Not satisfied with just "Reducing to only the essential camera features," Leica M Edition 666 carries the concept even further: a simple red dot made with the finest silk spun materials is adhered to the photographer's forehead. The imaging lens is the incredible flat field, achromatic, single element meniscus eyeballs (single eye if you are Ted Grant, and 3 eyes if you are an enlightened being). The sensor is the cone and rods in your retina, giving new meaning to "retina display." The storage is only limited by whether the photographer has a photographic memory or whether they have a "memory like a sieve." For the discerning photographer, the red dot can be "pre-visualized" and does not need to be adhered at all, at an additional cost of $10,000. Leica M Edition 666 will be available in October 2016 for $39,999. Special anniversary editions will be available. -- // richard <http://www.richardmanphoto.com> // http://facebook.com/richardmanphoto // https://www.facebook.com/Transformations.CosplayPortraits
