Leica has unveiled the Q3 43 Formula 1 Edition, a special version of its full-frame compact camera featuring a racing-inspired design and a new Formula 1 Leica Look. Developed through a licensing partnership with the motorsport, the camera combines the German manufacturer’s existing hardware with a series of cosmetic changes inspired by the motorsport.
The Leica Q3 43 Formula 1 Edition retains the original camera’s overall design but introduces several distinctive touches. Most notably, it features genuine carbon fibre components on its wireless charging handgrip, thumb rest, and soft-release button, with the parts manufactured and tested in Germany.
