First camera in the world with built-in cryptographic image provenance — a milestone in photographic authenticity.

The M11-P follows the classic "P" recipe — no red dot, discreet top-plate engraving, sapphire crystal LCD — but its real headline is invisible: it was the first production camera in the world to implement Content Credentials, the C2PA standard for cryptographically signed image provenance. Every photo can carry a tamper-evident record of when and how it was made.

In an era of AI-generated imagery, the camera industry's answer to "can we trust this photo?" started here. Photojournalists and wire agencies drove the requirement, and Leica — the brand most associated with reportage history — shipped it first.
