Description from the seller
Beautiful Leica M8 – Black – Excellent condition – including RRS grip & accessories
Description:
Are you looking for that unique, analog 'look' in a digital body? I proudly offer this very neat and fully functional Leica M8. This camera is an icon among enthusiasts and is known for its legendary image quality, which, thanks to the special sensor, comes closer to film than almost any other digital camera.
The unique Leica M8 experience
The M8 is equipped with a CCD sensor (without a low-pass filter). This results in unprecedented sharpness and color reproduction that experts describe as 'organic' and 'film-like.' Especially in black-and-white photography, this sensor produces results that resemble the contrast and tonal qualities of classic Leica M film systems. It is the perfect entry into the world of digital rangefinder photography.
Camera status
This specimen is in remarkably good condition with only minimal signs of use. The camera is fully functional: the rangefinder is clear and accurate, all buttons respond perfectly, and the LCD screen is in good condition. Great care has been taken in handling this device.
Including high-quality accessories: The camera has firmware 2.014 (the most recent firmware for M8; June 22, 2011) with support for the Leica Super-Elmar-M 21mm/f3.4 lens and optimized internal processes.
This set includes not only the camera but also a number of essential extras that make photography more enjoyable.
Really Right Stuff (RRS) hand grip: This high-quality grip significantly improves ergonomics, making the camera more stable and more comfortable to hold (highly popular among Leica users).
Original Leica body plate: For those who want to use the camera in its original, slim form.
3 vhbw batteries: so you can photograph all day without worry.
Original Leica Charger: For safe and reliable charging.
Original Leica lens mount cap for protecting the sensor when no lens is mounted.
The object is for demonstration purposes only and is not part of the sale.
A Leica M8 in this condition and with these extras is becoming increasingly rare. It is not only a fantastic tool for serious photographers but also a smart investment due to the value stability of the Leica brand.
