Leica Camera AG writes the next chapter in the success story of the coveted olive-green special edition

TEANECK, N.J., May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Leica Camera AG presents the newest member of the M11 family, the Leica M11-P Safari. With this launch, the company is continuing its long tradition of the Leica Safari Editions, which have stood out since the 1970’s thanks to their olive-green color scheme. Subtle design features emphasize the special edition’s exclusive aesthetics.

The distinctive color scheme imbues the Leica Safari’s design with its unmistakable character. Notably, the elaborately constructed camera top plate made of solid brass has been given a durable paint finish in matte olive-green. The olive-green finish of the leatherette covering creates perfect color coordination, while also ensuring exceptional grip.

The silver controls and dials on the camera top plate and front strike a stunning contrast. The red Leica logo has also been deliberately omitted and replaced with a subtle silver screw. The back of the camera is equipped with controls in stylish black. Further distinguishing features, such as the engraved signature Leica script, as well as the “Leica Camera AG” and “Wetzlar Germany” lettering, round off the exceptional design of the Leica M11-P Safari.

The new special edition corresponds to the Leica M11-P with regards to performance and technical specifications. It also pulls off the same extraordinary technological feats as the base Leica M11-P model: equipped with Content Credentials technology, the M11-P Safari can sign every image with tamper-proof metadata, such as the camera model and copyright information, as well as file creation dates and editing changes, if desired.  Its internal 256 GB memory and optional UHS-II card slot allows creatives to capture in DNG and JPG formats, while the LCD panel which is made of scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and features an anti-reflective coating, allows for full control even in challenging visibility conditions. Extremely brilliant images that are rich in contrast and details are provided by the high-performance BSI CMOS full-frame sensor with Triple Resolution Technology, which enables a choice of image resolutions from the options of 60, 36 or 18 megapixels. Thanks to seamless connectivity via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or cable, the camera can be quickly and conveniently connected with the Leica FOTOS App. Bluetooth Low Energy allows photos to be transmitted in the background in a way that is both quick and energy efficient.

Leica M-Cameras have been synonymous with precision craftsmanship, uncompromising quality and timeless understatement for over 70 years. The Leica M11-P Safari is the perfect choice for anyone who particularly values exclusivity, aesthetics and style. The special edition is supplied together with a black carrying strap by Leica, which is packaged in sustainable material. The high-quality boxes do not contain any plastic at all and are also produced in Germany.

The Leica M11-P Safari is now available worldwide at all Leica Stores, the Leica Online Store and from authorized dealers. The camera is priced at $10,495.00
