I have the pleasure of testing and passing the best cameras in the Tom Guide (and privileges). It often doesn’t happen that a camera descends at my desk and I immediately. I am impressed by its design and features-but Likika M11-D is such a camera.
I spent two weeks in the test and Boy Did he examine my patience and my abilities as a photographer! And at the end of the testing period, I turned out to be a better photographer.
Why, do you ask? Because the M11-D forces you to trust your instincts. It kicked the old school style by eliminating modern touch screens and auto -focus. And there is also no highly detailed optical or electronic view Finder. M11-D is a range Finder camera, which means to get the perfect shot you need to bring two pictures to you.

Of course, you are paying a premium for M11-D-to be in line, 10,555 / £ 8,100. So does this camera make it so expensive? Red Dot, for starters, but it is full of other goods that have established a class in addition to the choice of Sony, Canon, Military Film, etc. M11D has improved my abilities as a photographer, and now, allow me to tell you how and why.
Pin Point precision
As I said earlier, Lika M11-D is a range Finder camera, so what does that mean? I describe this in my review in detail but briefly: Instead of View Finder, shows a picture that passes through the lens, the range Finder shows a picture that comes through the Optical View Finder window.
A small second window in front of the camera offers another small image (‘Foxing Patch’) in the Wave Finder.

To focus, align both images to capture a sharp, focus image. It requires some trials and mistakes, but the resulting images are ridiculous sharp, and the camera lets you pay you very clearly on your basic topic, as you can see in the gallery above.
The first picture of Swan and Duck is one of the best I have ever – the exact focus makes Swann pop and, if I say it myself, this recipe is beautiful.
Other photos speak themselves. You also have 60.3MP, and the Lika teacher III processor at work. When the two work together, the M11-D produces sharp images that eliminate sophisticated and luxury in a way.

You know that when you use a movie camera, you can’t see the photo until you develop them? Like M11-D is somewhat like this. It is expected to provide analog shooting experience thanks to less design than its screen.
You can’t see after taking pictures on the camera-you should use the Lika Photos smartphone app or plug M11-D into a laptop.
This means that if you get a shot immediately. If you do not test your phone later, you can lose the opportunity to take it again. And I think this is a huge sale of this camera.
It negates any disturbance, at this moment just except you, the camera and your article. After using the camera for a while, I began to tilt more on my instincts, and I tried more to get the perfect shot.

Since you need to take your time to shot, M11-D is perfect for architecture and portrait photography, and its 4.5 FPS mechanical shutter is quite fast for slow photography. I was able to take some beautiful pictures of laughter and ducks slowly, but I wouldn’t recommend using it to fly or make a bird picture in Sketchish animals.

I have enjoyed using M11-D. In a fast -paced world where we are always working for the perfect shot to share social media, it has slowed me. It has forced me to estimate my surroundings, gauge where the best light is coming and the right angle.
In this article, every shot and my review was carefully thought and consisted of. I was never in a rush to finish the M11-D test, or did not keep it back in my bag. I wanted to take more pictures, even when it started raining cats and dogs. This is a beautiful camera, I think, everyone should try at least once.
