Wencheng Zhang Creates the Leica M Reimagined Concept
References: design-milk
Wenchang Zhang is an industrial designer based in Shanghai and his recent creation is the 'Leica M Reimagined concept.' This is a celebration of the Leica M, which is known for its simple yet elevated functions. The Leica cameras only rely on a minimal amount of time to understand, making them very intuitive to work with.
This simplicity makes its way to the Reimagined concept, made using a single block of aluminum alloy. It takes the classic Leica M as the control layout to improve the ergonomics by adding an angled top plate. The concept also has an additional viewfinder and large touch display which is inspired by the M11 counterpart without the three custom function buttons for the sake of minimalism.
