An interesting story: After 71 years Leica just announced their first M-mount camera ever without the rangefinder system! The new Leica M EV1 uses a new 5.76 million dot EVF instead. It keeps using the same Sony 61MP sensor of the M11.
I think this camera will sell hot. What are your thoughts?

Even top-tier cameras can’t always prevent high ISO noise, slight focus misses, or minor motion blur. The real question isn’t whether AI can fix these issues—it’s whether it can do so naturally, without leaving that over-processed “AI look.”
For those who want a simple, realistic workflow, Aiarty Image Enhancer has been quietly gaining attention. It reduces noise, restores fine details, and upscales images while preserving textures and tones — all offline and hassle-free.
Lifetime License — Own It, Not Rent It
For a limited time, Aiarty offers a Lifetime License for $79 (49% off), lowest price ever. It works on up to three PCs or Macs, includes all future updates, and comes with a 30-day refund policy. No subscriptions, no recurring fees—own it forever, ready whenever you need it.

Smart Denoise — Clean, Not Plastic
Photographers who shoot concerts, wildlife, or street scenes know how tricky high ISO cleanup can be. Aiarty’s Smart Denoise separates random sensor noise from actual image detail —so you get clean results without flattening your photos. It keeps:
Even in ISO 6400+ or dimly lit scenes, the results stay clean and realistic — no weird “generated” patterns in dark areas, and no loss of micro contrast.

Natural Sharpening — Fix Soft Shots
Minor focus errors, motion blur, or slight camera shake don’t have to ruin a shot. Aiarty applies edge-aware sharpening and micro-contrast restoration to bring back natural clarity without halos or digital harshness. The result feels like lens-focused sharpness, not an artificial digital enhancement.

Tailored AI Models for Every Photo Type
Not every photo benefits from the same model. Aiarty includes five specialized AI models, so you can match the output to the subject. For example:
Beyond its AI models, Aiarty also supports batch processing, letting you enhance multiple photos — JPEGs, PNGs, or RAWs — in one go, perfect for event shoots or large archives.

Enhance Old Photos with AI Face Restoration
When enhancing portraits or old photos, Aiarty avoids the “AI face” effect that can look unnatural. It subtly refines details while maintaining authentic expression, skin tone, and texture.
Choose between two refinement modes:
Old family photo enhanced with balanced face restoration.
Upscale to 32K for Prints & Crops
Whether you’re aiming for large prints, heavy crop retains, or future-proofing your files, Aiarty can upscale images up to 8× their original size (supporting 4K, 8K and even 16K/32K workflows) and maintain fidelity of detail. Even compressed JPEGs regain lost detail and texture, making them print-ready again.
Final Thought
AI enhancement should bring out the true quality of your photos — not change them. Aiarty Image Enhancer restores clean detail and delivers realistic results without the heavy AI look. It’s ready for print, web, or client delivery in seconds and improves your workflow without altering your style.
For those interested, the Lifetime License is now available for $79 (49% off; details here) and works on up to three computers, including all future updates.
