Leica Camera will soon announce Leica Monopan 50 – a new black and white 35mm film from Leica. Here are the details – stay tuned for updates:
INTRODUCING LEICA MONOPAN 50 The new black and white 35mm film from Leica.
The Leica I revolutionized photography with its introduction in 1925 and defined the 35mm format as the new standard. The compact format quickly gained popularity at the time – and although the 35mm film cassettes used with the Leica I came from manufacturers such as Kodak, Agfa, and Perutz, dealers and photographers colloquially referred to them simply as “Leica Film.” To mark the centenary of the Leica I and as a tribute to 35mm photography, Leica Camera AG is now introducing a genuine Leica 35mm film for the first time: the MONOPAN 50 black and white film for 36 exposures
Leica MONOPAN 50 Black-and-white 35mm film with ultra-fine grain and super-
panchromatic sensitisation. ISO 50 makes it suitable for shooting with wide-open
apertures—even in daylight— when using Noctilux-M, Summilux-M, or Summicron-M
lenses.
