LEICA M10 CAMERA VS. LEICA M240 - IMAGE QUALITY - A COMPARATIVE REVIEW

[@pocketsquareformat]

This is a refreshing take on image quality. I have a M240 where I’ve experienced some frustrating challenges with ISO settings above 1600. With night photography in particular, I see ‘worms’ in my RAW files that can’t be corrected in post processing. Naturally I began to consider ‘upgrading’ to an M10. However, your video highlighted a few key points related to lenses. I am using a version 3 50mm Summicron which might be a factor in not being able to successfully photograph at night. Instead of jumping straight towards a camera upgrade, it might be wise for me to experiment with a few modern 50mm lenses first. If my image quality issue is resolved, upgrading my lens would be a more sensible (and less expensive) decision. Thank you for your excellent tips!

[@Deetroiter]

Honestly between the two, I would think they are the same camera. Difference is the major price! Most people look AT the picture, not pixel peeping the noise of a picture. Thanks for this comparison, that’s very impressive for the 240. I remember shooting 6400 speed film on a film camera and the amount of grain was massive. The 6400 on the M camera already looks leagues better

[@SourPlanet]

Totally agreed. I'm just now seeing this video way after the fact... and I find performance to be essentially identical. As a day shooter only, this video is just permission to save $4000.

[@jimslater9259]

Again, I see no advantage to trading a 240 for the M10. The 240 produces fantastic images. I have printed jpeg images at 13x19 size with no image editing and the quality is superb. If I had an M8 or M9 I might be tempted to get the M10. Kep up the good reviews. I am looking forward for the next one.

[@35mmview18]

Still love my black MP-240. I've had it for years. I just stuck on an F2 35mm Summicron and have never looked back.

[@splootan]

[@35mmview18]

@@splootan Of course.

[@CreativeLeadershipwithDaniel]

[@richardyeung6562]

Got my M240 for about 6 months now. Still under learning how to get an accurate focusing, as I was only using af focusing system during last 10 years. As I can see that the image is great if I had the accurate focus with my M240. This is a camera which let you enjoy shooting.

[@kuau714]

Because of your video I decided to hold off on the M10, I will stick with my SL and Q like you said the M10 will not make me a better photographer

[@bvanquish777]

the Q is amazing. if you really want the m just grab a second hand 240 for half the price

[@SpacemonkeySTI]

I would make the argument that any M rangefinder would make you a better photographer if you're moving from an SL or Q. rangefinder experience is completely different and will change the way you approach any subject you want to photograph.

[@MB-or8js]

Just bought a mint barely used M-E 240 with no regrets! My first digital Leica M! Love it (but I still will continue shooting film with my film Ms in parallel).

[@stillben]

How did you do a side by side. Same lens and quickly switch it. Cameras on double mount on same tripod?

[@ufukkiblat]

I was on the edge of getting an M10, but after watching this I'm convinced to just buy M-P240 and some lenses instead. Thanks!

[@shootswithcoops]

I think you’ve convinced me to buy a second hand M240 instead of the 10

[@fbraakman]

Like you stated, whether you like a particular camera or lens is very subjective. I just received my new M10, having upgraded from the M9. I feel that the images from the M10 are definitely sharper over those from the M9. Maybe it's due to the higher pixel count from the M10? Colour is definitely different, not sure how to define it. I love the newer options that the M10 has over the M9, like peak focussing, which is a definite benefit over the M9. Also the "extra stops" available in low light. EVF and LV both are a benefit over the M9. All of these features make it a winner for me. The LCD screen is larger, the optical viewfinder and the frame lines are brighter, M10 has gps/wifi with the EVF, the buffer speed is faster for the M10. Now if I had owned the M240, it may not make sense to upgrade. I actually looked at the M240 before I bought the M10, and I did not like the feel of holding the camera in my hands, even as much as the M9. It's too bulky for me. I also am not interested in the video feature of the M240. I could have bought the M262, or the M-D, but the M10 has features that I liked that the previous series of models did not have. Still, the M9 is still a great camera too, and I will keep it as a back up.

[@NegativeCompensation]

Thanks for the great analysis. After looking at a ton of photographs, I too came to the conclusion that the difference was in the lenses and not in the different bodies. I have owned the M240 for a while now and will be keeping it (as well as my money) for a while. If I buy anything, it would be better lenses, as that's what makes the difference most of the time.

[@tamererdem743]

Dear Yilmaz, Though you stated that, you were going to show the almost null differences between the M240 and M10 in terms of image quality in further test, you did not release the related test and videos since than...

[@ThorDyrden]

As I understand the "two stop advantage" statement of some reviewers - they probably refer to noise-level. So the test should be: - keep the aperture the same (so also dof is constant) - have the 240 at ISO 100 and expose correct (so e.g. with 1/100s) - have the M10 set to ISO 400 and expose correct (so in our example then with 1/400s - which is 2 stops less light) The resulting images from a noise-level/IQ should be comparable... probably the test should also be done for ISO 400 vs. 1600 and 800 vs. 3200 to see a difference - I assume ISO 400 is no challange for any of the modern sensors.

[@ThorDyrden]

OK - should have watched to 10:09, before commenting. Agree, that the noise-advantage at least is a combination of sensor and image-processing (if not processing only)... still at high ISOs a better sensor should also deliver more conrast and dynamic-range, which is hard to regain in processing... though also hard to compare.

[@jllanesphoto]

Execellent Video. I have 2- M240s. They are great. They do what I need. Will keep them for a while. Photographers make images, not cameras. Thanks you for the great video.

[@cfagil]

A very fair and logical review. Thank You. I don't use Leica gear as tools. They are toys to enjoy. Definitely don't need them. My tools are the good old Nikon gear - they provide me with an income stream to buy the toys I desired. Top of my "toy" wish list is the Hasselblad 907x so I can use it with my 503x and old CF lenses. Leica is a master in marketing "Special Edition" cameras; people are happy to pay more to buy them. The key is exclusivity and nothing to do with taking better photos. I usually buy my Leica gear from many of my "Leica Collector" friends who buy Leica to keep and not to take photos. Hence, I ended up with "Special Edition" Leica bodies not by choice but they are the only stocks my friends had. For those who want to take photos with Leica gear, we should encourage the Leica collectors to buy the latest with their deep pockets. Don't forget they are the providers of the secondary market.

[@TomBiskup]

Just bought the 240 (used). Thanks for the video, it made me sure it was a right decision to save a few grand :)

[@LeicaReview]

Very Smart Decision... Congratulations.

[@RaymondLo84]

Got my M-P (Typ 240) for $2200 + EVF + Italian Leather Case + Strap + Original Box, and the camera is pretty minty with the bottom plastic still on!

[@m1k3e]

I think you raise a great point. Seems like gear acquisition syndrome (GAS) is quite common these days. Just because a new camera comes out doesn't mean that your "old" camera will stop taking pictures! I think that's a point that goes beyond just cameras and can apply to most modern technology that we use every day (do we really need a new iPhone every year?) Thanks as always for a great video.

[@LeicaReview]

Thank you for recognising and pointing out "GAS" Gear Acquisition Syndrome that has been a driving factor in today's consumption society. Pros used to use a lens or a camera for years even decades. Now, lens companies are driven to deliver more products and entice consumers to purchase them.

[@maze400]

Thank you. I was going to buy another camera I did not need. I would love a a Leica M240 or M246. I have the M4 and M6 with a 35mm and 50mm Sumi, as well as the 135 elmarit. I could just use them on my Fuji or run some film through my old faithfull cameras...

[@Hoppetakeyama]

Great vdo as always. I was thinking of buying M10 but after watching this vdo I will keep shooting with the SL.

[@gerryphillipson]

Hello, and many thanks for this and several other videos which have been very clear and informative. I have just one question - as you're subject is still photography why are all your sample photographs zoomed? I keep wanting the zoom to stop so I can actually see the photo you took. Stay well.

[@MarcS4R]

imho the camera that makes a difference in rendering and color in a unique way, withthe right light is the M9. and that is still my camera of choice.

[@chepo1956]

Hello. I think this is my first comment on your channel. First just to make it clear, I'm not a professional photographer. I just enjoy photography and I know my way a bit with cameras. I still have an Olympus OM4-T camera with some lenses I purchased in 1986. I've owned a couple of film cameras and my first digital camera was the Canon EOS 7d 1st generation. I currently own a Sony A77m2 with a couple of lenses and I enjoy it. I've read lots of reviews on the Leica cameras on KZbin and as always: many love them; others don't. Personally, I've never held a Leica camera in my hands. But what I've heard from many is that they a well built and have lasting value. Many professionals swear by them, other folks think they are pretentious; that you'd have to be crazy to buy a camera that can easily set you back around 12 thousand dollars. In my view a camera is just a tool and the computer inside it is a moron. It's the photographer's brain that will produce the magic by telling the camera what to do. True: camera technology these days is wonderful, and the things you can do with todays technology is outstanding. Instant gratification as one might say as opposed to the days of film which obligated you to wait for the results. But no matter how great sensors have become, good photographic tecnique should always prevail. Even more now that these sensors can offer you so much flexibility. Who ever thought of ISO's going into the millions! Personally I feel you should purchase what makes you feel good and if it falls in your budget. But then again, this is my humble opinion. I could be wrong.

[@LeicaReview]

Thank You Jose.. You have highlighted something very important. Everyone should purchase a camera that falls within their budget and that t's the photographer's brain that will produce the magic by telling the camera what to do. Much appreciate your comments.

[@gregoryvarano8002]

Fantastic review and the best advice. Ozyilmaz, there is no difference as far as the human eye can see. Yes photographs have character, yet people today spend hours and hours editing. M (type 240) will produce images the same as the M10. It is produces better monochromatic images as the colour contrast filters are in the settings I also have an M10P the super quiet shutter and the touch screen and wifi Bluetooth conductivity. This features help with day to day assignments. I used both the M(240) and M10P when the job calls for it. Great video!

[@allenLin0420]

I truly appreciate your comments in this video. Great viewpoint.

[@artisfine]

Did the same:bought a used M240 with a 35mm summicron. Even with my 50mm 1.5 Summarit feo. 1953 I am really happy on this camera. Thanks for your always great expertise!

[@tokobjork]

You should also show 100% crops where images from both cameras are shown at the same time. This way it is more easy to spot any difference in detail characteristics.

[@psychoanima]

Fantastic review, streight point of view, totally agree about consumption criticism. However, do you think that is worth buying M240 in 2019? I am asking that because this camera is many years old now which means that is impossible to find it used with low shutter count. Is it worth spending around 2.500 dollars for camera that can suddenly stop working and we all know that repairing Leica can cost hell of a lot.

[@ebreckpo6563]

Sensor technology hasn't changed much in the last years. I would say an evolution not revolution. The processing algorithms in the camera is getting better and the processing software is getting more powerful. I purchased last year a used Leica M-P (typ240) and I am very happy with it. Combined with good optics this camera is capable of taking excellent photographs even in challenging lighting conditions. Recently I got the opportunity to purchase an M9 body with a recent sensor replacement (serviced jan 2017 by Leitz). Although a different sensor technology I was very surprised with the quality of the files in good lighting conditions. At base ISO I cannot see much difference between M9 and M240 files. In adverse lighting conditions the M240 has an advantage. The M10 (although I haven't used it yet) will probably shoot decent pictures at iso6400 as the m240 shoots decent pictures at iso 3200. The M9 can go up to only iso 1250-1600. We gain 2 stops of sensitivity in 8 years... Unless a new sensor technology comes up we are at the limit of the current (CMOS) technology. Perhaps in a near future we will be able to shoot a sporting event lit by moonlight.... Meanwhile instead of moving to the M10 now I am more inclined to purchase some nice glass and going out taking photographs with the equipment I have. Thank you for this comparative review and looking forward to your next review.

[@NegativeCompensation]

I played with the M10 at the local Leica store and asked everyone there what was new about the new sensor. Everyone said that it was a bit better at low light, but no one could tell me anything else besides that. Nothing. Leica won't say either, or who makes it, or whatever. As a buyer, is that not enough to give someone some pause with their money?

[@ebreckpo6563]

Leica M8 and M9 sensor are Kodak CCD sensors, Leica M(240) is a CMOS sensor from Cmosis a Belgan company from Antwerp. The M10 sensor is apparently a sensor from an Israelian company with some links to Panasonic... The processing is done by the Maestro (II) processor. Looked recently at a Thorsten Von Overgaard video about the M10. He was not euphoric about it. He liked the external iso dial. He will take the M10 to Cuba and Mexico and make it work. The best thing is to find an opportunity to test the camera and look for yourself.

[@chrishschan]

I bought a used M240 recently with all the accessories & original boxes, condition is like new, looks like the former owner seldom used it. I have a question on the LCD live view function, hope you can help me. There are white lines showing aspect ratio when pressing the up and down buttons. What are the use of this aspect ratio lines and how to activate them with the camera.

[@micheledeidda2565]

Thanks for the video man, i'm about to get an m240 and wondering whether is too old or surpassed by the m10, but then again i guess that that's down to the 'more money bettet photographer ' devil's equation.

[@shy-guy5544]

Nice review. If I am mistaken, the 240 has better battery life than the M10, in addition to video capability.

[@crsantin]

I don’t know what post processing you did here but the colour temp of these images is very cold. They both looked very purple in tone. Is this what the auto wb looks like on each camera?

[@Stealther]

I appreciate the review but it should be pointed out that good light is an equalizer. Comparing these cameras in more challenging situations is where differences are shown.

[@anthonytella4176]

Maybe this is just me being a little bias since ill be purchasing an M240 within the next couple of weeks but to me the greater half of images shown look better coming from the M240 over the m10. With that said if money wasn't the deciding factor i would buy the M10 over the m240 as I'm sure most if not all would. The re-design of the digital Leica is the definition of beautiful. The M10 is pure beauty, the new iso dial tho such a minor cosmetic change has made waves, and a big splash! The m240 is a fantastic camera and since so its very hard to make major improvements on an already amazing platform. Higher Iso capabilities and iso dial. Image quality is fantastic, was fantastic and will always be fantastic for years to come.

[@Chasjazzez]

Great video, especially the last part in my honest opinion... I would like to add... There is too much competition, and everything has to be a competition nowadays... Everywhere... People are obsessed with competition so people keep buying the latest gear, so they can keep up with "their" competition.

[@ronaldjohnston7989]

WOW...the voice of reason. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with all of us (I just purchased an M-240 today)...carry on. RJ

[@samueljames9015]

I like your philosophy about over consumption and that most modern day cameras lack character. I agree and have a Leica M240 for that special quality in a digital camera. I found your comparison between the 240 and the M10 too general though. The main difference in the 2 stop advantage will be in low light, but you shot in full sunlight so we can't see any noise. Its a bit silly then saying they are 'identical'! I can even see during daylight that the M240 has warmer reds and the M10 is a tad cooler in its highlights. A bit more accuracy in your review would help us! Thanks,

[@ronitsingh85]

Leica have stressed that noise performance is better, we should all know that this is in low light conditions where the sensor is more sensitive and will bring out details and highlights for things that are underexposed say for example in high contrast situations. Also in low light conditions you should be able to bump up the ISO up more, more than the 240 and still get cleaner images without much grain. I am certain after the many yrs sensors have improved, extraction of information from the sensor, algorithm and that that good stuff, We are always advancing in technology, its not surprising that the M10 should not have these, look at Sony, they are able to offer such leaps in sensor tech at almost the same cost, that it becomes irrelevant to think - 'its too good to be true', If it were me, I would go for the M10, simply because its more of a truer M camera, I love the slim shape and the ISO dial. I am glad that space is used. Pricewise and longer battery life makes the 240 more attractive. But don't think the M10 has the same performance as the 240, you will get same results with an iPhone even in good daylight condition.

[@alainbadan9345]

100% agreement with your analysis, especially after 3 years, we now find M10 opportunities after the release of the M10-R

[@ronitsingh85]

Alain Badan I own the M10-P now and don’t plan to get the M10-R, since I already have the M10, 24 MP is still good and has good enough detail but for sure 24 MP does not do justice to the amazing lens resolution of the M line of lenses. I think 36+ MP will bring out majority of the details M lenses are able to resolve when you zoom into the images. For someone shooting up close and at fully open, you will not have much detail anyway! Most of it will be blurred out background, for someone shooting landscape and street, you may need more MP :-)

[@alainbadan9345]

@@ronitsingh85 I go in your direction, I have the Sony 7R4 with the 135 1.8 GM and the 24 1.4 GM, it's incredible what a high definition sensor can give as a result with a good lens. For the moment I'm having fun with a Leica Q (found cheap) I find the color accuracy incredible, that's why I watch this kind of video, I'm intrigued.

[@ronitsingh85]

Alain Badan you have some great cameras on hand! Congratulations. Sony a7r mk4 is a great body. With different adapters please try to use vintages lenses on the Sony! You will love the unique image quality produced by the old lenses. Try your hands on canon, Nikon RF lenses and old Leica lenses. With digital camera we now know how sharp these vintage lenses really are. In the time of film you really don’t see much detail that these lenses were capable of producing. Leica does an amazing job at producing those images, I will say that all their line up of point and shoot even produces some of the best images I have ever seen. My first Leica was the Leica T. I was blown by it’s image quality and low light performance. It’s 16mp for a reason, this ensues that at that time it had the low light performance of a full frame sensor. Very pleasing grainy images in low light. Leica Q is a great camera, I love its looks and if you are fine using the 28 lens than you have a bargin right there! Even at full retail price it’s considered a steal if you compare it to buying just a Leica m 28 mm lens. One thing with M bodies is that it uses less power if you are not using live view or EVF. With other mirrorless the sensor is always sampling and relying live view consuming quite a bit of power. I also have the Leica M edition 60, body has no screen at the back, I love using it! Even better battery life

[@jllanesphoto]

Thank you for your video. Thanks for putting common scence in the equation. Sometimes we buy out of impulse, even Leicas.

[@BartRos1980]

I like this channel man. And how you talk openly about the gear. I am currently trying to get into Leica. But as an second camera system as I am a Sony A7R3 shooter (R4 to me is a step in the wrong direction for Sony), in an attempt to focus more on the image instead of the gear wanking. I am not adverse to manual focus, as I also shoot old SLRs. Would the Q be an option? Or a M9?

[@bvanquish777]

Very good points, but where is the video that shows your Lightroom adjustments to the M240 images? Couldn’t find it! Again thanks and keep safe. André

[@chirag4]

Hi Oz, if there is no difference in Colors & IQ as seen from some of the images at Base-ISO, between M-Typ240 & M10, except Software (High-ISO) improvement, then, it means we are buying M10 for its lighter weight, form-factor (slimmer or thinner body), & ISO Dial, which could be acceptable for some people, and unacceptable for others (won't even count the lack of video as i am not a video guy). In case of two images of the Bridge, i am seeing no difference, but in images of the Harbor, there seems to be a difference of either color or brightness or contrast, but you said there's no difference (of tonality/gradations). Though I am not sure as i am not good at Chromatology (color science) and so would like to know from you Oz. Also if you could say whether M10 is a good buy for a first time Leica prospective buyer ? Plus, what lens to choose is a difficult proposition. Noctilux & 35 FLE blocks the VF. Hence small lenses like 35 Cron, and 50 Zeiss C Sonnar f/1.5 and 28 Elmarit would be better suited. Another issue is that even if we want to buy M10, there would be a waiting period of at least 6 months due to high demand. I am a Canon 6D + 24-70 user. Thanks, Regards.

[@LeicaReview]

Hello Chirag, thank you for your comments. Firstly, images may vary because light changes from moment to moment. But I wanted to shoot it in practical circumstances rather than controlled lighting situations in a studio. The point of the video is to show that there are no significant differences in image quality in decent lighting conditions. To answer your question, if you have no concerns about budget Leica M10 is a camera to buy whether you are a first time prospective buyer or not. I prefer to use a CCD sensor although the ISO performance is not as great as CMOS sensors because they render a unique quality in images that can't be duplicated with newer sensors. If CMOS sensors are the choice then I would go with Leica M240. I would buy Sony A9 (you can watch my review on Camera Review) because it is the next step in ISO performance technology, plus you can use Leica lenses on them.

[@chirag4]

Thanks a great deal for the ultra-helpful answer that clarifies a lot of things for me now moving forwards. Yes i will watch closely the Sony A9 that was just announced. My all time dream camera would be Leica M9-P White Limited Edition (CCD, 50 pieces), 2nd would be M8.2 (white limited edition), and lastly, Panda Edition M-P (white limited of 60 pieces), but that are sold out, and in any case way too expensive for my pockets. I would see if budget permits me to buy M240 or M10 (for film-like smaller body) in the times to come. Leica Glass marries well with Leica body, but would try it on Sony A9 and compare to arrive at a final decision. Best Regards.

[@LowLightVideos]

12:20,13:45 - Hard to beat IBIS (EG: Olympus) for the value it provides, and a low noise Sensor for the Image quality. Anything that can be fixed in Post will be, by people not making money from their time. When Time=Money neither is wasted by paying the money, even for a small increment. Professionals who do Post cost both while proper Equipment and Technique in the first place saves all the way down the line. Professionals can afford a matching Set of Lenses that cost as much as a House. Amateurs are usually stuck with a hodgepodge of differing Glass that makes Videos that look like a Frat House Production (and not at a Film School). I'm not too much a Fan of the Secret Sauce some Cameras of years past had as they'd crush the Blacks but more recently it's come a long way. It's because of improvements to the Sensor, propped up by IBIS that we've gained several Stops (not all Aperture, split with Shutter Speed) with some IBIS/Lens IS Combos generating more than 5 Stops (of Shutter vs. Blur). Sadly, Glass has always been expensive (save for the mass produced popular sizes) and is cheaper to correct in Post as it holds it's character (in Primes). Straight lines are nice but the character of a Lens is difficult if not impossible to fix (match) in Post; it is for that reason the cost should be born. Really enjoy your Videos, Rob

Is there anything that I should look that might be a problem?? Thanks Best regards

[@aadvanderwell8602]

Vasilis Velopoulos That lens is one of the best allrounder lenses in the world. I used it also on an M6. I traded this body in for an M10P And it feels good, much like working with the M6, ergonomically but now with all the digital advances. Important detail: the M6 is AT ALL TIMES READY TO SHOOT😉💎 I sometimes miss that in the M10P cause after some time it falls 'asleep' and does'nt react pressing the release button. VERY ANNOYING!!

Thank you! Sir but M240 s ISO is can only using to 3200

[@LeicaReview]

In all manners, whether M10 or M240, the ISO should not exceed 3200 if you wish for a noise free image. However, if there is enough demand I can do a video on how I work image files on Lightroom.

[@jerryjoe2411]

thank you so much! Get the point now and really appericiate for your reply, still looking forward for your video about it.

[@hansalbers9894]

Thanks for wisdom.

[@robertopagliari7585]

What do you think of the MD 262?

[@LeicaReview]

There is not much to say about it. It is a M240 repacked for those who detest LCD screens and think that they could capture the film spirit but use digital. My advice buy a M10 instead, here is the link www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1312198-REG/leica_20000_m10_digital_rangefinder_camera.html/BI/20599/KBID/15706

[@robertopagliari7585]

My main concern with the M10 is about battery life

[@jpappert19]

Merci, très intéressant! Je vous souhaite beaucoup de succès, JPA

[@LeicaReview]

That is right !!

[@cfagil]

Some good points in your video. Thank you.

[@francoisdunord7169]

very good comparison

[@Boxer1250RT]

as usual - another amazing review - thanks!

[@Fluterra]

I get your main point- it's not about the camera, don't be tempted to upgrade for a small improvement...invest in lens over bodies... But you seek to demonstrate it in a disingenuous way. Trying to deceive the viewer is not correct. And I love how you imply that Leica is Lying about the all new sensor. That all they did was use the M240 sensor and update the software to reduce low light noise. HA! You can't seriously believe that yourself, I hope! Leica is lying. I love it.

[@Fluterra]

The one - the ONLY - good thing about this video is that some people may leave the wait list... moving me further up the list. Honestly, I have not read anything more stupid pertaining to a camera review. Oz (is that his name) knows better. I don't know why he thinks us viewers must be stupid.

[@CzornyLisek]

Where on earth He said it do not have newer sensor o.O He actually said that M10 how lower noise than M240 and emphasized that it's daylight test. About software(including firmware) bulk of noise is decreased that way. Example of such feature in RED cameras(they now have best sensors and firmware on market) www.red.com/learn/red-101/black-shading-calibration And there example what can be done in software(and how algorithms differ) fstoppers.com/originals/ultimate-comparison-nine-noise-reduction-methods-night-photography-122259

how do you rate the 18-56 vario elmar

[@LeicaReview]

Leica 18-56 is a very slow lens.. Very impractical for today's day and age. It can only be used during day light or when the lighting conditions are good. Plus, you will be sacrificing the bokeh which makes the photographs no different than Iphone shots. If you would want to invest in a T lens, Leica Summicron-T 23mm f/2 ASPH Lens is your best bet, followed by 35mm and 60mm.. Visit Ebay for some great deals..

@@LeicaReview Agreed 23 /35 and 60 are outstanding lenses .I use them on my CL and even on my sl2s .

Great job! Thanks !!

great video, thanks

Great review. Very eloquent.

[@henryzhang9915]

I need this video!

[@florianczech1]

Ich kann deinem Vergleich nicht folgen!! Wenn du sagst eine Kamera ist ein Werkzeug, kann ist die M10 das weit aus bessere Werkzeug im Vergleich zur M40 oder M246!!1 Als ehemaliger Besitzer Beider Modelle kann ich sagen, dass die M10 in der Bedienung, in der Haptik, in der Menüführung, im Live View Betrieb der 240er und der 246er weit überlegen sind! Viel größerer Sucher, größerer Austrtspupille, fast verzögerungsfreie Ausslösungen im Lifeviewbetrieb!! Übersichtlichere Menüführung! Besserer Autoiso! Bessere Objektiverkennung!! Und ganz eindeutig bessere Dynamik oberhalb von ISO 1600!!! Ich habe mich sowohl von der M240 als auch von der M 246 zu Gunsten der M10 getrennt! Ich fotografiere mit ihr nun schon fast 3 Monate und kann nur sagen, dass es noch nie zuvor eine bessere M gegeben hat als die M10!!! Liebe Grüße, Florian

[@LeicaReview]

Lieber Florian, ich verstehe deine Punkte. Ich schätze, dass Sie sie mit mir teilen. Ob Leica M10 oder Leica M240, jede Kamera bietet für den Anwender unterschiedliche Werte. Ich bin lieber in der Lage, auf einfache oder kontinuierliche Modus schnell mit einem einfachen Touch zugreifen. Leica M10 hat es im Menü begraben. Bitte verstehe, dass ich Leica M10 für Fotografie genauso mag wie ich M240 mag. Glückliches fotografieren Bitte teilen Sie uns Ihre Kommentare in unseren zukünftigen Videos mit.

very nice video buddy..!

[@jackthehatphoto]

If you are here to learn about photography then skip the part from 3:28 to 4:25. It's utter nonsense.

[@fatihkocabas5178]

🇬🇧Mr. Oz I guess that you are Turkish, so it would be more beneficial if you offer the Turkish language subtitle option in this and other similar videos, thank you for us. 🇹🇷Bay oz tahmin ediyorum ki türksünüz, o yüzden sizden ricam bu ve benzeri videolarda türkçe dil altyazı seçeneği sunarsanız daha faydalı olabilir bizler için, teşekkür ederim.

[@christopherhowell3209]

I guess it's all about being "different" to the other person!

Really good message that makes one think deeper about photography and the constant pursuit of "better" equipment. Really looking forward to new posts! Best regards, Carl, Sweden (Instagram: cjhway

Every time I see a Leica, I just say "Hey look .... a guy with a bunch of money."

[@LeicaReview]

Although Leica's are expensive. Anyone can get them at a very affordable price. For example, a Leica M9 full frame camera is a better value than a Fuji line up of cameras, that is if your aim is to do photography.
