Leica Partners With GPixel to Break Sony's Sensor Stranglehold

If you've ever wondered why a €10,000 Leica M still shares its sensor DNA with a Sony RX1, this partnership is the answer to that problem. GPixel gives Leica a path to sensors built around their optical philosophy — not Sony's roadmap. For photographers who shoot Leica specifically because it isn't Sony, this is the most significant architectural shift in years, and it's worth watching closely.
