Leica Celebrates 60 Years of ‘James Bond’ With the D-Lux 7 007 Edition
As well as a dedicated photography exhibition at its London gallery.
Leica has teamed up with EON Productions for a photography exhibition featuring some of the most iconic James Bond images, in tandem with the special release of their limited D-Lux 7 007 Edition.
From its sophisticated exterior to its high-performance technical specifications, the special edition D-Lux 7 takes on the refinement, discreetness, and readiness for action of the iconic double agent. Subtly adorning the body and hand grip is a repeated rhombus textured pattern, which ensures a firm and safe handling of the high-end compact camera. The signature 007 logo is imprinted onto the top plate, while the legendary gun-barrel design is engraved on the lens cap to emulate the opening sequence of every James Bond films.
When it comes to technicality, the D-Lux 7 007 Edition is integrated with the model’s usual large image sensor and speedy Leica DC Vario-Summilux lens. Accompanying the camera, the specially designed leather case mimics the look of a holster, while adding portability and convenience.
Retailing at €1,990 EUR (approximately $2,113 USD), the D-Lux 7 007 Edition is globally available in-store and online at Leica, as well as its authorized retailers. It’s released in a limited run of 1,962 units to coincide with the year the first James Bond movie, Dr. No premiered.
