The new finish will be available for the Leica M11-P, Leica Q3 and Leica D-Lux 8 cameras, as well as the Leica APO-Summicron-M 50 f/2 ASPH. M-Lens. Leica is also introducing accessories for the three camera lines, including protectors, carrying straps, a camera case and a wrist strap.
Metallic grey comes to the M-System first
The Leica M11-P is the first M-Camera to receive the new metallic grey finish. The camera pairs a full-metal body in metallic grey with black control elements and diamond-patterned leather, keeping the M-System’s familiar design language while adding a new colour option.
Like other M-Cameras, the metallic grey Leica M11-P is Made in Germany and precision-engineered in Wetzlar. The Leica APO-Summicron-M 50 f/2 ASPH. is also available in metallic grey to match the camera. Its lens elements and front cap carry the new finish, while the feet and f-stop scales use red engraving.
Leica has also introduced accessories for the M11-P, including a metallic grey BP-SCL7 battery, a dark brown leather protector, and a dark brown leather carrying strap with a shoulder pad for M- and Q-Cameras. A black leather multifunctional protector is available for M11 cameras, combining a protector with a handgrip. Its base plate supports the ARCA-SWISS coupling system, allowing it to be attached to compatible tripods without additional tools.
Q3 and D-Lux 8 arrive in July
The Leica Q3 compact full-frame camera will be available in metallic grey from 16 July. The new version uses black control elements and red engraving on the feet and f-stop scales of the lens. It is based on the same technology as the standard Leica Q3.
The D-Lux 8 will also be available in metallic grey from 16 July. Its camera body and FN buttons are finished in metallic grey, while the other controls and dials stand against a black background. The compact camera uses a DC Vario-Summilux 10.9–34 f/1.7–2.8 ASPH. zoom lens.
For the D-Lux 8, Leica has added a cognac leather camera case alongside the existing black leather version. The accessory range also includes braided black leather carrying straps and a braided black leather wrist strap.
