Description: I am selling a black Leica M8, like new with fancy box, manuals, all original equipment. It comes with a 50mm f/2.0 Summicron Lens and a Leica 24D flash, as well as an extra battery.

I have owned it for 7 months and it's been used so little - it just isn't my thing. I am partial to my D3. I would guess it has well under 1,000 actuations. I'm selling it at a serious discount. It is in perfect condition. Not a single problem. Really neat camera, very portable and discreet. I also have a flash for the camera - it's the Leica 24D flash. NEVER used. LOL. Retails for $349 from B&H. I'm including the flash.

You may not have heard, but Leica is now offering a program that allows you to get updates for the M8 when they are offered, so it's likely to be the latest and greatest camera that Leica has to offer for quite some time to come. Eventually you'll even be able to upgrade the sensor.

I bought the 50mm f/2.0 Summicron lens from a camera store as a "used" lens, but it was actually new in box when I got it. Not a single mark on it, all original box, packaging, etc. Probably sat on someone's shelf. I have the UV filter for it from Leica, as well as another one that I will include. It's an excellent lens that gives you a ton of options for whatever you're planning to photograph.

I included two photos that I took with the M8 and this 50mm lens. Black and white photos are amazing and Leica's claim to fame, but I wanted you to see that color photos can look amazing too. The Leica shoots in DNG files, which is very convenient to work with in Lightroom, Aperture, or Photoshop.

These are in pristine condition. The retail price would be around $6700 (plus applicable tax) if you were to purchase the camera, lens, flash, and extra battery new. And these really are new.

Shipping cost is included in the price.

If you don't need the lens, email me and we can talk about splitting them up. However I will give priority to buyers who want to take them as a package deal.

Please PM me or email info@egomediaphotography.com
