Leica M10-R Digital Rangefinder Camera Black Chrome Summary
Leica’s purist approach to photography has culminated in the M10-R Digital Rangefinder Camera (Type 6376) which is seen here in classic black chrome colour. This camera represents another huge leap forward with extensive developments in useability and image quality from a new full-frame CMOS colour sensor which delivers 40.89 megapixels of stunning detail. Advanced Dual Gain sensor technology allows the sensor to capture a broader dynamic range as well as boasting excellent low light performance with a native ISO of 100-50,000. New body haptics provide sensory feedback whilst the photographer is immersed in the sophisticated experience which this light 660g compact model provides.
When this camera is combined with high quality APO models in the Leica M System lens range, the details from the high resolution sensor shine with the M10-R Rangefinder delivering stunning image quality. The allmetal and brass body is also designed to provide photographers with a lifetime of reliable and versatile service. The body is manufactured in Germany and embraces useability and ergonomics from previous generations of M10 rangefinders while pushing technology further than ever. It sports a completely silent shutter, ideal for many shooting situations from street photography and portraits to weddings, whilst providing intuitive touchscreen useability and familiar dials with a three button layout.

Our Verdict
Leica Rangefinders are highly desirable cameras which provide users with a refined, immersive shooting experience steeped in decades of manufacturing history. The black chrome M10-R continues this trend whilst also delivering highly advanced, class-leading specifications. The wide dynamic range of the new sensor and broad ISO capabilities allow photographers to continue working throughout any low light situations, capturing stunning high resolution detail that this level of digital photography provides. The silent shutter and light, compact body enable this system to be used discreetly anywhere at any time, particularly when combined with new haptic feedback from the body. Images are swiftly processed by the latest Leica Maestro II processor and stored on either of the two SD card slots.
New features broaden the appeal of the M10-R and include longer shooting times of up to 16 minutes. The responsive high resolution touch display is simple to use and detailed with 1,036,800 pixels (also found in the M10-P) while the Rangefinder system provides seamless connection with Leica FOTOS for quick and easy sharing. Wifi connectivity and an optional GPS viewfinder ensures that photographers can share their images wherever they may be travelling. Familiar ergonomics and a huge range of compatible M System lenses provide lucky owners with a lifetime of enjoyable photographic service, shared with some of the most notable photographers in the world.
