New: Leica M11-P Safari
Wetzlar, 8 May 2025

Leica Camera AG writes the next chapter in the success story of the coveted olive-green special edition

Leica Camera AG presents the newest member of the M11 family, the Leica M11-P Safari. With this launch, the company is continuing its long tradition of the coveted Leica Safari Editions, which have stood out since the 70s thanks to their olive-green colour scheme. Subtle design features emphasise the special edition’s exclusive aesthetics.

The distinctive colour scheme imbues the Leica Safari’s design with its unmistakable character. Notably, the elaborately constructed camera top plate made of solid brass has been given a durable paint finish in matte olive green. The olive-green finish of the leatherette covering creates perfect colour coordination, while also ensuring exceptional grip.

The silver controls and dials on the camera top plate and front strike a stunning contrast. The red Leica logo has also been deliberately omitted and replaced with a subtle silver screw. The back of the camera is equipped with controls in stylish black. Further distinguishing features, such as the engraved signature Leica script, as well as the “Leica Camera AG” and “Wetzlar Germany” lettering, round off the exceptional design of the Leica M11-P Safari.

The new special edition corresponds to the Leica M11-P with regards to performance and technical specifications. It also pulls off the same extraordinary technological feats as the base model: equipped with content credentials technology, the M11-P Safari can sign every image with tamper-proof metadata, such as the camera model and copyright information, as well as creation and editing dates, if desired.  Its internal 256 GB memory means you can snap photos in DNG and JPG formats to your heart’s content. The LCD panel, which is made of particularly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and features an anti-reflective coating, allows for full control regardless of visibility conditions. Extremely brilliant images that are rich in contrast and details are provided by the high-performance BSI CMOS full-frame sensor with Triple Resolution Technology, which enables a choice of image resolutions from the options of 60, 36 or 18 megapixels. Thanks to seamless connectivity via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or cable, the camera can be quickly and conveniently connected with the Leica FOTOS App. Bluetooth Low Energy allows photos to be transmitted in the background in a way that is both quick and energy efficient.

M-Cameras have been synonymous with precision craftsmanship, uncompromising quality and timeless understatement for over 70 years. The Leica M11-P Safari is the perfect choice for anyone who particularly values exclusivity, aesthetics and style. The special edition is supplied together with a black carrying strap by Leica, which is packaged in sustainable material. The high-quality boxes do not contain any plastic at all and are also produced in Germany.

The Leica M11-P Safari is now available worldwide in all Leica Stores, in the Leica Online Store and from authorised dealers. The recommended retail price is EUR 9,250.00 incl. VAT.

 

100 Years of Leica: Witness to a Century

In 2025, Leica Camera AG is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Leica I, which was first presented to the public at the Leipzig Spring Fair in 1925. As the first 35 mm still camera to be mass-produced, it exceeded all expectations. Because with its compact and handy format, it opened up a whole new range of new photographic applications. All around the globe, under the motto “100 Years of Leica: Witness to a Century”, Leica Camera AG will be celebrating this camera, which revolutionised the world of photography. Cultural projects and extraordinary special-edition products will be launched throughout the year at international events organised by the Leica national subsidiaries in the major cities of Dubai, Milan, New York, Shanghai and Tokyo. The anniversary week, taking place in Wetzlar, the company’s headquarters, in June, marks the high point of the celebrations. On top of that, visitors can look forward to top-class exhibitions in the worldwide network of Leica Galleries with works by outstanding photographers.
