Leica M EV1 Mirrorless Camera with Summilux-M 35mm f/1.4 ASPH Lens Kit

The M encapsulates the essence of our philosophy like no other camera. It embodies timeless aesthetics and true photographic authenticity, paired with uncompromising craftsmanship and exceptional image quality. The Leica M EV1 honours this legacy while expanding its horizons.

The Easiest Way to Enter the Legendary M-System

Sharpness Precisely Where It Matters Most
With focus assist, the Leica M EV1 offers a seamless entry into the world of M photography. This makes manual focusing a matter of pure precision. Focus peaking highlights the active focus plane with a colored overlay, offering real-time guidance to help you frame your composition. Used separately or additionally, the focus zoom with two levels of magnification ensures precise control. Particularly when using fast Summilux and Noctilux lenses with shallow depths of field and at close range, you can achieve sharp focus with the help of focus assist. For photographs as distinctive as your perspective on the world.

Crystal-Clear OLED Viewfinder
The high-resolution 5.76-megapixel EVF delivers brilliant colors and outstanding clarity, capturing every detail of your subject. All shooting data - shutter speed, aperture, ISO and exposure compensation - can be shown outside the image, allowing you to maintain full focus on your composition. An individually configurable eye sensor enables smooth transitions between the viewfinder and touch panel, while the diopter adjustment from -4 to +2 fine tunes the viewfinder image to suit your vision.

See Your Images Before You Take Them
The Live View exposure preview displays every nuance - from brightness to image framing - in real time. Whether you're working with ultra-wide-angle or super-telephoto lenses or creative photo filters, you maintain complete control over your composition, without ever taking your eye away from the camera. All settings are instantly visible, unlocking new creative possibilities with the Leica M. Using advanced tools like digital zoom, level gauge and perspective control, you can compose your images with precision, freedom and intuition.

Outstanding Image Quality
Technically, the Leica M EV1 builds on the foundation of the M11, featuring its 60 MP BSI CMOS full-frame sensor with Triple Resolution Technology - one of the world's most advanced. Precise color rendering, remarkable detail and a high dynamic range lend images the unmistakable Leica Look, with vivid depth and striking presence. Images can be captured in DNG or JPEG format at resolutions of 60, 36 or 18 MP. The powerful Maestro III processor handles data swiftly and reliably, storing it either on the 64 GB internal memory or an SD card.

Small Lever, Big Impact
The classic frame selector on the front of M-Cameras equipped with an optical viewfinder takes on a new function in the M EV1. It can be individually configured to activate one of the focus assist functions or the digital zoom for the EVF. Moving the lever to the left or right allows you to switch swiftly and intuitively between functions, ensuring your subject remains in view throughout. Through this considered refinement, the M EV1 combines classic mechanics with contemporary functionality.

Seamless Connection with the Leica FOTOS App
The Leica M EV1 connects swiftly and securely to the Leica FOTOS App via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or cable. Images can be reviewed, edited, backed up and shared straight away. Background transfer guarantees optimal speed: it automatically transfers previews to your smartphone via Bluetooth in an energy-efficient way. This ensures that all images are accessible at any time.
