April 1st: Leica has announced the Iowa special edition of the M-P, referred to as the LEICOWA.  Based on the M-P digital rangefinder, the Leicowa features actual corn covering rather than leather, and bold green and yellow colors throughout.  The corn covering has the advantage, in case of overheating, of turning into a tasty popcorn snack.  There is no red dot; instead familiar Iowa icons are featured on the front and top.  A matching 35mm Summarit lens is available, including a hawkeye lens hood for University of Iowa fans.  If the camera and lens are purchased together as a set, a handy re-useable corncob lens wipe is included.  The camera will be produced in Dickens in cooperation with a local factory, whose expertise in galvanized pipe manufacture directly applies to camera production.  The location is also handy for access to a famous Steakhouse and Lounge.

Nice for the planet 🌈

Why then offering old Summarit-M f/2.5 ♻️

Iowa is so bright and sunny that f/2.5 seems adequate.  A faster lens would likely be dazzled by the colorful corn and camera body.
