MINOX DCC Leica M3

(Best viewed "original" size)

This is a miniaturized digital Classic from Minox (5MP), a replica of the legendary Leica M3 designed in great details. It was given to me last year as a birthday present by my young son.

The Minox was shot with the legendary NIKON F in the background to compare their sizes.

Nikon D3 ,Nikkor 24-85mm f/2.8-4D AF
1/2s f/6.3 at 85.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I have seen this little Minox in a shop window and it is very small indeed. Great comparison of the two camera's, Fong. Do you have a gallery with images from this camera?.BV

I use to own a Nikon F match needle 35mm camera. It was a great camera for portraits with a 105mm lens attached. "voted"

Looking at the Nikon F I had fond memories, since it was the first true camera I had.
It was the first of a long and reliable connexion with Nikon.
Leica , famous or legendary, never was near of cameras I want to own.
