The Leica was introduced in 1956. It has a combination rangefinder and viewfinder in one eyepiece with a bright image. The rangefinder works by bringing a double image into a single one. The viewfinder has parallax compensation and shows the 50mm,90mm, and 135mm frames when the lens is mounted.
The film is transported by a rapid wind lever in 1 stroke. The film counter resets to 0 automatically when the take-up spool is removed while loading the film.
Unlike the Leica III Series, the shutter speeds are on one dial; neither the shutter speed dial nor the rewind knob rotates when advancing the film.
The M series Cameras take a quick-change bayonet lens mount and will accept the Leica screw mount lenses by using an M-Bayonet Adopter Ring.
