It is a known fact that Leica goes to quite an extend to assure the quality of their equipment. With introduction of the new Leica T we learned that the camera body is not only milled from a solid block of aluminum, as a finished touch the camera is then polished for 45 minutes – by hand. Here is a video that shows the entire process. To be honest, it is a little bit like watching paint dry, but it clearly shows that Leica is not taking any shortcuts with this camera. Just skip ahead from time to time and you will see the many painstaking steps involved with this process.
