The code name “8854” could be for a new Leica T camera



A new Leica camera under the code name “8854” was already registered at the Indonesian Communication Agency and was recently also spotted at the Taiwan Radio Certification Authority (NCC).

The interesting part in the second listing is that the new camera will use the Leica BP-DC13 battery and the Leica BC-DC13 battery charger – both are currently used by the Leica T Typ 701 camera. This is a pretty good indication that a new T model will most likely be announced at Photokina in September. The price of the Leica T Typ 701 is reduced to $1,099 which is another indication for an upcoming replacement.

The Leica T was originally announced back in April, 2014.
