Today, Leica has announced an upcoming price increase going into effect April 1, 2022. Impacting a range of products, the increases are not uniform across the board. The amount will vary on a per-product basis, averaging about 2-5% for most items.
Like many premium manufacturers, Leica has a history of small, incremental price adjustments to keep pace with inflation, currency fluctuation, and the ever rising cost to produce hand-crafted, high-precision cameras and lenses.
The good news is that Leica is giving everyone a couple weeks notice here. If you are interested in purchasing at the current pricing, you can do so while supplies last. At Leica Store Miami, pre-increase pricing will be honored on any in-stock item up until March 31st, 2022.
Below is a breakdown of affected serialized products and their corresponding price increases. Do note that the increase of $100 on the Leica APO-Summicron-M 35mm f/2 ASPH is immediate.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the Leica Specialists at Leica Store Miami by calling (305) 921-4433 or emailing info@leicastoreamiami.com.

Dear RDF,
Thanks for the Warning! Glad I have my M10Monochrom. The SL system shocker is the Lux-SL 50 f1.4 –glad I got a beautiful used copy.
M10M isn’t affected
I was led to believe that the price for the APO 35mm lens, if on order (my order was like three or four months ago) would be honored. Please advise.
