Today I’m heading to Berlin for the Leica ‚Das Wesentliche‘ Event. I expect to see the announcement of the M9 Monochrome and a new version of the X1, maybe with a Summilux 50mm attached. Let’s see if they have something else to tell us about.
I’m also looking forward to meet a few people and shoot some photos in the streets of Berlin tomorrow evening.

I’ll post a summary of the event here on the blog and will also tweet live @_martinwolf.

Mirrorless Rumors:

Our super good sources informed us that the new Leica M camera coming on May the 10th will feature a Black and White Full Frame sold by Platinum Equity. As you know Platinum acquired the Kodak business and they are going to sell the Kodak developed Black and White sensor to Leica.

Next thursday we know for sure.
