Extended information:

On June 24th, 219, Leica released a new entry-level M-system camera Leica M-E, which made the M-system camera easier to use than ever before. Like all other Leica M cameras, the Leica M-E camera systematically reflects Leica's design concept, that is, eliminating the complexity and simplifying the nature of photography, thus achieving more intuitive control and making users concentrate on the most important things-composition and shooting.

Leica M-E camera (model 24) inherits the iconic design and high-quality technology. The compact fuselage structure effectively resists dust and water splashing, and has leather trim. The top and bottom plates of the camera are made of metallic charcoal gray paint specially developed for Leica M-E camera.

Like other M-series cameras, users of Leica M-E cameras can benefit from the extended compatibility of the system. Its M-mount is completely compatible with almost all Leica M-series lenses, which is also a remarkable feature of M-series.
