Leica said to plan Hammertone M11-P and M-A editions for November 12

Leica Rumors' October roadmap expects Hammertone editions of the M11-P and/or M-A on November 12, a Q3 43 Monochrom before the end of 2026, and an M12 rather than an M11-R in early 2027. Further out, it lists a metal gray SL3 Reporter, a mirrorless medium format camera, and a run of M and L-mount lenses, including an APO-Summicron-M 50mm f/2 with closer focusing and an SL 85mm f/1.4.

Leica M12 could arrive in early 2027, with modest changes

Leica Rumors now says the next M will be called the M12 rather than an M11-R. It's expected in early 2027 and reportedly already in production. It would keep the M11's 60MP sensor and processor, not the Gpixel sensor rumored earlier, and add a larger rear screen, with the buttons moved to the right side like the SL3-P and Q3.
