Today, Leica Camera USA
has announced the Leica CL ‘Street Kit.’ Adding another bundled option to the
lineup after the CL Starter Bundle with 18mm Elmarit-TL was introduced earlier
this week, the CL ‘Street Kit’ offers a comprehensive package aimed at street
photographers. Combining a black Leica CL camera, 23mm f/2 Summicron-TL ASPH
lens, CL Handgrip, vintage black leather carrying strap, and an extra battery,
the ‘Street Kit’ is ready to be pressed into service.
The compact 23mm f/2
Summicron, equivalent to the tried-and-true 35mm focal length on full frame,
offers the classic reportage field of view. A fast f/2 maximum aperture allows for subject isolation and low light
performance. The addition of the upgraded leather strap, handgrip for added
stability, and an extra battery round out the ‘Street Kit.’
The Leica CL is an awesome
little camera, and a great way to get into a Leica interchangeable lens system
camera. I’ve been using it for almost all of my personal photographic needs
over the past year and will have an in-depth review up on Red Dot Forum in the
near future. For more CL content, you can check out Kirsten’s travels to India
with the Leica CL here: Two Weeks in India with the Leica CL: Getting out of myComfort Zone, and Luis’ thoughts on shooting Leica M lenses on the CL here:

Leica CL ‘Street Kit’ is an $835 savings over purchasing the components
separately. You can order by clicking the link below, emailing
