Leica M Edition 60

A limited stainless steel digital rangefinder built for dedicated digital shooters, made to mark the M 240.

Overview

The Leica M Edition 60 is a special edition digital rangefinder, an anniversary model of the Leica M 240. Leica made it. It belongs to the compact digital rangefinder line and uses the M-series bayonet mount, so it works with all Leica M lenses. It is a refined variant of the M 240 with a film-like body: magnesium frame, stainless steel top plate. Leica positions it as a camera for digital-focused photographers, not a general-purpose one, with the emphasis on build quality within the digital M series.

Design

The body is magnesium with a stainless steel top plate. The chassis follows the film rangefinder layout, with modern digital internals. The Leica M bayonet mount takes a wide range of M-series lenses.

Context

The Leica M Edition 60 sits in Leica's digital rangefinder family, listed alongside the M Type 240, M-P Typ 240, M 246 Monochrom, M 262, M-D 262, and M10. It is a commemorative model built on the M 240 platform, with its own look and build.
