What's the difference between Leica's M series, S series, R series and lux series?

Lycra except M machine is made in Lycra, Germany, and some parts of R machine are made in Germany. It can be said that R machine is a "hybrid" and it is also produced in other places.

In addition, in fact, M8/M8.2 and m9 are not made in Germany, and CCD is made in Kodak. Leica is very backward in electronics. D-LUX4, C-LUX3 and previous generations were all made by Panasonic in Japan, but the lenses were made by Leica itself, and the colors were later shipped back to Germany for Leica engineers to adjust.

Lycra D-LUX4 and Panasonic LX3 are the same model, and the data and appearance are made by the same factory. But it is obvious that the color of Lycra is better. The color of Panasonic LX3 is obviously not as rich as Lycra. Lycra c-LUX3 is not very good, to be honest. Just so-so

D-4 has a good color, and many professional enthusiasts like to use it as an auxiliary machine. In fact, D-4 is very good, but it is very expensive now, close to 10000 yuan, and we have to book it. If it is licensed, it will be cheaper in Guangzhou.

The upcoming X 1 seems to be made in Japan, so I won't comment before it is released. ? The latest SLR S series, which many players care about, is 56% higher than that of Quan Huafu, so it can't be called 135 SLR camera. This lens is made in Japan. ? If you play lycra, there are still many people playing film.

Extended data

From the birth of the first camera to the present, there may be many famous brands in the history of camera development, even in our lives. However, in the history of camera development, for users, choosing a certain brand of camera is not choosing that camera, but choosing a lifestyle. Such brands are rare.

Leica series cameras are almost a myth, with the same face for half a century, extremely simple functions and uncompromising production. In the position where everyone wants to subvert, but no one succeeds. Its advantages and disadvantages are endless, so as long as we talk about Leica, the scene will be lively. Well said, full of emotion, not so good, but also specious.

It is said that in Britain, some gentlemen don't take pictures. They often wear Leica as a status symbol. Japan is a big camera producer, but it has the largest number of Leica fans in the world. Leica has too many myths, and sometimes it loses some sense of reality. It can be said that Leica has already surpassed the status of tools and risen to a cultural phenomenon.

For Leica, inheriting culture is an honor and a burden. Leica has the strangest and most stubborn fans in the world. Other camera enthusiasts are waiting for new features and styles, but Leica fans think that changing a small turntable is a waste of time.
