Leica Camera AG's booth at PMA is highlighting the company's M-system and R-system film cameras, as well as the Digital Module R digital camera back.
The Digital Module R allows users to convert the R8 and R9 35mm film cameras quickly and painlessly to a digital camera with a whopping 10 megapixel sensor resolution. The speed with which the back can be installed really is impressive - booth reps had the changeover down to probably as little as 20 seconds.As they joked to us when switching from digital back to film, the most difficult part is probably remembering to pop a roll of film in the camera...
As well as our exclusive photos of the R9 with Digital Module R below, you can also see a featurette from the Sneak Peek event showing the Digital Module R in action, as part of our first ever
video coverage
of PMA.
