| The LEICA DIGITAL-MODUL-R is a digital camera back designed to fit regular production LEICA R8 and R9 cameras. LEICA R8 and R9 cameras will thus become the world’s very first hybrid 35 mm cameras that can be used for digital or analog photography. |
| The LEICA DIGITAL-MODUL-R combines tradition and progress in a unique way. Nearly all high performance lenses in the LEICA R system since 1965 can be used for digital and analogue image recording. The LEICA DIGITAL-MODULE-R makes full use of their exceptionally high imaging performance. | | Now you can take digital photographs in the Leica quality you have come to expect. | | •Type: interchangeable digital module, fully compatible with LEICA R8 and R9, can be exchanged by the photographer her-/himself | | •Lenses: all Leica R-lenses as well as those earlier LEICAFLEX/SL/SL2-lenses that have been modified by adding the R-cam can be used. | | •Image Sensor: 3872 x 2576 Pixels (10 MPixel) CCD-Chip, active sensor area 26.4 x 17.6 mm, focal length extension factor 1.37 | | •Sensitivity: ISO 100 up to at ISO 1600 | | •Storage media: SD-card | | •Data-formats: RAW (DNG), TIFF, 2 JPEG-compression rates | | •BW-Display shows: Frame counter, ISO, exposure compensation, battery status, self timer, compression rate, resolution, moiré on/off, white balance. | | •Menue: sharpness, color saturation, contrast, frame number, contrast of color display, brightness of color display, duration of auto review, histogram on/off, power save options, card formatting, warning signals, audio histogram on/off, date, time, user-profils, firmware update, reset. | | •Interface: IEEE 1394 Firewire | | •Power supply: proprietary Lithium Ionen rechargeable battery pack. | | •Color monitor: for image control and menue-controlled settings. | | •Shutter cocking: by motor integrated in power unit. | | •Size: Comparable to LEICA R8/R9 with Motor-Drive (W x H x D) 158 x 140 x 89 mm. | | •Weight: DMR with Power Unit and Battery: 725 g | DMR complete with R9: 1395 g | |
