First sent to market in 1973, the Leica CL was a substantial departure from from its Leica predecessors. The body of the Leica CL is not at all what the M2, M3, or M4 looked like. The proportions of those bodies are unmistakably Leica, whereas the CL is much smaller. The shutter speed dial was moved from the top of the camera to the front and it incorporated the film speed setting for the internal light meter. The rewind crank for the CL was moved to the bottom of the camera body. All of this allowed the CL's body to be reduced to a size that easily fits in a pocket or handbag while still using Leica M-mount lenses.
