Dear Leica friends,

of highly interesting new products on this occasion. Today
the LEICA M-sytem:

The new LEICA M6 TTL-models feature a number of handling
improvements and now also enable TTL-controlled flash
photography.

Matching the camera (and the LEICA R8 as well), a compact
and comprehensively equipped dedicated flash unit is now
available, the LEICA SF20.

As if to underline our motto for this years photokina,
"Leica. Optics make the difference." outstanding new lenses
further enhance the LEICA M-sytem's capabilities.

The LEICA APO-SUMMICRON-M f/2/90mm ASPH. combines - as the
first Leica lens ever - an apochromatical correction with
the utilization of an aspherical lens surface resulting in
unprecedented imaging power in one of the most popular focal
length ranges.

The LEICA APO-TELYT-M f/3,4/135mm offers this picture
quality in the LEICA M-system's longest focal length.

the LEICA M6 can now choose between additional lenses in
matching finish.

LEICA ELMARIT-M f/2.8/24mm ASPH. silver chrome finish
