Of the Leicas I've used ... M8, M9, M240, MM and M7, I'm liking the M10 the most. Well worth the wait, for me anyway.

Can someone recommend a proper (meaning strong, layered) screen protector for the 240? My last one came with one installed, but this one doesn't have any. All my other cameras have "GGS" stuck on them and I've found them to be excellent (taken some real hits on my work cameras)... but seems less easy to find the right sort for the 240 now ? edit: is the M10 screen size absolutely *identical* ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/GLASS-Expert-Shield-ultra-durable-protector/dp/B0746CDNGN/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504690446&sr=8-1&keywords=glass+screen+protector+Leica+M

The M 10 is larger than the M 262/M 240.
I use these.

Maybe, but I am pretty sure they lose lots of money because of this. From introduction to real product can be bought is about a year. That is very long time in digital age. If you can get it right after announced that is will be good. This is 2nd time I give up M purchase to Nikon. I don't know others. But impulse buy is consumer behavior that Leica should take advantage for. I am sure lots of D850 buyers will sell it in a year.
---------------------------------------------
Z I'm sure if money were the only factor they would have moved to a manufacturing model more like the big two or like fuji or sony and design products more like their products but thank god they haven't. As you know most Leica buyers don't think like the DSLR or the normal mirrorless crowd anyway. I'm glad they don't try to market and create cameras to those kind of buyers. That's what everyone else does. We already have all of those choices. I put my name on several lists. Murphy's Camera in Lexington Kentucky is where I got my original MM from and now the M 10. They were also the first to have the MM available when I bought that in 2012. If you are in the US and if you get on a few lists like I did it probably wont take a year. I think it took me 3 months or so.

Hi, Gary, Do you still have M240? Or just film body.
I still have the M240 but have only picked it up twice since I bought the M4. It is kind of collecting dust now which is sad. The form factor of these film M Leica's are just perfect for my use. I am also re-learning how to develop film at home which is a fun hobby. Keep in mind though that I still use my Sony for all landscape stuff....

The color of these M10 images being posted look quite good. Generally speaking, what is the main differences in color output of the M10 when compared to the M240?

Yellows/Greens have been fixed (calmed down) without affecting the Blues/Reds to much (or rather you don't need to riling the blues and reds in an attempt to tame the yellows/greens till you get blotchy skin or oddly tinted scenes). Doesn't seem like a lot but makes editing so much easier. Also makes overall skin tones look better without needing to sabotage the rest of the image.
Sensor is still VERY clean with nice tones. And if you did need to dive into the image, it's quite a forgiving sensor as long as you don't overexpose the initial RAW. Obviously other advantages like high ISO noise and the colours still hold up at higher ISOs. You can bring up the shadows without the M240 issues too.
I LOVE the M240 sensor, but now I couldn't go back to it with the M10 sensor in view.. Honestly the only reason I even went back to Leica was for the M10 sensor. I don't really know what beats it right now out of everything I've used 35mm wise.

Thanks Adam! I also found the reds to run hot on the M240. Has this changed any?

Color wise, looks like they corrected greenish shadow cast on M10. Color is quite remarkable at high ISO, I use ISO 3200 and 6400 without much concern, even at ISO 10,000 it is usable. But it isn't just the sensor output that was improved, EVF, LV ,AWB all improved, camera responds faster, making it nicer to use. Slight negative is the shorter battery life.
M240 (and M9) is still good, at lower ISO. I think it would be hard to tell difference from M10. I don't know how you all shoot Tri-X film at EI200 or EI 400 indoors or in low light - with tripod?

Don't you be cheeky Joe! High ASA film and fast glass usually works. If not, pushing the film is a good solution. When are you going to buy a film M body? You would love it!

I had film Ms but sold them sometime back. I like the romance of film, maybe a MP or MA would be nice if I get the bug again. Still have 3 Olys - OM2, XA, Stylus Epic and my Rolleiflex 2.8E and a freezer of Arista Premiums and unused chemicals

Yes less hot.. And also the other colours are where you want them so less likely to agitate the reds.
