Wrapping up
At the end of the day, the M Monochrom (Typ 246) is a natural and perfectly executed evolution of the Monochrom concept. It is not revolutionary, like its predecessor, but it doesn’t have to be. The camera is essentially what everyone wanted. The one potential pitfall was using the same EVF2 rather than the newer, higher resolving Visoflex 020. But, here, I actually think Leica made the right decision. Being able to share the same accessories between the M240 and the MM246 is a welcome convenience. During my test shooting, the EVF2 proved to be perfectly capable of handling the majority of compositions (yes, I am an EVF convert), and I never really felt it lacking during use.
The introduction of this next-generation Monochrom means different things for different people. For new potential users waiting on the sidelines for an updated MM, there is no reason not to jump right in. The water’s great. If coming from an M240, the learning curve will be minimal or non-existent. And, for new M shooters, the MM246 will no doubt impress.
But what about existing M9 Mono owners? Should they cast aside their beloved cameras and move up to the latest tech? The fact remains that the M Monochrom will continue to produce the same level of jaw dropping quality in the future as it did the day it was released on the market. The same day that it won over even its harshest critics. If you were happy then with the image quality, continue to be satisfied today and don’t need the advantages that the new technology platform provides, by all means, continue producing great work with the first generation Monochrom. It’s certainly no slouch and has set the bar high. Still, I’m sure that many M9M users will sell or trade-up to get the new camera, and that’s fine too. With an increase in the supply of used M9 Monos, prices will most likely fall to levels where new users can pick one up and join the ranks of Leica B&W shooters. And this is the way it’s always been with Leica. Old Leicas are never disposed of, they just find new homes.
For my part, while I still remain a color photographer at heart, there is no denying that El Jefe will somehow find his way into my camera bag on future outings. The image quality and low light performance is downright addicting and impossible to beat with anything else. ........
