Leica M Monochrom, What’s the big deal?

With a color camera the sensor itself can only detect the intensity of light, but it has a color filter array to allow it to create color images. The process of converting the image to color is called demosaicing - This calculates the color for each pixel based on the color filter, and the results from the surrounding pixels. The color filter array reduces the amount of light reaching the pixels by around 1 stop, and the demosaicing process has an effect on the resolution because of the combining of information.

With a Monochrome camera, you don’t need the color filter array, This means that each pixel gets the maximum amount of light thus improving the high ISO characteristics of the camera and the dynamic range. As there is no demosaicing process there is no loss of resolution - each pixel is represented directly in the final image.

So what’s the big deal? 

Well in short, you get an amazing ISO range, Sharper images, Brilliant Dynamic Range, and almost no Noise even at extreme ISO compared to an M9 or M9-P. This camera will appeal to Black and White shooters who want the feel and look of a Black and White film. Street photographers will love this camera as well as photographers who love to shoot Black and White, and others that simply wish they had one…

I totally had this idea…

so dope
