Whats cool about it is that its stainless steel and beautiful. Stainless's density is about the same as Brass' so its not anything that users will find very heavy. Battery life is crazy without the rear screen and live view. The top plate is much narrower so it looks more slimmer in ways. Paid with the 35mm f1.4 with which it came, looks great. many bought it for the lens when the price went down to $12K and sold the body.
Took me a few minutes to realise there's no strap lugs on the body. I've always wanted the screenless M262, that body appeals to me. It would have been great had they done a Monochrome version of that camera.
I asked Leica if they could add the lugs and they told me no, they dont change anything on special edition units, goes against their policies. I went ahead and made a custom piece that mounts to the bottom 1/4" tripod thread. The piece has 2 lugs side by side and I attached a strap to that. It works great and is easy to reposition and shoot without the straps getting in the way.
Thanks for featuring the M60.
