Leica Camera unveiled a special edition iteration of its well-loved Sofort instant film camera, dubbed the Leica Sofort 'LimoLand by Jean Pigozzi,' which as its name suggests, was designed in collaboration with the French-Italian artist Jean Pigozzi.
The camera's facade features the iconic graphic signature of Pigozzi, which is both eccentric and vibrant. In addition to the design, this instant camera also comes equipped with a matching red shoulder strap that boats Leica's logo. The device maintains all the technical features of the original camera, including pre-set modes, multiple exposure capabilities, a self-timer, and flash options.
This visually pleasing device would appeal to both lovers of art, and fans of the famed artist that the device features.
