M EV1 overview

The Leica M EV1 is a 60.3 MP full-frame rangefinder for Leica M, announced by Leica in October 2025.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits low light as well as landscape and detail. It is a weaker pick for slow handheld shots with unstabilised lenses, all-day shooting on one battery and paid jobs that need a backup card.

New, it sells for A$14,200 in Australia (Georges Cameras).

Worth comparing it with the Leica M11, Leica M11-P and Leica Q3.

  • 60.3 MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor; no in-body stabilisation, so steadiness comes from stabilised lenses.
  • 3-inch fixed touchscreen; 5.76M-dot electronic viewfinder.
  • Rated for 244 shots per charge (CIPA); USB-C port.
  • One card slot (SD UHS-II + 64GB internal).
  • New kits on sale in Australia: with M 35mm f/2 ASPH (from A$19,890). A kit price is never the body price.
  • No used body-only listings at the stores we track in Australia today: check eBay and the Used filter.

Low light & noise

3.8 µm pixels

60.3 MP on a full frame sensor, ISO up to 50,000

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:

How it stacks up

  • 60.3 MP — more resolution than 56% of the full frame rangefinder cameras we list
