What size LCD is on the Leica M Typ 262?

The Leica M (Typ 262) features a 3.0-inch rear LCD display, which offers a resolution of 921,000 dots. LCD-size is measured across the diagonal of the screen. Having a large and detailed display on the back is convenient for image review, and settings control. Naturally, the size of the LCD is correlated with the size of the camera, as a bigger camera body will offer more space on the back to place a sizeable rear screen.

In terms of screen handling characteristics, the LCD of the Leica M Typ 262 is not touch sensitive and is fixed to the body.
