According to the description, the camera was designed in collaboration with Moncler, which for those unfamiliar is a fashion brand with French origins, so much so that the camera has been designed with France’s flag and colors as a motif. The colored stripes will be made from premium leather which they believe will appeal to fashion forward camera users.
Unfortunately pricing of the Leica X Edition Moncler was not mentioned in the company’s press release, but given how expensive Leica’s cameras tend to be, not to mention that this will be a limited edition model, well safe to say that it will most definitely not come cheap. For those shopping on a budget, well we guess you’d be out of luck.
The camera, like we mentioned earlier, is based on the Leica X (type 113) model. This means that photographers can look forward to a 16.5 APS-C CMOS sensor with a Summilux 23mm f/1.7 ASPH lens. The normal Leica X (type 113) is priced at around $2,295, so we guess the Moncler edition will be around that range, if not higher.
