Leica M11 Rangefinder Camera Glossy Black Summary
The Leica M11 Camera Glossy Black is a refined design variation of the original Leica M11 black, which combines state-of-the-art rangefinder technology with classic aesthetics and durable build quality. Its distinctive glossy black paint finish provides an understated appearance with a patina that evolves over time, telling a story unique to each owner.
With top and base plates made of brass and a glossy black paint finish, the M11’s paint develops a natural patina with everyday use, gradually revealing the brass beneath. This process adds character to the camera, making it a personal, record of its journey, which is unique to the owner. It’s not just a camera that captures memories, but a statement Leica piece, which becomes as individual as the photographer using it.
Attention to detail enhances the M11’s understated elegance, and the finish extends to the control dials and on/off switch, while the iconic red Leica dot is omitted for a more subtle aesthetic.
Classic Leica lettering is engraved on the top cover, and the shutter release button features a silver-chrome finish reminiscent of the legendary Leica M3. The intricate cross-knurling on the ISO and shutter-speed dials adds functionality and tactile appeal to the engaging shooting experience, which this rangefinder provides.
The Leica M11 Camera Glossy Black is more than a camera, it’s an heirloom-quality piece that is designed to create and embody memories, which looks as unique as the images it captures.

Leica M11 Camera Glossy Black in More Detail
Future-proof Image Quality
With an all-new sensor and groundbreaking technology, the Leica M11 delivers refined imaging capabilities and future-ready performance. Its native ISO range of 64 to 50,000 defies the camera’s compact size, offering exceptional control over noise and a wide dynamic range. This allows you to shoot confidently in diverse lighting conditions—from bright daylight with smooth, noise-free details at low ISOs to low-light environments at higher sensitivities.
Triple Resolution Technology sets a new benchmark for image quality, using the full surface area of the sensor to capture images in resolutions of 60, 36, or 18 megapixels. The 60MP option provides the highest resolution ever in an M system camera, opening up new creative possibilities for composition and detail.
Advanced Metering Features
The Leica M11 offers precise exposure metering through its image sensor, supporting all metering methods in both Live View and rangefinder modes. TTL (through-the-lens) metering with the working aperture is available, with options for Spot, Centre-weighted, and Multi-field metering. Aperture Priority and Manual modes provide creative flexibility for photographers.
Leica M Lens Ecosystem
The M system’s unmatched lens compatibility offers users endless creative options. Every rangefinder lens made since 1954 is fully compatible, from vintage classics to the latest M series lenses. This flexibility allows you to explore both new and pre-owned lenses, unlocking a world of creative freedom unique to the rangefinder system.
Additionally, Leica has released a Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.2 ASPH Lens Glossy Black to complement this camera’s unique aesthetic perfectly.
Comprehensive Range of Accessories
To complement the M11 Glossy Black camera, Leica has introduced a handful of Taupe coloured accessories, joining existing M11 accessories that enhance usability and personalisation. Options include an M System Camera Bag Taupe, Leica Leather Camera Carrying Strap Taupe and Leica M11 Leather Protector Taupe.
Other accessories include the Visoflex 2 Electronic Viewfinder, which offers three adjustable angles and a high-resolution OLED display, and the M11 Thumb Rest is a practical addition which adds comfort to the ergonomics. Flash users can take advantage of a Leica SF 40 or SF 60 flashgun, which support centre-weighted TTL at up to 1/180s.
Leica FOTOS App and Connectivity
Despite its classic design, the Leica M11 features cutting-edge connectivity, including 5 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v4.2, and Geotagging via the Leica FOTOS app. The app connects the camera seamlessly to your smartphone or iPad, enabling image transfer, remote control, and the ability to view, edit, and share photos effortlessly.
