Just saw this at Freestyle Photo down in Hollywood.
How come no-one is talking about this?! HUGE NEWS!!!

 
Just tried to Google this ('Leica 120H') and could not turn up anything. What's an 'optical lens'? Is this ready for the market? Price? Something about this seems a little strange to me, but don't know why.

Dunno about you guys but that looks like a Lomo camera with a Leica sticker slapped onto it.

You must be looking at a different picture. The one that loaded on my screen is gonna change medium format photography forever. I already withdrew $5000 and bought a roll of black tape for mine when it becomes available.
 
Last time I was in the Howood it looked like shady area. Well, kind of outscirts, cheap. I'll be not surprised if they sell here same kind of porn I was offered by new Canadians at the gas station North of GTA. Photos in OP feels kind of the same. Thank you, Huss, for doing some PJ. Do they talk Pigeon English at this store?

I hope you bought the Leica branded black tape. It shows the Leica logo, in black, under a black light.
The kamera also comes with a roll of Tri(harder)X

Sounded like stool pigeon English to me.
It all seems on the up and up. I was told it was made in The Leica Factory, but not where that was. Something about divulging information on a need to (not) know basis.
 
Michael Kenna has done a whole book with his Holga he took along with his Hasselblads. The white pigeon on the front cover is magic.

After the Instant Leica why not an MF Holga Leica? We’ve been hearing so much about that 60 f5.6 Distagon Neil Armstrong was showing off on the moon with: now Leica has gone one (stop) better.

$5000? For Leica MF? Surely you're joking.
