The lenses are fully mechanical and very reliable, making vintage lenses a practical proposition for contemporary photography. New lenses are still made by Leica, Zeiss and Voigtländer (Cosina). As a result, the M 262 is compatible with a vast range of objectives providing just about any conceivable rendering and any conceivable price point.

The mechanically coupled rangefinder and lens mount used in the M 262 is essentially unchanged from that first implemented for the iconic Leica M3 in 1954. The camera can display any of three pairs of frame lines corresponding to 28/90mm, 35/135mm, 50/75mm – using any other focal length requires an external viewfinder mounted in the flash hot-shoe.

The outer white lines mark what what will be captured with a 50mm lens attached, while the small central patch is used to set focus. But equally there is also no auto-focus, no live-view, no video, no automatic sensor cleaning, no close-focusing, no image stabilisation, no wireless connectivity, and the metering is about as primitive as it gets. This is a camera that is blissfully free of digital “clutter”, such as scene modes, panoramas and fake-tilt-shift effects.

In fact, the camera is defined more by what it does not implement than what it does. compatibility with almost any Leica lens made in the last 60 years, or older if you do not mind using an adapter.a 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor with 24MP resolution.
