The Original Compact M | Leica CM Film Point and Shoot Camera Review

Описание: The Leica CM is a compact point and shoot film camera built with a titanium body and houses a 40mm f2.4 Summarit lens. This lens encompasses the final design Leica made for the 40mm focal length. Even though this lens was built for the Leica CM, Leica took the design of the 40mm f2 Summicron-C and refined it into a sharp lens with modern characteristics. This camera succeeded the Leica Minilux and was produced from 2004-to 2006, making it a rare camera to find with such a limited production time. To compete against big names such as the Contax T2/T3 and Nikon 35ti, Leica had to redesign the Minilux which had a common ribbon cable issue and small viewfinder. The Leica CM resolved the Minilux error issue as well as added a larger viewfinder, a more user friendly LED screen, and simplified the body design which is inspired by M cameras at the time. Thus making this camera a compact M camera or CM in short.
