Didigtal 'Classic Leica M3 copy'
Not a "vintage " camera ' because it's only a few years old, but a CLASSIC it certainly is. It is a novelty, yes, but looks oohhh so good sitting on your shelf, and draws lots of comments if you actually take it out and use it. It is a miniature, less than 3" wide.
As for collectabliliy it is a must for the Lecia, Minox, 35mm rangefinder, sub miniature, novelty or digital camera collectors, or just becuase it is a fun thing to have.
From a commercial camera sales website..... "The digital classic camera Leica M3 from the optical and miniaturization specialists MINOX of Germany, has now become a classic of a very special kind on the digital camera scene where it continues to excite many end users, dealers and press alike. "Finding a niche in the constantly growing and increasingly competitive digital camera market was, according to MINOX General Manager, Thorsten Kortemeier, the major goalset by this traditionally minded company based in Wetzlar. This has been effectively accomplished by MINOX with their digital replica of the Leica classic camera in its ultra miniature format. Naturally, the latest model from MINOX maintains the highly respected and traditional company values of features and fine mechanical precision built into the most compact design. Although unusual, the MINOX Digital Classic Camera Leica M3 is both easy to use and ideal for those getting started in the field of digital photography and wantclassic convention rather than high-tec."
It is 1.3 MP and comes with all original software and USB connection chord. There is a PDY users manual on the CD, also a printed off copy so that is included as well. Much easier to follow than screens of PDF's. Runs on one KCR2 battery(supplied) it is both novel yet practical in that it actually works.
