Leica 0-Series Makes History Again, Fetches $8 Million at Auction

Leica 0 Series

Owning a Leica camera is equivalent to buying your first Porsche or Ferrari. But getting a limited edition is no easier than working with a Rolls-Royce. That's because the device is engineered to perfection, an item of luxury, a legacy and a tradition.

So, imagine what it must feel like to hold the Leica I prototypes, the first true 35mm cameras today, which reflect the history of not just the company but the medium itself. Now that you understand this, we are here to reveal the results of Leica's Leitz Photographica Auction, which took place on June 27. The results were staggering but not entirely unpredictable. . thephoblographer.com

Review: The Leica SL2-S is Not Perfect, But It’s Perfect For Me

The idea of a Leica camera with image stabilization, a built-in EVF, Wi-Fi, 2 card slots, and endless more features may seem like a very foreign concept for legacy Leica shooters. However, this is exactly what Leica has made in the SL2-S. petapixel.com »

Review: Leica Q2 (Almost a Perfect Camera, But Still Not There)

When I first got the Leica Q2 in my hands, I really wondered if Leica had created a perfect full frame point and shoot. And in some ways, I think that they did; but in other ways I believe that it wasn't thought out fully despite the big deal of it being given some of the best weather sealing on the market. thephoblographer.com »

Review: Leica TL2 (The Camera I Never Thought I’d Like)

When the Leica TL2 was offered to me for review, I was a bit on the fence about it. Though I had only spent brief periods of time with it in the past, I genuinely thought of it as something like the Canon Rebel of mirrorless cameras in the Leica lineup. thephoblographer.com »

Review: Leica CL Digital (Starring the New Leica 18mm f2.8)

The Leica CL digital is a camera that I've been waiting for for a while; let's say almost 10 years now. But if you rewinded back to the technology world 10 years ago, you saw that mirrorless cameras weren't even a thing yet, and the Leica M9 hadn't even launched. thephoblographer.com »

Hot mess: Remembering the Leica M8

The M8 was Leica's first digital rangefinder. Smooth, sleek, but distinctly rough around the edges, it nevertheless laid down the basic pattern for the cameras that came after it, while remaining true to its film roots. dpreview.com »
