Every moment is unique as is every Leica M11 of this design variant with its glossy black paint finish. Over the years, it gathers traces that tell a story. The story of your Leica. A camera you will fall in love with. 

Every camera tells its own story

The Leica M11 design variant is made of brass and finished with glossy black paint. Over the years, frequent use wears down the paint, gradually revealing the brass underneath. As a result, a patina is created, which is as unique as the camera’s past. The Leica M11 glossy black not only captures moments in time through superb shots, but also tells its own story.

A great love of detail

In addition to the paint finish, well-thought-out design details emphasise this design variant’s simple aesthetics. The glossy black paint finish on the control dials and the on/off switch as well as the deliberate omission of the red Leica dot underline the cultivated subtlety for which M-Cameras are cherished the world over. The camera is further enhanced by the classic Leica lettering engraved on the top cover and the shutter release with its lustrous silver-chrome finish, which was first fitted to the Leica M3 and is reminiscent of historical M-Cameras. In addition to all the camera’s stylish accents, the elaborate cross knurling on the ISO and shutter-speed dial makes this Leica a camera that you won’t want to put down anytime soon.
