When we look at the specs of the current limited Leica M Edition 60 features a 24-megapixel full-frame sensor with a maximum ISO sensitivity of 6400 and a maximum shutter speed of 1/4000th of a second.

The full-frame rangefinder camera designed with an emphasis on the four basic elements of photography: shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and focus.

The new Leica M-D will be a mass-production version of the M Edition 60 so the specs above makes sense for the upcoming model. On the other hand the M Edition 60 has price tag around $16,000. The M-D version should be much more cheaper.
