German brand announced the A BATHING APE x STASH D-Lux 7 camera

Leica has announced the A BATHING APE x STASH D-Lux 7 camera, which is said to be the epitome of street fashion and the urban lifestyle.

The device is branded by New York graffiti artist STASH (Josh Franklin) and features unique camouflage finishes from streetwear brand A BATHING APE (BAPE). Matching style accessories are included, including a specially designed camera bag, auto-opening lens cap, and carrying strap.

“Japanese streetwear brand A BATHING APE reflects the spirit of the younger generation. Since 1993, its iconic monkey head logo, style and unique camouflage finish have become known around the world through the Tokyo fashion scene. STASH, aka Josh Franklin, is considered one of the pioneers of New York's graffiti culture, as well as an influence on the world of urban design,” notes Leica.

As for the technical component of the novelty, it is inherited from the standard version of the D-Lux 7. The camera is equipped with a Four Thirds CMOS sensor (17.3 × 13 mm) with 17 million effective pixels, a Leica DC Vario-Summilux 10.9–34 f/1.7–2.8 ASPH lens with 3.1x optical zoom, 35mm equivalent focal length of 24-75mm, 3-inch touchscreen and electronic viewfinder.
