Leica is the epitome of simplicity

Leica is the epitome of simplicity

 

Mention Leica and most photographers immediately think of its exquisitely crafted, old-fashioned M-series rangefinder cameras which have barely changed since the days of film.

But its T-series mirrorless models are about as far removed from that as it’s possible to imagine. They have sleek one-piece bodies painstakingly crafted from a single block of aluminium, with just a few well-chosen physical controls complemented by a large touchscreen that covers most of the camera’s back.

They feel like the kind of cameras Apple might make – stylish, minimalist, but still highly functional.

Leica - no other camera manufacturer is dedicated to focusing on 'Das Wesentliche' - the sheer essentials of photography.

A simple camera has few, if any, controls.
