The new Leica M10-R black paint finish.

A TIMELESS WITNESS OF LIGHT

Good design sets a product apart! It harmonizes function, form and material. Transforms complexity into simplicity and elegance. And can be timeless yet with its own distinct identity. The Leica M camera—manufactured in Wetzlar, Germany—is just such a product with just such a design.

The Leica-M’s latest design variant features a glossy black finish which after years of use reveals the brass at the corners and edges. This inimitable patina further emphasizes the camera’s individual character. And tells its own personal story. 

A fascination with photography: for more than 100 years

Its quite fascinating…to be able to capture a moment, shape it, immortalize it…so that a unique image may be experienced for eternity. Roughly 100 years ago, Oskar Barnack had a groundbreaking idea that would change photography forever. He developed an 35mm camera able to capture 24 x 36 mm frames: the original Leica. Small, robust, and easy to operate, it paved the way for photography as we know it today.

For over a century, famous photographers from all over the world—the likes of Henri Cartier Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, Steve McCurry and many more—have preserved unique moments with their Leica cameras.

Whether used professionally, artistically, or simply for documenting life, all Leica cameras have one thing in common: They enable photographers to focus on what is most important—the perfect picture.

And its precisely with this in mind that Leica Camera AG develops cameras. All made from the best materials and still to this day assembled by hand for guaranteed reliability and value a lifetime long.

Leica always focuses on the sustainability of its products. So even today, lenses from the 1950s can still be used on the latest Leica M-cameras. Leica’s precision optical tools are timeless companions with impeccable quality and longevity guaranteed.
