Leica unveils two Hammertone special editions, launching film and digital models
Leica Camera on Nov. 13 announced the launch of two Hammertone-finished special editions: the Leica M-A Hammertone and the Leica M11-P Hammertone. The Hammertone finish creates a distinctive texture through surface tension differences during drying. Both models apply the finish to brass top and bottom plates and add a glossy silver shutter button and black leather-textured exterior. The M-A is a mechanical film model, while the M11-P is a digital model with a 60-megapixel full-frame sensor and other features.
