I decided to give M11 another run. I didn't like the magenta shift of the first M11 I got, but now there is option to send it to Leica to re-calibrate sensor colors. I was able to get a late production Nov 2024 M11. For some reason, I feel the colors out of this M11 looks more natural. It's not exactly the same as my M10R straight out of the camera, but I actually like the colors. Maybe every M11 has slightly different sensor color calibration or Leica changed the color calibration slightly with later production units. I tested with 35 SRR and 50 Lux. Below are 2 sets of pictures shot with 50 Lux one with M11 and other with M10R. Pictures are direct raw imports with Adobe Standard profile and no editing.
I want to see if others can pick which body is which. Do you still see clear magenta shift?
