corporate website).
