The Leica MP Unique Gold analog camera is an elegant, ultra-limited-edition piece of photography gear for collectors to pick up, if they can get their hands on it.
The camera was created as a collaboration between Leica AG and Leitz Photographica Auction, and features a series of galvanically gold-plated accents to immediately catch the eye. The rest of the camera is finished with ostrich leather to give it a distinctly textured aesthetic against the golden backdrop.
The Leica MP Unique Gold analog camera is devoice of engravings outside of a hidden serial number on the winding lever for authentication purposes. Available now at a starting bid of $13,600, the camera will be sold with all proceeds going towards a non-profit organization in Austria and Germany.
