Basically, mirrorless is simply referring to a viewfinder system that employs an electronic viewfinder instead of a conventional SLR type viewfinder, therefore, mirrorless. All other features are unrelated. That makes the Leica M one of the most sophisticated mirrorless cameras on the market.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-61697361497678087552018-04-24T12:45:39.329-05:002018-04-24T12:45:39.329-05:00But the Leica M does not offer autofocus.

There are certainly mirrorless cameras without interchangeable lenses, like the Leica Digilux 2. By your definition, the Leica M is definitely a mirrorless camera. It offers all the aspects mentioned in your response, and, in addition, it has also a rangefinder.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-87284431005073570482018-04-24T12:44:15.750-05:002018-04-24T12:44:15.750-05:00A mnirrorless camera is a camera with interchangea...A mnirrorless camera is a camera with interchangeable lenses and an electronic viewfinder.
