Canon M vs Leica M11

Let's examine more in depth at the Canon M and Leica M11, one is a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the other is a Pro Mirrorless by manufacturers Canon and Leica. There exists a big gap among the image resolutions of the M (18MP) and M11 (60MP) and the M (APS-C) and M11 (Full frame) possess totally different sensor sizing.

The M was released 10 years earlier than the M11 which is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going straight into a comprehensive comparison, below is a simple overview of how the M grades versus the M11 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS M and Leica M11. The complete galleries are viewable at Canon M Gallery and Leica M11 Gallery.

In case you're aiming to travel with your camera often, you're going to have to factor in its weight and measurements. The Canon M offers external measurements of 109mm x 66mm x 32mm (4.3" x 2.6" x 1.3") and a weight of 298 grams (0.66 lbs) whilst the Leica M11 has proportions of 139mm x 80mm x 39mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.5") having a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ depending on the lens you have chosen at that time. Underneath is the front view over all size comparison of the M versus the M11.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the M and M11 is 89 and 76 respectively.

Sometimes, it is very difficult to envision the gap in sensor dimensions simply by viewing a spec sheet. The image below should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the M and M11.

As you can see, both of those cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The M due to its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF trickier and the Leica M11 will render greater detail as a result of its extra 42 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos far more aggressively. The more aged M will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
