Leica M10, M10P and M10D Review

- My first CZcams upload, my first vlog and not just any upload, a Leica M10 review, or why I got into the M system again 7 years after giving up on the Leica M9-P for my photography needs.
This video is what happens when you sleep 3 hours and decide to go running around Paris unprepared and unscripted. Forgot a few things and repeated a lot of stuff.
Video made with Malik / mkjourney on CZcams
The Leica M lenses are small and the colors, sharpness and micro contrasts are simply perfect.
The dynamic range of the M10 camera RAW files is great, the auto white balance is really good. High ISO is really good. Can't complain for my needs, it is perfect.
This camera is so good I bought two Leica M10 within a few months.
All 3 Leica cameras have the same 24 megapixel CMOS sensor, the thumb wheel I programmed on the M10 and M10P for EV comp, up to +3 or -3 on either side in 1/3 increments. Which I seldom use as I tend to not use the aperture priority mode, in A for shutter speed.

Your first vlog, and to me the best M review on YT! Engaging, honest and truly inspiring. Gorgeous photos and scenery, too. Many thanks. I look forward to what is to come!
Thank you greatly appreciated
I need to stop watching reviews of these cameras or I'll end up getting one.
True, this said - they are totally worth it
Too late for me
I totally agree. Absolutely phantastic!
mariogpx which Leica you got?
C Ggg m10
Well done, a great video, really fresh approach, loved some of the shots you set up and took in an instant, well done. I have just treated myself to a Leica M 240 ....can not believe the absolute joy in simplicity and extraordinary quality of the Leica
That's it, joy in simplicity. Only what you need, nothing else !
Great presentation. I genuinely liked the way you portrayed the M10 variations. Looking forward to seeing lots of pictures with your own M10-D soon :).
Thank you, did my best to make a different and fresher camera review. Looking forward to purchasing my very own M10-D :)
This is just an awesome video to hear your experience, to see the cameras in action. Fantastic! I have watched this video multiple times it is so informative to me.
Thank you means a lot
This video is great for so many reasons Patrick! Love the fake french accent, this day in the life of style video and that you're in my favorite city in the world. Perfect blend of information and visual entertainment. It's so inspiring!! Thank you!!
Thank you Teri means a lot, this is an old video.
wow! that's the best review of the M10 I've seen so far. it's entertaining, instructive, and you choose great locations of Paris. I wish you would display the pictures a little bit longer, we don't have enough time to look at them. one more thing ; I would love to see you reviewing the CL. keep up the good work !
Thank you Alexandre, greatly appreciated. Good point about leaving the pictures a little longer, there are a ton of photos on my Instagram too which is more suited for photos @PatrickColpron
I will definitely review more cameras and lenses in the future, but only cameras I currently use in my current photography workflow or would integrate into my workflow, the Leica CL is not the kind of camera I would ever use. The SL on the other hand is.
Lovely review! I look forward to more of this style of video. Good approach to reviewing Leica cameras as well. Everyone keeps trying to justify the expense without stopping for a moment to judge the shooting experience and that's what you're getting (apart from the lovely lenses). Damn that 21 is nice btw! Keep them coming sir, fantastic content.
Thank you, greatly appreciated. There is no justifying the expense, two M10 is ... nuts, yet they do make my shooting experience way more enjoyable
The best camera review on CZcams, in my opinion. Thanks mate!
Thank you Aria, means a lot. I wanted it to be as interesting as possible.
Love, love, love your Instagram photographs...happy to see you're on CZcams now!
Thank you Valerie, greatly appreciated
An excellent and enjoyable vlog thanks for sharing your thoughts on the M10 variants.
I don't own a Leica but hope to at some point, I couldn't agree more about the size of some mirrorless lenses, the idea of having and using a mirrorless system was for me getting a reduction in size and weight yet the opposite is happening as size and weight of the lenses just grows and grows, all the benefits of a smaller system lost.
With a Leica system out of my budget at present my aim is to get a Nikon/Leica M adapter and start using some M mount glass on my Nikon Z7, this will give me a camera/lens combination that is nicely compact and discreet, yet more than capable of delivering some top quality results.
Looking forward to more vlogs from you.
Thank you, greatly appreciated - yes the size and weight of the lenses keep growing and that is odd with some mirrorless system. There are alternatives and some lenses are smaller - but when desiring faster apertures and pro-zoom with constant apertures at 2.8 the lenses, are not smaller than their DSLR equivalent in a lot of cases.
Sony does offer great F/4 zoom lenses - yet - I prefer fast, small primes, Leica was the only logical choice for me :)
Very nice review Patrick. Thank you for your effort and joyful video 🙂
Thank you, greatly appreciated
Please Patrick, don't stop doing videos about your great work.
I understand that is a great effort and I thank you for that.
Regards
Thank you means a lot
Superb review,Patrick.I have been following you on Instagram for some time.This video is even better and shows how it should be done.Quality of the photos is remarkable.Many thanks.
Thank you means a lot!
Awesome job for your first CZcams upload! I love my Leica too!
Thank you greatly appreciated
omg ure a gem. glad that i found a photographer that talks so passionately abt a camera and the medium without being bias abt leica. Much luv
Thank you, greatly appreciated !
Excellent video Patrick! Looking to the next one!
Thank you Stefanos, greatly appreciated
Patrick. Thank you for this video. One of the best M10 ones out there. I moved to a M10 about a month ago and sold all my (heavy) Canon gear. I was really, really worried about the move but I haven't regretted it one bit. I bought a second hand M10 and a single second hand 35mm f2. I couldn't afford the new prices (or the second hand really!) but it's been brilliant, liberating even. I'm just a (serious?) amateur and I know they are very expensive but if you can afford it.... wow.... I've just come back from Cannes and then Jordan and the images are epic. Very little post processing required - pretty much straight of of the file (maybe lift the shadows a bit if you've exposed for the highlights). I was worried about going back to a manual focus camera - I shouldn't have been - it just works.
I've never left a CZcams review ever before and it may be my last.... so thanks again... if this was your first vlog I look forward to more.
Hi Tom,
Thank you so much for the review, greatly appreciated.
You are correct - there is very little post process required and it is so easy to bring back details from the shadows when needed. The dynamic range of the files is great, the colour rendition is perfect.
When I had an M6 and an M9 - I used the 35/2 incredibly sharp and small, absolutely loved that 35 Summicron, a great way - and a wise decision on your part was buying second hand. Most Leica shooters take absolute good care of their Leica cameras and lenses.
They are a true pleasure to shoot with because they are not cumbersome and a Leica M kit remains lighter than a DSLR kit for sure.
Nice comparison! I also find the 35 and 50 Summiluxes to be incredible. I have been shooting film Leicas for many years. My first digital M was the M-D and I recently went to the M10-P. After so long without a screen it's nice to have one again. I have it set for no preview so it's the best of both worlds.
Thank you the M10 is the best of both worlds
Really enjoyed your review. Thank you for sharing all your open and honest thoughts.
Thank you greatly appreciated
Now, you have convinced me to get a Leica M. Thank you for such an informative and exciting vlog. Please do some more vlogs. Paris, one of my favorite cities in the world.
I own a M9 and it's a real delight to make a picture with that tool.
Thank you
@@terencetsy The M9 is also one of the best looking Digital M
Nice video! First time see photographer has Leica M10, M10-P and 10D at the same time.
Thank you greatly appreciated, I do own the Leica M10 and M10P the M10D was on loan from the Leica Academie Paris - I will purchase one to add to my other two M10
Easily the best photographs I've seen in a Leica camera review. I can't wait to receive my M10-P tomorrow (I bought teh P version because they tend to hold their value a bit better than the "normal" versions, not that I am considering ever selling it). Liked and subscribed.
Thank you Brian, greatly appreciated - hope you are enjoying your M10-P
Thanks for this very honest review. Besides, it's fascinating to see all those 3 cameras in one same bag!
Thank you, they are so small, yet heavy.
Wonderful, enjoyable video. I love it. It was a Leica lens that sold me on the Leica M system, too, a pre-owned Summilux-M 50mm ASPH, at a nearby Leica dealer. Nikon and Canon had no 50mm lens to compete with THAT look. I tested the Summilux on a pre-owned M9, and a pre-owned M Type 240, then decided to buy the lens, before I knew which body I could afford. I crunched the numbers, and bought a new M10, with the Summilux, as a retirement gift, for myself. That was in April 2018. Zero regrets.
I absolutely love Leica M lenses, nice retirement gift. I am still an M10 shooter to this day.
Seems you just start your vlog, I love it, keep going.
Yes I did, thank you greatly appreciated
That was a great review!! You hit a chord with me when you mentioned how other mirrorless systems are also small but the lenses can be huge. I’m thinking of Fuji in my case. Owned an xpro2 for a while with several lenses. I laughed when you talked about some people having a ridiculous amount of lenses. I never understood that either. Most people really only use one favorite lens. I’m going to get an m10 and my heart screams m10-d. Your review helped me make up my mind.
Thank you, glad I could help, and yes, you are correct 98% of what I shoot is with one lens.
Cool channel, man. I'm enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you greatly appreciated
Very well done - makes me think about Leica’s again!
Thank you Frits, the M10 is miles above the M9 when it comes to the RAW files, in ideal conditions it is hard to beat. I still use my Nikons - but for portability and photography I mainly use the Leica cameras now. For what I do, they are great.
Great content, great review and informative. The videographer is talented too. Keep the video's coming. Subbed.
Thank you
This is an excellent video, with some really useful comments / opinions about the M10 series. I’ve used Leica film cameras for decades, and heavily invested in bodies / lenses. I’ve also used Nikon film SLRs extensively as well as DSLR, and agree about the size issues, so I keep coming back to Leica. I have an M9 which I use a lot, but will be getting an M10 so this video was exceptionally useful - very many thanks for sharing!
Thank you means a lot, like you I used Nikon DSLR extensively and kept coming back to Leica for photos
This is the best comparison between all M10 variants. Brilliant
Thank you means a lot !
Wow! Love your review Patrick - thank you. I've just ordered and am awaiting delivery of a Q2 but you've now got me wondering if I should keep saving and get an M instead! It's all so much money but you only get one life as they say!
Hi Martin, thank you greatly appreciated.
Cameras are very personal choices. I know a couple of people (3) who purchased the Q a few years back, it is all they use.
It is better to have the best camera you can afford now, instead of waiting until you can afford a more expensive camera.
The Q2 is, having tried it briefly, very light and responsive. It is a camera you'll always have with you. It is so light.
I personally prefer the M with interchangeable lenses, and you are right - only one life..
Keep in mind my M cameras are a business expense, I can write them off, and because they are a business expense I save on the 20% sales tax too.
Absolutely agree Patrick. Realistically the Q2 is the most I can afford right now and it's more than a match for my photographic abilities - I can't wait to start using it. I've been an admirer or Leica for 20 years or more but apart from having a D-Lux for a while (not really a Leica) I've been using Canon, Nikon and most recently the Fuji X-Pro. This is my first proper foray into Leica territory. Who knows, perhaps in a few years time I be able to get myself an M with a couple of lenses but in the meantime I'm just going to shoot the hell out of the Q2.
By the way I like the look of the straps you use. Are they by Artisan & Artist please? The other thing is the spirit bubble in the hot shoe. That's a great idea and I can really see the benefit of it. What make was that please?
You've got to keep the vlogs going - I will definitely be looking out for them as I love your style. It's also great to see some lovely shots of Paris again - especially Place de Vosges. It must be 15 years or so since I've been there but you've inspired me to go back.
Have a great weekend and keep up the excellent work.
@@martincowell572 You will love the Q2 the resolution is stunning and the lens super sharp.
Correct the straps are Artisan & Artist model Acam 100A I buy them on Amazon
The spirit level is from a company in Ontario Canada, called Jobu Design - I purchased these levels back in 2012, just checked their website and looks like it is still available: www.jobu-design.com/Dubble-Bubble-Level_p_58.html.
I find spirit levels to be better for how I shoot than digital levels - except when using a tripod - then the digital level comes in handy
Great, thanks Patrick - I'll check out the link and will most likely get that A&A strap too.
I’m in the same boat, Q2 or M10p....47 megapixels, autofocus, macro, leaf shutter, half the money....vs 24 megapixels but interchangeable lenses and manual focus. It’s the size of the M system, camera and a 50mm on it, a 28 and 75 in the bag, takes up no room and travels all day no issues.
Good, thorough and funny review, with which I can agree for the most part. You had me with the frog accent in the beginning! Great camera, great lenses, great city. The M made me a better, more consious photographer the last couple of years.
Thank you greatly appreciated and you are correct the M also makes me a better and more conscious photographer - the M is the thinking man's camera
A very nice vlog. The explanation of the camera differences was very good and your video cameraman captured the beauty of Paris well.
Thank you, just wish he didn't drink so much during shooting - everything is slightly out of focus ;-) Kidding he doesn't drink
Très bien! I am currently abroad in France and would love to see more videos about cool photography locations in Paris!
Working on it! :-)
Very good points. Thanks for this beautiful video.
Cheers Frédéric
Merci Frédéric
The BEST Leica review I’ve ever seen
Thank you means a lot, just didn't want to do a review sitting behind a desk. Everyone does that
Thanks Patrick. Thanks for showing us Paris and how you use your Leica's
That you, my pleasure
Enjoyed your Leica M video. Refreshing change. Pls show more of the photos you make while you were walking around.
Thank you, greatly appreciated. Working on it
Great video Patrick! Going to start saving up for a Leica! My carry would be Leica M6 and the M10-P if I wanted to have a screen. Let the saving begin!
Thank you means a lot. You will love the M10!
Great video and it addresses the deep yearning for a simple camera devoid of bells,whistles and endless digital clutter.
Yes simple and keeping it to the essentials for photography no gimmicks
Leica is my dream camera system. I’m always trying hard and saving money for getting into this system. Currently, I am using cheap Sony a7rii with its big glasses. I hate it and am always thinking to get into Leica system. Thanks for the video and Leica makes me always excited.
Thank you, means a lot. Leica was a dream for me too. I purchased new and I see great deals on older M models and lenses on the second hand market. Look on Leica centric forums you may find what you are looking for - for way way less than new prices to start.
Love your bag Patrick...and the photography from the Leica
Thank you Eddy, greatly appreciated
Sweet! I use the system since M8, sharing your thoughts. I really like that you know what’s great about it and have some reference shooting other systems and formats. Still you seem to be not religious about it. It’s a tool and a very comfortable one in comparison. I go even further in size by saying i decided to buy the smallest lenses they built, crons and elemarit( especially the 28)
Those lenses are tiny light and rendering superb. The new luxes are all superb and the 21 probably the worlds best lens but huge for M standards. If you need more light then cron get a noctilux, other then that the smallest is the best in my opinion.
Good luck with you channel mate, nice to see a great review nice comparison and true words other then just prayers of the redeemer camera.
I don’t buy that the lens of choice if you could one have one ☝️ would be the 21.
Thank you Mario, I am not religious about any brands, they all have their pros and cons. I agree about the smaller lenses, I really want the smallest possible 28mm for it and the current 28/2.8 is just perfect.
Great first attempt! Love it
Thank you
"You can always earn more money; you can't earn more time."
This is why Patrick's review is the best!
Thank you means a lot
I love that you reviewed all three! This is a down to earth and practical review. I have M10D and got it to do manual but so far have not mastered it.... can you do a vlog on this?
I will do a vlog on it - but it is truly a matter of practice and knowing how the camer meters - then use the LED lights in the view finder as a guide.
Excellent review, I used the M10 at a Leica event over a year ago - I viewed it as the best camera I have never owned, and couldn't afford. I aspire to own one with the 35mm cron. It's my only bucket list item.
To let time pass while I do that, I bought a used Nikon Df, with a 50mm lens - it's not the same to shoot, but provides similar images when you compare them side by side.
Forgot to add I agree with the colour profile out of Leica camera is better than any other I have used. I actually love my Leica X colour profile straight out of the camera. It's amazing.
Thank you Dave greatly appreciated. I made sacrifices to get these two M and lenses, I only buy the cheapest clothes I can find at the GAP and wear my shoes out before buying a new pair among other things, knowing these cameras will pay for themselves and then some over time. I tend to keep using cameras and lenses a long time before upgrading.
@@PatrickColpron Nice strategy, and I know your pain - I am not known for wearing fancy clothing, or owning the latest designer items, or tech. I reckon in about five years time I will have the cash to buy one with a lens outright. Worth the wait I think.
Informative, interesting and good work. Thank you!
Thank you
One of the best reviews I've seen. 55 years a Nikon guy including carrying 2 in Vietnam, and Koni Omega Rapid for press and many weddings. Now shooting with the M 10 and find it to be superb, but wow, is it expensive! However, I firmly believe you get what you pay for. By the way, my Fuji X Pro 3 is also a great rig, but it tries to imitate the Leica.Not quite. Good, but not quite.
Thank you Dave, means a lot.
I loved Nikon but recently traded everything in for another system.
The M10 is the best Digital Leica ever made, keeping those for the duration.
I really enjoy your review. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, means a lot, really tried to make it as interesting and informative as possible
Thanks for interesting and long detailet rewiev!:) all time during video plays i touch my dlux6 and shoot things around me)))) its very interesting to try a full frame leica cameras:)
Thank you
Great review thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Thank you, greatly appreciated
Leica M rangefinders are game changing cameras, they change the way you shoot. I have an M10 and it has elbowed both my M8 and M9 out of the camera bag. Extraordinary and the EVF makes using wides and even long lenses easy. No fiddling with external viewfinders. Small, perfect for street and they do not make people stiffen in terror!
Correct
Love my M10-D! Good vid!
Thank you greatly appreciated
Hi Patrick, I'm impressed a Frenchman?....with a sense of humour. I liked your 1st video.. look forward to some more of the same. How I wish I could afford a Leica ............Panasonic "Lumix" for me...Phil Charters UK...🦊
I never though I would be able to afford cameras at these prices, 20 years ago - hard work pays off
Excellent video. Thank you very much. I am thinking of adding M10 or M10P to my Q2 possibly with 50mm f2 or f1.4. Now you have made my decision for me.
M10 is great, M10P is ... cooler looking for the script on top, with a 50mm go for the M10
The m10-D is a camera I will take to bed with me when I go to sleep! You Sir are very good, I was nodding in my mind to all you were saying, you know what you are talking about, after the vid finished, I wondered if you had anymore, keep the vids coming, I love it!
Thank you, means a lot. I already filmed a sit down with the 3 cameras. Working on it. And yes, more videos to come about pretty much everything - camera, photography, Paris, Social Media Marketing, etc., ...
Really enjoyed your video. As a Leica photographer I found your content very interesting. Merci.
Thank you greatly appreciated
Hey Patrick! Thanks for this entertaining and easy going review😉👍. Would be nice to see more videos of this kind. Hope, you won’t get all the hater comments that automatically come with a Leica review🤪🥳.
Thank you Axel, greatly appreciated. I am aware of the negative comments associated with this kind of review. That is the reason I kept pushing back the making of this video. I was not happy with this draft and decided... what heck! Posted it and now I am rolling with it.
Patrick Colpron Yes of course, sometimes we just have to jump into some kind of cold water😅. Good luck with your channel😉👋!
Great review, thanks.
Thank you, my pleasure
Love all your Instagram profiles! And also Stephanie, Diana, little Calvin!!! Of course I would subscribe a CZcams channel made by you!! Keep up Patrick, all your content are awesome!
Thank you Rafael, means a lot !!
that music at the end was so jarring. a song about listening to third eye blind after walking around paris with leicas haha
yes, the music choice could have been better, just getting started - that was my first vlog.
Fantastic Vlog and your First! Leica M, well addictive, once you use one there is nothing else. in the 90's, I borrowed one for an assignment and had to get one, My first was a M4-P with a 50mm Summicron. I own a few now but by far the M10-P is my favorite. Like all my previous Leica's, it is the one that is always with me as it should. :)
Hi Gregory, thank you for your comment, the M10-P is fantastic, the M10 line up is the best digital M for me, not even looking at the M11, I also love the MP for film
I’m thinking of getting a film MP.
I’m hesitant due to the fact the prints from the M10P are stellar, especially on Canson Infinity Platine photo rag.
@@gregoryvarano8002 Hi Greg, my Leica kit has evolved since I made this video, I now have all five M10 models and two Leica MP, I have been mostly using the Leica MPs for the last few months. I truly love the experience of shooting film, being way way more choosy as to what I shoot and my compositions. It is a more satisfying approach to photography for me. I waited 15 years before purchasing my first Leica MP, I bought my second Leica MP a couple of weeks later. I say go for it - just shop around first to know the price of film stock in your area and also compare labs where you can get your fill processed, printed from the negative and HD scans made. Once you factor that cost in - you will have a better idea of what you are getting into cost wise. In my opinion, it is well worth it.
@@PatrickColpron ok I broke down and purchased a mint second hand Leica m4-2 with a 50mm F2 Summicron v3. Both have been CLA'd and in top condition. I sold my M4P last year and my M7.I missed my film Leica and now it is back and I couldn't be happier. There is something truly special using a Film M camera, the feel the sound or lack of due to the fantastic the shutter ( of course the M10p is quieter but also electronic not mechanical as is the M7). Most importantly the results!
@@gregoryvarano8002 I agree, their is something special about using an M film camera and the M4-2 is a fantastic camera plus combined with a version 3 summicron that is a killer combo.
Great review, this make me consider to buy m10. Very good job.👍
Thank you means a lot
Thanks for your review of the Leica M system Patrick! I am a new millennium shooter having only ever shot digital starting photography only in 2003. I started with Nikon, Canon DSLR’s which I did some paid weddings and then to Leica M8, then back Canon, to Fuji, Sony A7 series and then the Leica MP240 in 2017, adding a T (701). i see in the Leica M sensors a 3D pop and sharpness i cannot describe. Even the M is sharper than T. The T showed the same sharpness though when i used the huge 24-90SL with a non-existent AF on the T. There is probably some truth in using native lenses: M lenses for M rangefinder sensor.
Thank you, yes Leica M and Native Leica lenses are a great marriage for super sharp photo making - really looking hard at the SL2 now cause that 24-90 is awesome
nice review. i used to shoot M then switched systems. Now i just got a Film Leica MP which is amazing, about to get an M10 as i really enjoy shooting with the rangefinder. I have a GFX for high end stuff, but its kind of bulky for travels.
I hear you, I went with the M simply because it is so much smaller than pretty much everything out there while delivering astounding results
You're a natural, excellent review.
thank you Joe, means a lot
Best M10 review on youtube!
Thank you Linton, means a lot
Bonjour Patrick , merci beaucoup pour ta revue , ces très belle photos de Paris . Je devine toute ses heure de travaille et d`effort qu`il vous aura fallu pour réaliser cette excellente vidéo , j`espère que vous en ferez plein d`autre comme celle-la . Je suis un heureux possesseur d`un leica M9 et j`espere bientot d`un M240 . Encore merci
Merci Mark très apprécié.
Great review, interesting and informative.
Thank you
Just one word : GREAT
Thank you means a lot !
Hi. I really enjoyed your review. Could you possibly make one showing how you meter with the M system?
Thank you Jose, yes good idea.
Great video - You're going tp push a lot of people off the Leica cliff! Personally, I bought the M10-R with 35 and 50 Luxs to complement my Q2. We have the same Ona bag too!
When I made this video the R wasn't announced yet. You made the right choice with the M10R with both the 35 and the 50 Lux!
That was interesting... I would be curious to see a demonstration and review of some nice leica glass... especially the 21mm summilux you mentioned... anyway keep up the good work...
Thank you Noah, will definitely make Leica lens reviews
You highlight one of the main reasons Leica M10 camera's interest me. They are the only modern digital FF cameras that due to the lens sizes combined with the body size and shape are actually truly compact enough. good looking enough, and blend in enough to be a take everywhere camera. I love my D800 but it's not really a camera that can integrate into your daily life like a Leica M can. Even something like an A7 is bigger and more obtrusive, even if you put adapted M lenses on it. Not to mention the EVF which for me is an automatic no buy and the fact that they are way more fragile. Plus the M is just fun and unique camera to use. It's a real photographers camera. The lines, the shape, the durability, the feel in your hand, the Leica is a work of art in itself. Which makes it a joy to use and something you can really appreciate for a visual artist like a photographer. It puts you in a totally different and more artistic mindset than using the latest neato gadget camera that does a lot of fancy things but is just a utilitarian tool with no soul. That they managed to keep the soul and feel of the M cameras in the digital transition is just amazing engineering that I really appreciate a lot.
There is nothing quite like the M, and Leica did it right with the M10 stripping all the non essentials away
You are an exceptional photographer on this forum. You speak normally, like an intelligent adult. Your pictures are imaginative and esthetically pleasant, not to mention that they are technically perfect. I wish there were more reviews as informative and relaxing to watch as yours.
"You can earn more money but you cannot earn more time!"
Genial! I thought you were an exceptional Frenchman but now I learned you are Canadian. OK. That explains it!
Please do not ever transform into another talking head. There are too many of them already.
Thank you, greatly appreciated
Update: I have an M9-P and an M10-R now and it is your fault.
Perfect review 🏅
Thank you means a lot
Ah enfin un Parisien pour parler street photos ça fait du bien! Cocorico! Ces boitiers M font vraiment rêver (surtout le M10D 😍) malheureusement pas à la portée de toutes les bourses! Le Q2 par contre est sur toutes les lèvres et pour avoir essayé c’est quand même une petite bombe. Un review/comparatif du Q2 est à venir sur cette chaîne?
Je l'ai essayer, tester le Q2, mais très rapidement, seulement 1hr en mains. Je demanderai au Leica Store pour un emprunt de quelques jours.
Thank you for the best M10 comparison vlog ever!
I am an amateur with the Sony a7S and 3 lenses but I love my Fuji X100V more. Why? Because it has an optical viewfinder and looks like a rangefinder and allows for "Leica-like" composition using the OVF but it gives me the reassurance of a small EVFin the lower right-hand corner that shows the actual focus. I hope to some day have the money for a Leica and your vlog convinced me. I hope my Fuji X100V will be my "bridge" to the true rangefinder that Leica is.
Thank you Stuart, means a lot. There's always good deals to be had on the second hand market on Leica cameras and lenses.
Enjoyed the video. I have a LONG way to go before I can get my hands on a Lecia.
I never thought I would have one M10 let alone 2... one day you will for sure !
Very informative. Keep it up.
Thank you greatly appreciated
Very honest and truthful review
Thank you
I wish Leica had the guts to make a b/w + color M10-d as their new entry/floor to the digital M series. Not only more basic in features, but price as well. That might recapture some of the audience lost because of the sensor corrosion fiasco in many M8/M9 cameras.
I would love an M10-D or M11-D Monochrome that would be the bomb. Not sure they would sell it at a lower price point, but then make it black paint
Great channel, I wish you 50k followers by EOY, keep up this good work!
Thank you greatly appreciated
Great vdo. Very unique style.
Thank you greatly appreciated
Your music is good. When I first got my M10 I was angry. The noise was noticeably worse than my a7III. The low light performance also seemed to be an order of magnitude worse than my Sony. I've since learned to love my Leica for what it is, and I use it almost exclusively these days.
Thank you. I never had a Sony I am sure the a7III is better at high iso, yet I can't complain about the noise level of the Leica, it is not that bad compared to the Nikon cameras I had and the Canon cameras I now have but then again the a7III is also on another level for low light. I still shoot the M10 and still love it yet seldom use it in low light. And like you for photos it is pretty much all I still use for my photography
Excellente vidéo !
Thank you
I loved your Video!
Thank you greatly appreciated
Great video! Well done, subscribed
Thank you means a lot
Please Patrick, can you do some more videos. You have a real talent for communication.
Thank you Chris, working on a couple of videos just at the script level now. Trying to plan better for the next ones
Never saw an intro with that much quality
Thank you
You nailed it with your view on the M concept.
Thank you
Hi, I really liked your video. I shoot with the m10 and the 35mm f1.4 Summilux and the camera is so much fun. I watched your video twice, I liked it so much. The simplicity of the m10 and the Leica glass with the image rendering is the best. I liked the way you took those low to ground photos with the reflections in the water. Did you focus peak focus in the cathedral? I hope to add the visoflex in the future. The camera comparisons was excellent to. Thank you.
Thank you Richard, means a lot. The M with a 35 is a perfect match. I did not focus peak when I make photos close to the ground for reflection I pre-focus using the rangefinder and also pre-set my exposure, in this case the focus was easy, simply set to infinity. A spirit hot show level, or bubble level help a lot in getting the shot level, which is best got puddle reflection. I have a few Visoflex, but so seldom use them, I'd avoid getting one. Unless you make a lot of photos at night where I find it useful to set your exposure, these days I just use live view when I beed to yet do so very seldom. The M10 remains the best digital M for how I shoot and still use them to this day
Bien joué Patrick. J‘ai vu plusieurs présentations sur le système Leica M et la votre est vraiment complète et utile. Le Leica M10 D me plait aussi. Merci
Mille mercis, très apprécié
Great stuff.

Thank you, come for a visit again when this Covid thing passes over !
The size of mirrorless lenses in full frame is massive!
I KNOW! It is crazy, smaller camera BIGGER lenses :-)))
Great review Patrick, can you clarify what you meant at 19:07 when you discussed keeping all those highlights in one exposure vs. using HDR. Seems the video got snipped. Are you just saying the dynamic range is good? Or did you use some setting in that scenario? Was it in regard to focus peaking? Thanks !
Thank you, at 19:07 I meant the dynamic range, you can really bring out the details in the shadows, no need for multiple exposure when you can expose for the highlight.
