Leica MP Golden Camera celebrates 60th anniversary of Chinese republic

Duvido que a Leica fizesse uma kamera folheada a ouro 20 seila qtos quilates  para o meu aniversario de 60 anos, mas ela fez uma para a China.

Cada uma das 60 maquinas em edicaoo limitada custa 199.900 yuans  e tem numeracaoo individual de 1949 a 2009. Talvez vc precise ser alguém bem importante (e na China) para conseguir uma dessas, mas, se tiver uns R$ 50 mil e alguma conexao por la, quem sabe a Leica lhe arranja uma.


You know how Leica marks itself out with its typically subdued matte black finishes and old school designs? Well, in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic of China, the camera company has decided to go a bit crazy and punish reward us with this 24 carat gold-plated shooter. Limited to a run of 60, each hallmarked with a year between 1949 and 2009, the Golden Camera is encased in red calfskin, bears an inscription of Mao Zedong's favorite slogan, and sports a Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 lens. To max out the gaudiness, you also get a wooden box to store your equipment in. Sold exclusively in mainland China, these will cost 199,900 Chinese Yuan ($29,300) each, though Leica is also bringing out limited edition M8.2 and D-Lux 4 models -- sans any precious metals -- for the more budget-conscious patriots out there.

Create Abstract Light Art by Snapping a Camera-Toss Photo


 
  






Faca voce mesmo este tipo de fotos muito simples e sem edicao alguma de photoshop


1. The camera

One with manual controls works best. Start with a shutter speed between ½ and 1 second. If the image is too dark, lower the f-stop to increase the aperture. Too bright? Use a higher f-stop.

2. The subject

Target a few bulbs or candles at least 3 inches apart (any closer and the lights will bleed together) and position yourself about 3 feet away — enough distance to keep the lights in the frame.

3. The toss

It can take up to ½ second for the shutter to engage after you press the button. Time it so the shutter opens just as the camera launches. Altitude? Six inches or so should do the trick.

4. The spin

Experiment. End-over-end creates linear patterns. On-axis spins give you spirographs. Feel free to go nuts; should your camera take a spill: It’s the perfect time of year to ask for a new one.
