Leica M12 Rumored Specs
- The Leica M12 will be 3mm smaller compared to the current Leica M11.
- a new hybrid viewfinder like the Fuji X100 or maybe even a 100% electronic viewfinder.
- The ISO dial on the top left could be completely removed.
- A new dial could be introduced behind the shutter button that can be controlled with the thumb.
- Large 3.9″ screen on the back (the M11 has a 2.95″ screen).
- The large screen means also removing most (all?) buttons from the back of the camera – maybe we will get a touchscreen interface similar to the Leica TL:
