Shoot more, carry less.Īlbeit saddening, the discontinuation of the M7 doesn’t mean the end of the line for Leica film cameras. Having fewer components like mirrors and prisms to deal with, the M7 is shaven down to only have the absolutely necessary parts. Since it’s a rangefinder, it is lighter than most SLRs and is also more compact. The M7 is also quiet thanks to its horizontal focal plane rubber-covered cloth shutter, making it a viable choice for times when you need to take discreet photographs.Īnother quality that makes the M7 a good camera is its form factor and weight.
Much like the other rangefinders in the M Series, the M7 accepts lenses with its M-mount - meaning there are tons of nice lenses with high-quality optics to choose from. There are other things to be expected of the Leica M7 aside from good quality and charming looks, it’s also a performer.
