Leica introduced a new version of its best compact digital camera – Leica D-Lux 7 Black with a black body and a lens. The new compact camera version of the D-Lux 7 Black weighs 400 grams, and by its characteristics, the camera is similar to the existing Silver color model.
A new mirrorless camera for travel is equipped with a Leica DC Vario-Summilux 10.9–34mm F1.7–2.8 ASPH zoom lens (equivalent to 24–75mm in 35 mm format). It also has a touch screen, Bluetooth module, and the ability to recharge via USB.
