sunshine51 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I guess not being entirely satisfied with their new M-A manual film camera release Leica have decided to....well...turn up the heat once more. The new Leica S (type 007) complete with 4k video and a weather sealed body....here we go again friends... http://petapixel.com/2014/09/16/leica-improves-its-s-series-lineup-with-two-new-bodies-and-summicron-100mm-f2/ It will be released in Spring 2015 & will cost....get ready for it...$25,400...body only. But you do get a huge sensor @ 37.5MP, Leica's Maestro II image processor and 4K video capability @ 60 FPS in 4:2:2 colour! Plus you get that visible from Mars red Leica meatball too! Let's all not run out and jam up the nearest Leica Store OK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klauskunkel Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I am very grateful for the Parallel Universes Theory. In one of them I do own that Leica... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshine51 Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) I am waiting for the "Hello Kitty" collector's edition. FR...you may have to wait for the Hello Kitty version because as of this moment only third party conversions of older M-3's & M-6's are available in the Hello Kitty configuration. That said Leica Camera AG has been weighing the idea of doing factory conversions themselves; it's a Leica Marketing Division idea I have been informed. Mind you I do see a benefit to owning a Leica Hello Kitty camera....you would never have to be concerned with some bad guy stealing it! I mean...it has to take huge brass gonads to walk around taking pix with one of these around ones neck....see below... HK M3... HK M6...Body only...
