What IS it?
It’s the Leica M10 with Zeiss 15mm and optical finder- lens is totally rectilinear.

The Voigtlander 15mm rectilinear is a great lens also imho.
So with dial prices hiking up evermore, internal completion about film with my daughter 😀, I broke down and bought a digital M.
Had to save a bit but I now can use all my Leica M, LTM and Zeiss (pre, postwar and modern)again.
It took some time for all the settings to comprehend, more like what do I need And what not, but now it kind of works. The light metering is still a bit of a challenge as my ZI did such a great job.
Congrats and welcome! I find the Leica UI to be among the best out there (Hassy is the best) but it takes a little bit for your brain to decompress from the multi-layered stack of useless shit Nikon and Sony have to the fairly streamlined menus on Leica.
As for exposure, I leave it on manual and expose for highlights- shadow retrieval is excellent in the newer M’s (M10-R and M11), and if shooting aperture priority, I do EV -1/3 in bright daylight and that tends to keep the highlights in check.
