Did Leica forget to official announce this Leica M8 “Panda” special edition or am I missing something? Shouldn’t they try to make some noise when they have a new product? Weird. Anyway, the rumor that we reported earlier came out to be true. My job is done. Thanks to the readers that contributed to this story.

The actress Jessica Lang just released her new book “50 Photographs”. The book contains pictures taken from the past 15 years, mainly while she was traveling for different projects. The camera used – Leica M6. Here are some pictures from the book:
“When Leica meets FIJI Water, the combination introduces a new concept of quality life style. When photographer shoot on-site, having an excellent camera like Leica M8.2 is not enough, staying hydrated is also an essence. Hydration not only influences the photographer’s body and mind, but it also plays an important part in the outcome of the photograph. When dehydrated, the skin of the model would be dry and coarse, and fail to contribute to the photograph. At this moment, if there were a bottle of FIJI Water at hand, with its high profile of minerals, the dehydration problem would be solved in no time. FIJI Water has a high profile of silica, hence the soft, smooth taste, letting you stay hydrated throughout the photo shoot.”
What? Is this Leica’s new marketing strategy? Wow, I am sure they will sell a lot of cameras that way…
