Apparently, they should be shipping very soon. The Monochrom we used couldn't be that far from production quality, everything functioned brilliantly.Awesome! Now, when's mine getting here? I'm going to have to see it again on something other then my IPad.
Thanks for sharing.

Dave-Perhaps the easiest way for young students and anyone else for that matter to experience the M Monochrom would be to go the a Leica Akademie B&W workshop where a full assortment of lens and bodies will await you.Thank you for posting the link, It's a nicely done video and general introduction to what appears to be an exciting addition to digital and especially M rangefinder photography. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the talented work of those here on Getdpi and of many others using this camera, especially in output to print. B&W and street photography of course go hand in hand and it's great to see a younger generation carry on the tradition, but the one area I would love to see expanded on is a more affordable model of a similar camera, so that those students and individuals with more modest means, could embrace this newer approach to imaginative B&W work.
As was expressed/implied towards the end of the video, this camera brings back "age old nostalgic photography" and if it's to accomplish that goal, it would be nice to include budding young talented photographers who desire to shoot with a rangefinder, a tool that they could realistically save up for and afford. I'm definitely excited by this new offering.

The Calgary Leica Academie is coming soon!Dave-Perhaps the easiest way for young students and anyone else for that matter to experience the M Monochrom would be to go the a Leica Akademie B&W workshop where a full assortment of lens and bodies will await you.
Agreed...but if a monochrom digital camera is going to be the future new norm (in some respects) for the burgenoing student of B&W photography, a model has to be offered thats within the relm of their financial means to obtain one. Like SLR film photography, there is/was dozens of entry level film camera to choice from for their introductory photography clases. Thats how many eventually became Leica rangefinder users. It might be that this sort of introductory monochrom camera might have to come in the form of a lower end DLSR, who's sensor has the bayer filter removed and firmware wrttten to take advantage of this B&W only designed digital SLR. I believe if the appropriate price point could be reached, it might pave the way for a whole new generation of young B&W photographers.Dave-Perhaps the easiest way for young students and anyone else for that matter to experience the M Monochrom would be to go the a Leica Akademie B&W workshop where a full assortment of lens and bodies will await you.
Steven,Now if only Sony, Olympus or Pentax would release a Monochrome camera that would be awsome for the rest of us how can't afford the real deal Leica....
Excellent video BTW... To bad I didn't win the recent 330 million dollar loto
