The Leica T, like many Leica products, can be a mixed bag. It raises expectations about unprecedented quality with its shiny metal body and high retail price, but quickly disappoints when it comes to the most basic functions such as the lack of an exposu...

The Leica T doesn't really offer any more features than a similarly-priced Nikon or Canon, it has no special tricks, but, it is utterly lovely to hold, operate and be creative with. Machined from a single block of aluminium, it's a minimalist stunner. The...

Good cameras aren't cheap, and better cameras carry heavier price tags than good cameras, so what does a new Leica system aimed at the mirror-less market cost, and is it worth its weight in gold?There are plenty of mirror-less cameras out there, but how m...
Built like a tank; Excellent strap connections that require a SIM ejector pin to remove; Fantastic image quality, especially with the black and whites; Shoots both RAW and JPG, with the RAW photos shot in Adobe's Digital Negative (DNG) format; 16GB storag...
Because it's built like a tank, it can feel a little clunky in the hands; Expensive; Included strap is rubbery, and doesn't feel as premium as the rest of the package; WiFi only works properly with iOS, and even then, it's a pretty severely limited applic...
Leica's T is an unusual beast, with the resulting product being the sort of product you'd buy if you wanted a mirror-less camera, but needed something that sat in the upper echelon of camera spending money.That said, it's hard to recommend the Leica T to...

The Leica T is a very complex camera to discuss. It's incredibly innovative, extremely well built, and carries the entire weight of one of the world's most respected camera companies on its shoulders. It is, in some ways, one of the best mirrorless camera...
The Leica T is expensive, and a cynic would tell you that it's too expensive to stand up in any comparison to the roughly-similar mirrorless cameras from Fujifilm, Olympus, Sony (and even Samsung). Hold one and shoot with one for an extended period of tim...

Leica is known for making expensive cameras most of us can only dream of affording and for creating some of the best lenses money can buy. It is, however, an unknown when it comes to APS-C sensors - the likes of which you would find inside a Sony NEX or N...
If you want a portable Leica and are happy to spend a lot of money on something that is extremely desirable, the T has your name on it. Sure, you could get a full sensor camera for similar money but it will likely weigh a ton or, in the case of the Sony R...

When Leica abandoned its R-System SLRs in 2008, observers and aficionados feared that the brand would slip into a sort of M (rangefinder)-centric slumber. Fortunately, that was not the case and the German brand successfully diversified its range. First th...

No. Unless you're buying a camera purely as a status symbol, there is nothing the Leica T offers that isn't bested by numerous other camera systems out there. Sony Alpha series (formerly NEX), Olympus OM-D, Fuji X-series; they all out-do the T in nearly e...

Hands up if you want to own a Leica M-system digital rangefinder camera? OK, hands down again. Hands up if you can afford one? What about the lenses? Buy a Leica M, or even the less expensive Leica M-E, factor in two or three lenses, and you could easily...
The Leica T (Type 701) probably wasnt what most people were expecting when they imagined a Leica CSC. The lack of an M mount, viewfinder and control buttons will no doubt mean that many photographers write this camera off without even picking it up, whic...

The Leica T does what it does very well indeed. It's slick, sleek, well-made and pleasing to use. It lacks, however, the wow-factor that you'd expect when paying this much for a camera. Ultimately, it doesn't do enough to make a compelling case for itself...
