Camera brand Leica has released the D-Lux 7 007 Edition movie-inspired camera as a tribute to the 60th anniversary of the iconic movie, James Bond. The camera was first shown after Leica teamed up with EON Productions for a photography exhibition that featured several iconic James Bond images. The body and strap are a repeated rhombus textured pattern that allows firm handling of the camera. In addition, the gun-barrel design is engraved on the lens cap and the signature 007 logo is imprinted onto the top plate. There is also a leather case that is styled like a gun holster.
In terms of the technical specs of this camera, it has a four-thirds MOS sensor along with a Leica DC 24-75mm lens in F1.7-2.8. The camera also has an optical image stabilizer and can shoot 24p / 30p 4K video. Additionally, it has an electronic viewfinder and a large 3-inch touch-sensitive monitor. The exclusive camera is currently available and is priced at $1,990 EUR. It is limited in stock with only 1,962 units available, which follows the year the first James Bond movie premiered.
