BAPE, STASH, and Leica are the latest trio to join forces as they deliver a limited-edition camera that draws all of the design language and expertise together. It features the vintage design of a Leica camera and is decorated with elements true to the street style of BAPE and the graffiti art of STASH.
The camera boasts a compact design and takes the Leica D-Lux 7 as the base of the gadget. It is then detailed with a large 17-megapixel sensor and fast lens. Additional features include the 24-75 mm equivalent zoom range which can shoot up to 4K videos at the speed of 30 fps and full HS videos at 60 fps. Leica describes the camera as having a “discreet appearance and the optical stabilization of the lens make it especially suited for street and reportage photography.”
