Leica CL “100 Years of bauhaus” Special Edition is Announced.

Leica CL “100 Years of bauhaus” Special Edition is Announced.

Leica has announced a new special edition and I must admit, it is a lovely looking version of the Leica CL. This one comes with the 18mm pancake lens and a black Leica dot! A strap is also included. This is limited to 150 sets worldwide and comes in at $3,750. A normal edition CL with the 18mm sells for $3195 so this one does come with a premium price of $555 more over the standard version. Those black dots must not come cheap!

You can see my review of the Leica CL HERE.

  1. Cmooon Leica this should been :
    brown synthetic leather with brass top and brass bottom.

  2. Please do not gloss over this point:

    “A strap is also included”

    This is very important as Leica is the only company in the history of photography that includes a camera strap with every camera sold. Quite frankly I am surprised no-one else has thought about this. I don’t care if the Sony A7riii has a 47mp sensor, or the Nikon D850 has a film digitizing mode. No strap, no sale. PERIOD.

  3. After a little more than a year shooting the CL (somewhere north of 1ooo images), I highly recommend this camera. The CL is particularly well suited as a travel camera or as a backup to a Leica SL (CL lenses work perfectly on an SL though the image will only be 11MP vs. 24MP with an SL lens or adapted M lens).
    After several tries with the X family of cameras, Leica has gotten “it” right with the CL.

  4. Why that subscribe notification in the middle of the site? Quite annoying………

    • I do not see it in the middle. It is on the left side if on a computer and at the bottom if on mobile. I am just experimenting with it at this time. Thank you for the feedback.

  5. Black dots are cool–I put one on my M6. But they’re not $555 cool! A “stealth” version would have been better/cooler.
