Leica M11 vs Leica M11 Monochrome

Below, we will be looking at the Leica M11 and Leica M11 Monochrome, both Pro Mirrorless cameras and they are both produced by Leica. The sensor resolution of the M11 (60MP) and the M11 Monochrome (60MP) is relatively comparable and they enjoy the exact same sensor sizes (Full frame).

The M11 was released 15 months prior to the M11 Monochrome which makes the cameras a generation apart from each other. Both the cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving through a comprehensive comparison, below is a quick summation of how the M11 matches up vs the M11 Monochrome when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Leica M11 and Leica M11 Monochrome. The complete galleries are available at Leica M11 Gallery and Leica M11 Monochrome Gallery.

If you are looking to lug around your camera often, you will want to factor in its weight and proportions. The Leica M11 offers external measurements of 139mm x 80mm x 39mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.5") accompanied by a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs) and the Leica M11 Monochrome has measurements of 139mm x 80mm x 39mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.5") along with a weight of 640 grams (1.41 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you select at that moment. Below is the front view scale comparison of the M11 and the M11 Monochrome.

Considering size and weight, the portability score of the M11 and M11 Monochrome is 76 and 76 respectively.

Generally, it is very tough to envision the difference in sensor measurements merely by checking out specs. The photograph here will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the M11 and M11 Monochrome.

As you can plainly see, both cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements and the same exact megapixels and you should expect comparable quality of images though you should always consider the production date of the cameras into account. The older M11 will be behind in sensor tech.
