Leica R8 Black details

The Leica R8 is a manual focus 35 mm single-lens reflex cameras produced by the German firm Leica as the final models of their R series. Development of the R8 began in 1990, the camera was introduced at the 1996 photokina trade show and was succeeded by the similar Leica R9 in 2002.

Both can be fitted with the Digital Modul R (DMR) digital back (discontinued in 2007) and used as a digital camera making them the only 35 mm SLRs to take a user-installable digital back. The Leica R8 was the first R-series camera to have no association with Minolta, being solely a Leica design and showing a clear stylistic change compared to prior bodies.

The Leica R8 was designed for the more avid amateur and pro photography market. Because of its price point this is still the case. The thing with Leica is that you buy them for life. Meaning that this object is not something that is used once and forgotten but will be used for decades to come. Therefore a new owner of this piece of art is going to have a lifetime of fun and their children and grandchildren will probable be able to use it as well.
