There was a special 0-series Leica build in 1923, one of only 25 pre-production models, that sold for an astonishing 2.16 Million Euro (around 2.8 Million Dollar). Read about it <a title=\"New world record at WestLicht: Leica 0-series for \u20ac 2.16 million!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.l-camera-forum.com\/leica-news\/2012\/05\/new-world-record-at-westlicht-leica-0-series-for-e-2-16-million\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe in 80 years this camera below might be worth something: it is a prototype model of the Leica Monochrom I had a chance to shoot with. The Monochrom (announced in May 2012) only captures pictures in black and white. As an anti-aliasing-filter is not needed, the pictures have much more and finer detail. Because there is no color the problem with noise is also much smaller.<\/p>\n<p>This Monochrome has, as you can see, the serial number P-003 engraved. This means it is the Monochrome prototype number 3. Number P-002 is owned by Leica and was used by Brad Pitt for some time. Pitt is an avid photographer and a big fan of Leica (one of the cameras he owns is a S2).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sumandup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/leica_m.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-12\" alt=\"leica_m\" src=\"https:\/\/sumandup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/leica_m-217x300.jpg\" width=\"217\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sumandup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/leica_m-217x300.jpg 217w, https:\/\/sumandup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/leica_m-742x1024.jpg 742w, https:\/\/sumandup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/leica_m.jpg 1088w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 217px) 100vw, 217px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a lot of fuzz about special Leica cameras, special editions, special serial numbers.
