Description from the seller

LEICA DIGILUX 2 – COLLECTOR AND SALES EXPERTISE

Item:
Leica Digilux 2
Serial number: 3013934
Manufacturing period: approx. 2004–2005
Manufacturer: Leica Camera AG / Panasonic collaboration
Production: Japan

Historical classification:
The Leica Digilux 2 is today regarded as one of the most significant early premium digital cameras. It was the first to consistently combine classic Leica operating philosophy with digital imaging technology. The model was introduced in early 2004 and, among other recognitions, received the award
“DIMA 2004 Digital Camera Shoot-Out Winner.”

Special features:
• Leica DC Vario-Summicron ASPH 1:2.0–2.4 / 7–22.5 mm
• Corresponds to approximately 28–90 mm in 35mm terms
• High-quality CCD sensor with the distinctive “vintage digital look”
• Mechanical aperture ring, focus ring, and zoom ring
• Metal body with classic Leica feel
• RAW support
• Collector-relevant early Leica digital technology

This exemplar:
The shown unit is in complete collector condition with:
• Original box
• Original foam insert
• Leica documentation
• Software CDs
• Lens hood
• Original carrying strap

Original battery and spare battery (the original lacks sufficient capacity, included for completeness) – the camera was tested with the spare battery

The lens is optically clean and well maintained.
The camera has been tested in all functions: trigger, flash, film recording, burst mode, automatic exposure

Overall condition is well preserved and worthy of a collector.
Original price at that time:
Approximately €1,500–€1,900 (2004)

Collector’s appraisal:
Today the Leica Digilux 2 enjoys cult status among collectors and photographers. It is especially valued for the bright Summicron zoom lens, the analog-style operation logic, and the distinctive CCD image look. Complete sets with original packaging are increasingly rare.
