Re: Leica M11-V to be announced (With EVF)

One thing is most likely answered with the M11-V - the "EVF-M" comes with M-mount and not L-mount which is - at least for me - a relief. As I said in other threads about EVF-M before, Leica wants to avoid in-house EVF-based competition with AF/video in SL camera models where L-mount is needed.

Wonder what the V stands for in the name. Hopefully not for "V = Versuch" which in German means attempt....


Like in those rockets V-1, a flying bomb...that never really took off, but gave a true engineering base and good start to further developments

ps.no offense to you, all rf users/fanatics...but for me...if I want to play hide and seek with my eyes, I pull out my 1963 Kiev (ruski Contax knock off) and play with it. Q series/SL series this is the proper direction...yes, I know, Leica wants to sell those mf M lenses which have superb % markup...but they work just fine on SL bodies
