Leica M11 Monochrom
£8500 · Leica M-mount · The M11 Monochrom is the finest black-and-white camera in the world. A 60MP sensor with no colour filter array produces sharpness and tonal depth no colour camera can match — combined with extended high-ISO performance. Manual focus, no video, and an extraordinary price make it a specialist instrument, but for dedicated B&W photographers it is unmatched.

How this kit is built: lenses are matched to your camera's mount and sensor and scored for your genre on the focal length they give on your body; the first lens is in the total, the others are alternatives. Accessories pass compatibility rules: the right card class for your slot, a battery and grip that fit, filters in your lens's thread, a tripod rated for the kit's weight.
