    • Leica Camera introduces a new design variation to the Leica CL with the introduction of the Leica CL silver anodized finish, featuring a classic combination of black and silver. The top plate, base plate and top control elements are silver anodized while the camera is clad in a black leather trim for a classic look. The technical features and accessory options of the Leica CL, silver anodized finish are the same as the Leica CL, black. A silver thumb support accessory to match the Leica CL, silver anodized finish will also be available from October. The Leica CL Vario kit includes the CL camera and Vario-Elmar-TL 18-56 f/3.5-5.6 ASPH lens. The kit represents a savings of $450 when compared to purchasing the items separately.
    • The Leica CL is an intuitive camera with a built-in high-resolution electronic viewfinder and all essential controls conveniently located on its top plate, designed to be used with L-mount lenses. Atop the camera are two dials, with customizable buttons in each center, for setting the aperture, shutter speed, ISO value, exposure compensation and shooting mode – making it convenient for the photographer to take pictures without taking their eye away from the viewfinder. An additional display on the top plate instantly provides all relevant photographic settings at a glance. The user has total control at their fingertips when taking pictures with the Leica CL, and the perfectly tuned pressure point of the shutter release brings it all together with a satisfying haptic click.
