April 23, 2009: Adeal will release a special edition Leica M8 “White” camera with a white finished body from late in June.
The special edition Leica M8 “White” is not the first Leica camera produced with a non-standard colour scheme. An olive green finish was previously used for two other Leica camera models: in the 1960’s, olive green-painted Leica cameras were supplied to the military and used for unobtrusive surveillance and documentary photography. The second olive green camera model, the Leica R3 ‘Safari’ first introduced in 1977 is today a much sought-after and valuable collector’s item.
