Leica M8 breaks the digital barrier

Old-school design meets digital age, that's the new Leica M8 professional digital camera. Featuring 10.3-megapixel sensor, a 2.5-inch LCD monitor, and exterior of a classic film camera from the blessed 70s when rock was still hard, the M8 carries a price stick that can blow an enormous hole in your family budget. The new Leica M8 costs mind-numbing $5,000.





Probably, a generous part of that sum will be paid for Leica's badge alone, but otherwise the price seems completely justified for you'll get 1/8000 shutter speed, 4GB internal storage and the magnesium alloy compact body. Value for money, right.
