These include a new triple resolution 60.3 megapixel BSI CMOS sensor, up to 8K video with ProRes and a new Hybrid AF system.
The processor has also been updated to the next generation Maestro IV engine, which delivers significant enhancements such as faster 15fps burst shooting and improved low light performance with ISO now up to 100,000.
The robust camera body features the same IP 52 water resistance and the lens is the same outstanding Leica Summilux 28 f/1.7 ASPH., with 11 elements in 9 groups, including 3 aspherical elements and integrated macro mode. Leica has increased digital zoom to 90mm, added a higher resolution tiltable LCD and updated the resolution of the viewfinder.
