Here is another list of expected Leica products that will be announced next week during the 2014 Photokina show (very similar to what I have already posted earlier):
Outside of the expected new M-P Type 240 ….. you can look forward to
- a new M-A Type 127 Analog that super cedes the current MP film camera. Seems it will be minus the light meter and requires no battery at all – asking ONLY 5,700 AUD:-D
- a special edition of the Type 240 full stainless steel exterior – only 600 available – spare 22,000 AUD anyone?
- what I thought is a most interesting update to the D-Lux6 in the new 12.8 MP D=Lux Type 109that will sport a big 4/3 sensor, a high res 2.8 MP OLED EVF, features focus peaking plus WAIT FOR THIS 4k VIDEO and ISO up to 25,000 … asking just under 1,500 AUD
- couple of updates to the X Vario family
- the M system also sees a new 50 Noctilux, asking a mere 14,000 AUD and 35 Summilux for spare change of 6,500 AUD both in silver only
- updates to the range of summarit lenses – slightly faster aperture, improved close focus and an ASPH for the 35mm
- and throw in a new entry level S system for barely any change out of 20,000 AUD plus a super duper S with 4k video capability with GPS and WiFi – if you have to ask the price, you can’t afford this one
