Leica M8 with Leica M10 Overview


Let's compare M10 with M8. Both cameras produced Leica. These models are included in the Pro Mirrorless cameras. Leica M10 was released in 2017, and Leica M8 in 2007. M10 is newer, which is a plus. M8 10 years older. 10 years, this is a pretty big age difference.
The sensor resolution of M10 is greater than that of M8. The difference of 14 MP is quite a lot. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (M8), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. At Leica M10, the maximum ISO is greater by 47500. Leica M10 has a larger 3-inch Fixed screen, the other camera has a 2-inch Fixed screen.
Both cameras have a optical (rangefinder) viewfinder. All viewfinders has no electronic viewfinderk dot resolution. Burst mode, also called continuous shooting mode, sports mode or continuous high speed mode, is a shooting mode in still cameras. Leica M10 has n/a fps continuous shooting.
