Leica M Edition 60 with Leica M9 Overview


Let's compare M9 with M Edition 60. Both cameras produced Leica. These models are included in the Pro Mirrorless cameras. Leica M9 was released in 2009, and Leica M Edition 60 in 2014. M Edition 60 is newer, which is a plus. M9 5 years older.
The sensor resolution of M Edition 60 is greater than that of M9. The difference of 6 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 (M Edition 60), 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 M Edition 60, the maximum ISO is greater by 3900. Leica M Edition 60 has a larger 3-inch Fixed screen, the other camera has a 2-inch Fixed screen.
