Leica S2

Leica S2 åpner en egen nisje i kameramarkedet, og det kommer nok til å bli et flott kamera. Det er bygd rundt en sensor med 37.5 megapiksler med en størrelse på 30 x 45 millimeter. Dette gir en flate som er 56% større en fullformat.

Men du får utsette bilkjøpet noen år dersom du vil ha en slik. Du må i alle fall klaske nærmere
160.000 kroner i bordet
(£15,996) dersom du vil være en av dem som mottar et kamera i oktober.

Oppdatering 11.08.09: I Norge blir prisen intet mindre enn 180.000 for S2 og 215.000,- for S2 Professional. S2 Professional inkluderer en servicepakke med en garanti som noen nok vil være villige til å betale for: Hvis det skulle oppstå en feilen feil, vil eieren garantert få nytt kamera innen 24 timer, forutsatt at det er praktisk mulig.

Prisene er inklusive moms, men selvsagt før du har begynt å kjøpe optikk...

Leica kommer også med nye M-objektiver:

Noctilux 50mm 0.95: 75.010 inkludert moms
Summilux 24mm 1.4: 50.269 inkludert moms
Summilux 21mm 1.4: 50.269 inkludert moms

Leica Press Release

Leica has published the suggested retail prices for its new Leica S-System and confirmed October 2009 as the first month for UK availability. The S-System, which sits at the very top end of the digital photography spectrum, will be offered at a very competitive starting price of £15,996 (SRP, body only).

The Leica S-System has been well documented since its launch at Photokina in 2008, and now the release of pricing and availability information brings the world’s high end photo community another important step closer to one of the most significant photo developments in the digital era.

Leica has also confirmed that it will be marketing a series of specialised camera and lens user support/service packages for the S-System and further details will be released soon.

Jon Sareen, UK commercial manager, Leica S-System, commented, “The eagerly-anticipated Leica S-System is a very new and different challenge for Leica Camera Ltd, in comparison to other products in our range. We have engaged new experts, and arrangements regarding leasing and rental facilities are well under way. Service and support will be very hot topics for Leica S-System users, and we can confirm that we are planning a rapid third party UK solution, to work in conjunction with our head office in Germany.”

First announced in September last year, the Leica S-System redefines the professional DSLR class with a custom 37.5-megapixel, 30 x 45 mm sensor built into a 35mm-sized body.
