Life has many magical moments you can see coming almost before they happen. Moments that must be kept forever, although they are gone in a flash. Moments that must be framed and captured to hold in your hand –transformed into lifelong memories that you can relive again and again. The Leica Sofort was created precisely for these moments. The first instant camera from Leica.
The Leica Sofort Instant Film Camera (White) offers the same high-end look and feel that we expect from the Leica. The camera works with instax mini format film, including color and monochrome that sport a natural Warm White border. The camera features an Automatik-Hektor 60mm f/12.7 lens-equivalent to 34mm in full-frame terms-with a three-zone manual focus selector for more control over the image result. The Leica Sofort has a compact body with clean, sensitive buttons. It also has a 0.37x optical viewfinder with composing features for best results, multiple automatic shooting modes makes it easy-to-use. The Sofort has been optimized for light photography with a mechanical shutter giving speeds of 1/8 second and a built-in flash with a later firing speed. The Sofort can be set up on a tripod thanks to an integrated 1/4"-20 threads on its base. Strap lugs make it easy to attach a strap and carry around all day. It uses a rechargeable Li-ion battery pack that should provide enough power for about 100 shots before needing to be recharged.
The perfect combination of style and functionality in the small and compact Leica Sofort makes it the ideal companion for fashion-conscious people who love photography. It comes in a choice of cool and contemporary colours – orange, mint and white. What’s your colour? Whether on a surf adventure or out at a party, the stylish, compact Leica Sofort is always by your side. Dive into the atmosphere and be inspired! When you encounter a special moment, frame it, capture it – quickly, intuitively and creatively! The simple operation and variety of settings of the Leica Sofort will help you take control. The Leica Sofort has a programme suitable for every occasion. Just pick the one you need, concentrate on your subject and let the Leica Sofort take care of everything else.
