MY FAVORITE PHOTOGRAPHY IS BLACK AND WHITE, AND MY FAVORITE CAMERA IS LEICA, SO YOU KNOW IM ALL OVER THIS
Do you love black and white photography? Then feast your eyes on the Leica M Monochrom Camera ($8,000). Billed as “the world’s first digital camera exclusively for full-frame, 35mm black-and-white photography,” the Monochrom features an 18 megapixel CCD that records true luminance values — in other words, it doesn’t “see” colors — as well as a rugged, rangefinder-style build, ISO up to 10,000, a 2.5-inch LCD, a maximum shutter speed of 1/4000 sec, SD/SDHC storage, and compatibility with the full range of Leica M lenses.
