Nowadays, the monitor screen on a digital camera is the most popular way of looking at the world around us. Often unnoticed by users, this can result in alienation from the subject, as it is the artificial image of the subject that they look at, not the subject itself. Things are very different with the LEICA MP. The act of taking a photograph becomes the vivid and direct experience it originally was, making rangefinder photography a new, exciting and sensual experience in our world of digital imagery. Both optically and technically, the Leica MP has been reduced to what is absolutely essential. As a purely mechanical alternative to the LEICA M7, which with its electronically controlled shutter and aperture priority mode offers greater convenience and more features, the LEICA MP is intuitive to operate and leaves all decisions and settings to the photographer. It is the very essence of precision mechanics, and its development and production are the result of nearly 75 years of experience in manufacturing mechanical rangefinder cameras. This masterpiece opens up a world of memorable experiences from the moment you pick it up. It offers more than just a short-term thrill this is a camera for a lifetime. THIS ITEM IS SPECIAL ORDER ONLY
