“Leica M” Book: A Homage to the First 70 Years
The “Leica M” Book
A homage to the first 70 years.
The Leica M-System has seamlessly blended tradition and innovation for seven decades, inspiring generations of photographers and shaping visual culture while continually setting new standards. This book celebrates the first 70 years of this iconic camera, offering over 250 pages filled with insightful essays, legendary photographs, rarely seen archival materials, and more.
Since its inception, the Leica M has been the preferred tool of trend-setting photographers. Henri Cartier-Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, Mary Ellen Mark, and modern luminaries like Matt Stuart have trusted and continue to trust the M-System to take their visionary pictures. Spanning over 250 pages, the Leica M book presents an exciting cross-section of this work – from the legends of photographic history to the exciting newcomers from recent years.
An icon of photography: The M3 from 1954 set standards with its unique rangefinder and was continuously developed over the following decades. The M6 added integrated exposure metering, the M9 was the first digital full-frame rangefinder camera, and special editions like the M Monochrom revolutionized black-and-white photography.
In addition to publishing the book, we are also celebrating 70 years of the M-System with an extensive exhibition in Wetzlar, an exclusive M special edition set featuring an elegant platinum-plated finish, and a special anniversary photo contest on the innovative Picter platform.

The iconic M-System has been bringing together tradition and innovation for seven decades.
