Leica 100 Years Set Features Innovation and Tradition

M_EDITION_100_YEARS_teaser-480x320 (2)

Leica Boutique Bergen County is pleased to announce that we have come into possession of a very special limited edition Leica set!

To commemorate 100 years of Leica photography (film to digital) the fine folks in Germany have begun to ship a set which includes 2 spectacular camera bodies and 3 unique lenses.

One body is the first film camera Leica has made in over 10 years. The M-A film camera is as traditional as they come. Completely manual and mechanical ala the original M3’s of the late 50’s. Old school traditional for the artist in all of us. The second is an M Monochrome for your digital side: superb quality and dynamic range unmatched by any digital camera. The best of analog and digital black and white photography in one limited edition set. Both are in a unique silver color and the set is capped off with 3 beautiful Summilux 1.4 Aspherical lenses . The stainless steel hand milled lenses are 35mm,50mm and our first look at the brand new 28mmf1.4. The set comes packaged in a specifically designed Rimowa hard aluminum case and is limited to 101 pieces worldwide!

We are, as of this writing, taking delivery of our 1 and only set. Past camera sets usually sell out rather quickly.

Please call our boutique at 201-664-4113 and ask to speak to Bob or Jeremy in our Leica Boutique.

Why Buy Photo Books?

A21C9556

Most photo books are only printed in small quantities, often less than 5000 and some as few as 1000 copies. Some individual artist made books are made one at a time. Most well printed photo books accrues additional collectible status when it is a first edition and or signed by the artist. All the major auction houses like Swann, Christies and Sotheby’s run regular auctions dedicated to photo books. Truly affordable works of art when first released, individual books can rise quickly and dramatically in value as the small quantity sell out.

They make the perfect gift for those difficult to buy for. Pick a subject, person, or time in history and chances are we have a beautiful photo book that’s topical and strikes a resplendent chord for an individual. Since we are music fanatics here, you could guess that we represent some of the finest photographers in the world of music. We have a great selection of their books, many of which have been signed.

Photography collecting is widely misunderstood to be very limited to only those whose bank accounts stretch to seven or more figures. Many people that I speak to about fine art photography collecting believe that they must make a bold move like purchasing a museum grade Ansel Adams photograph to enter the field and nothing could be further from the truth. I believe that photography collecting is very democratic and can start with nothing more then a deep love for the medium. It is a very natural extension that’s easily accessible to all who enjoy any aspect of picture making themselves.

The photography field has so many niches that photo books offer an almost universal appeal. Stop in at Bergen County Camera or Gallery 270 to check out our large selection of photo books.
