Leica m ev1 vs leica m11 d?

Both cameras are 60-megapixel full frame bodies on the Leica M mount, and they take the same lenses, so the choice comes down to how you see and focus.

The Leica M11-D is a rangefinder, announced in 2024. It has no rear screen, so you change settings and review shots through your phone. I'd pick it if you want the classic rangefinder feel.

The Leica M EV1 is mirrorless, announced in 2025. It has a built-in electronic viewfinder, so you focus M lenses through it. If you want to see exactly what the lens sees, this is the one.

For a first lens on either body, try the Leica Summilux-M 35mm f/1.4 ASPH for everyday street shooting, or the Leica Summicron-M 50mm f/2 for a small, sharp standard kit.
