Leica cameras have been on the frontlines of history. The M-series has long been favored by photojournalists and been used to capture iconic imagery across the decades. Continuing the tradition of the series is the Leica M11-P. This model takes the contemporary tech and classic design first seen in the M11 and makes some key improvements. It also becomes the world's first camera to feature Content Authenticity Initiative technology with the aim of bringing authenticity back to digital storytelling.
Professional Upgrades
Leica has consistently developed "P" models of their cameras with tweaks that make them better suited to professionals and photojournalists. The M11-P continues that tradition with an iconic design that eschews the red dot logo for a more discrete profile. It also comes with a few other enhancements:
- Unobstrusive no logo design and dark chrome viewfinder.
- Engraved Leica script on the top cover plate.
- An increase of internal storage to 256GB.
- Sapphire cover glass for rear touchscreen LCD.
Leica Content Credentials with Content Authenticity Initiative Technology
The M11-P is the world's first camera to feature Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) technology. The Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) is a collaborative effort initiated by Adobe in partnership with various other organizations, including The New York Times and Leica. Its primary goal is to develop a standard for digital content attribution.
In the M11-P, this technology shows up as Leica Content Credentials. By using a secure processing chip, the camera will encrypt image metadata at the point of capture. This information can then be independently verified and even appended to when using compatible applications, such as Adobe Photoshop. Viewers can then verify the provenance of the image and confirm the veracity of the image. The aim is to give viewers more confidence in the images they are looking at and provide creators with another way to maintain credits.
