Leica M11-P Silver Camera

A source you can trust – Inviting Clarity & Context

The M11-P pioneers the use of encrypted metadata in compliance with the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI). This feature provides an additional layer of transparency to the conception and modifications of an image file, bringing awareness to the file’s provenance.

Details that make the difference

The M11-P accentuates the M series’ signature subtlety with unique features. The intentional absence of the iconic red Leica dot, the signature Leica script on the top plate and the scratch-resistant sapphire glass display, coupled with a matte black finish, grant the camera an unparalleled elegance and discreet appearance.

Combining the strengths of the M11 family

The M11-P, akin to the Leica M11, houses the high-performance BSI CMOS full-frame sensor equipped with Triple Resolution Technology, delivering resolutions as high as 60 megapixels.

This ensures radiant images, replete with natural colours, vast dynamic range, and exquisite detail. Its high-resolution touch display, covering 100% of the sRGB colour space, enables accurate evaluation of image sharpness and exposure.

Storage won’t be an issue with the M11-P. Beyond its UHS-II SD card slot, it boasts an internal memory of 256GB, which allows for redundant media storage in two locations. The Maestro III image processor’s robust buffer accommodates even the highest resolutions for a seamless shooting experience.

Optimal mobile workflow

Connect effortlessly with the Leica M11-P anywhere you go. Transfer images swiftly to the Leica FOTOS app via Bluetooth or the USB-C port. Once paired, the Leica M11-P can be controlled using the app, and images can be edited directly in Capture One Pro, Adobe Lightroom or the Darkroom app. Seamless integration that enhances your on-the-go workflow. As an Apple-certified “Made for iPhone® and iPad®” accessory, you can connect the Leica M11-P directly to your Apple device using the included Leica FOTOS cable.
