A new $8,000 digital camera from Leica that only shoots in B&W. Yep, you read that right.
So: why? Well take a look at the images posted on this link, they are shot at ISO 6400 and ISO 10,000 and yet they have very low noise compared to most other cameras.
That’s why.
Also the B&W looks excellent, cool camera — just wish it was in my price range.
