Leica Rumors spotted this new teaser from Leica on their website. It is for a new Mini M camera–or at least that is the codeword. Right now, the Leica M-E is essentially known as the more affordable M product, but basically has the same sensor as the old M9 and M9-P did. The new Leica M though is quite astonishing according to DXOMark as the sensor outdoes the new Canon 5D Mk III.

Something that many Leica fans have been asking for for a long time is a digital version of the Leica CL. It was the camera that I was trained on and it was beautiful in every way. But if Leica creates this digital version then they will be answering the calls of many a photographer. Additionally, their prices have come down in the recent years on their camera bodies but their lens prices keep going up.

What do you think this new Mini M could be? Do you also think that we’ll see a new X3?
