[Roma]

I just happened to know some folks whose fur and bling-bling it will compliment

Was that pic posted six days ago? That would explain a lot ...

Doomsday M8

Doomsday M8

That was a special M8 that somehow got lost. I think it was on special order from either the Pentagon or White House. It is white to reflect the heat from a nuclear blast. If you take the camera apart, it is also shielded against EMP!!! It ended up here because the Obama Administration is making budget cuts due to the economic crisis. This item will be HIGHLY collectable. I agree that it is BUTT UGLY!!!

Even Col. Sanders would be too chicken to carry that ugly thing around.

Finally a Leica that dentists can bring to work without fear of clashing with the decor.

Now that is funny!!!

Leica must be dead.

That is the Ghost.

Special Cold Snow version, that is; and it looks like a Pentax now 🙂
Indeed if this is true it would be the beginning of the end.

It's the art and craft model.
Your kids will do the painting.

Of course, it needs the matching A& A case and billingham bag

Agreed, it is pathetic that Leica is so out of touch that they can't even come up with unique bad ideas.

I had a Nikon F when I was 15, and I had to scheme and trade a long time to get it.

Why not give this this Miley Cyrus credit for being interested in a "classic" camera, and being interested in photography?

She may very well be talented and a good photographer. Let her have whatever camera appeals to her.

As for the white M8, it probably comes with a matching iPod.

My M3 had a white lizard-skin covering. It matched well with my white suit, white cowboy hat, and white Cadillac convertible.

Unfortunately, I had a few issues with it - the main one being that it was hard to keep clean. So at the moment, its getting repainted at Rangefinder Restorations.

I'd recommend that anybody buying this special edition M8.2 carry a small bottle of hand sanitizer with them.

 

[bolohead]

Is it dishwasher safe?

 

[crawdiddy]

Just imagine how it looks once it gets the Panda treatment.

 

[CameraQuest]

No details yet, but here's the beauty shot...

Is this a joke?

Surely Leica would not introduce a white soon to be grey and grimy white body camera.

the pat boone special...(dating myself?)

I was thinking of Cream's "In The White Room"...

 

[CK Dexter Haven]

I'd never buy one, but i don't think it's "ugly." Looks better than the Safaris and Pandas.
Looks, though, like there might be an APPLE logo on the back.

...with no curtains...?

I like it. But it's definitely for decorative purposes only. 10 minutes in the field and it would be covered with filth.
