Leica M (Typ 240) Edition "Leica 60"

The Leica M (Typ 240) Edition "Leica 60" was introduced in 2014. This camera is based on the Leica M (Typ 240), but it has a denser feel due to its solid, milled stainless steel construction³⁰².

The camera was produced in collaboration with Audi and features a unique textured, embossed gray leather cladding and all-stainless steel control elements³⁰². One of its most distinctive characteristics is the absence of a rear LCD³⁰². In place of additional controls, only the essentials remain: a power switch with single advance, a top shutter speed dial, a function button on the top deck for checking remaining battery and SD card capacity, and a stylish ISO dial on the rear³⁰².

The camera lacks strap lugs, so a leather and stainless steel camera protector with a carrying strap is included instead³⁰². The frame lines are LED illuminated, but only in red, and the camera is limited to shooting in uncompressed DNG format³⁰².

The bottom plate is clean, with no externally visible catch³⁰². It comes with a stainless steel 35mm Summilux ASPH FLE lens. Only 600 units were produced, making it a limited edition. The price is 18500 USD³⁰².

Stainless steel was used for the visible metal parts of the camera and lens³⁵⁷. The back of the top plate was engraved with "Leica 60" and "Leica Camera Wetzlar"³⁵⁷.
