Leica's M-series of digital rangefinders are known for their stealthiness (fun fact: they're the only cameras allowed in several courtrooms in the U.S. precisely for their near-silent operation). For the latest iteration of the M, the M10-P, Leica has doubled down on discreteness.

Thanks to a redesigned shutter, the M10-P is the quietest M camera on the market (analog or digital). The classic Leica red dot logo has also been removed from the front of the camera body. Instead, there's more covert Leica branding on the camera's top plate.



The M10-P is also the first M-series camera to offer a 3-inch touch screen display, with support for focus confirmation in live view mode plus pinch-to-zoom and swiping capabilities during image playback. There's also a new level gauge, visible through the EVF or rear display, when shooting in live view mode.

Like its predecessor the M10, the M10-P features a 24-megapixel sensor with a native ISO range of 100-50,000. It has 2GB of buffer memory with continuous shooting speeds up to 5fps. There's built-in Wi-Fi and it's compatible with the accessory Visoflex EVF, which also adds GPS capability to the camera. The Visoflex is sold separately for $575.

The M10-P is available now for $7,995. The M10 will remain on the market.
