Each camera will be introduced just in 100 colors and each of the cameras is expected to come in a special chronological serial number between 200/200 and 001/200.
On the feature front, the beautiful camera comes subsumed with wide-angle lens, a Leica SUMMILUX-M 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH, a LEICAVIT M rapid winder, matching round lens hood as well as a leather carrying strap, which matches with camera’s and boasts of a silk-lined, linen-covered box.
As tis reviews, the top plate also comes carved with the name of Leica in traditional script. Besides, the particular shade of the camera’s leather swaps 7 settings on the shutter speed dial and the red color of the imprinted auto.
The Leica M7 Edition Hermes is available to purchase from authorized dealers of Leica and the Leica Store Mayfairstores in the UK, slated to take place during December 2009. As to its pricing, the exclusive camera comes with the price tag of around 8500 Pounds.
