The Leica M8.2 ($6,213) is a small, but significant overhaul of the company’s successful M8 rig. It features an ultra scratch-resistance sapphire crystal LCD display, redefined bright frames in the viewfinder, an easy
to use snapshot mode for those who don’t want to bother with all the manual settings and metal blade focal plane shutter that makes it sound more like a film camera. If a camera could get you chicks, this would
be it, too bad you’ll have to sell an organ and/or your first born to afford one.

Bridging the gap between dSLRs and medium format cameras, the new Leica S2 ($TBA) packs a 30 x 45 mm, 37.5 megapixel sensor and compatibility with Leica’s range of S-series lenses. Other features include a high-res 3-inch display, the exclusive MAESTRO image processor, a dual shutter system, a precise, quiet autofocus system, and more. It’s an entirely new class of camera.
