You have to go all the way back to 1954 to get to the beginning of this legendary series of Leica cameras and lenses, with the introduction of the M3: a Leica rangefinder body with a bayonet interchangeable lens mount . For almost 50 yrs, it remained untouched. And why mess with perfection? Many fans regard the M platform as the purest photographic tool available on the market. In 2007, we stood at yet another moment in M-history, with the release of the m8 – the first digital M series. The rugged, minimalist, utilitarian retro charm was kept and feature a custom designed 10 megapixel CCD sensor. While the Special Edition, all white Leica M8 will have the same insides as the regular edition, collectors will be drooling when they see the design. Included with stunning white body is a silver 28mm Elmarit-M ASPH lens, a white strap and an E39 UV/IR filter. Limited to only 275 units, this Leica will be scooped up very quickly, in fact I think they’ve already sold out.
