***SOLD***
This limited edition has been created in collaboration with Swiss world champion snowboarder (halfpipe) Iouri Podladtchikov, whose own ideas inspired the design of the camera.
The Leica Q ‘Snow’ by Iouri Podladtchikov is based on the color version of the Leica Q with a silver anodized top deck and baseplate and controls on the top deck in silver. The design concept also features a new accessory shoe cover made from aluminum. The highlights of the special edition include the pure white trim in premium real leather that gives it its name. The edition is also strictly limited to only 300 examples for the worldwide market, each of which bears a special serial number and in this case it’s limited edition number : 106/300. In the words of the dedicated Leica photographer: ‘As a brand ambassador, it’s a fascinating feeling to have inspired a special edition of a camera, but I also see it as an enormous responsibility’. His choice of the color therefore has a number of facets: white doesn’t just mean snow, the obvious choice for a snowboarder. ‘White – for me, that also means ‘carte blanche’ – it’s up to you. It’s time to get creative’, says Iouri Podladtchikov, who has already published two books of his photography and will soon be opening his own studio.
Camera with red half case and red strap.
