Since the dawn of film, Disney has brought its cartoon storyboards to life with Leica cameras and projectors, revolutionising animation film techniques in the 1930s. To mark Disney's 100th anniversary, we are now revealing the closely guarded secret of our collaboration – and honouring it with a special edition Leica Q2 | Disney “100 Years of Wonder” with a limited production run of 500 units.
The Leica Q2 combines traditional engineering with a spirit of innovation. With a 47.3 MP full-frame sensor and fast Summilux 28 f/1.7 ASPH,. it allows you to shoot and film in 4K with sensitivities of up to ISO 50,000. In addition, the digital zoom extends the Q2's fixed focal length to 35, 50 and 75 mm. The Leica Q2 works quickly, reliably and with IP52 protection.
We share a passion for storytelling with Disney. But above all, a visionary demand for quality. To revolutionise the techniques of animated film, Walt Disney used Leica from the very beginning. Since then, Disney has been animating its cartoon storyboards with Leica cameras and projectors. To celebrate Disney's 100th anniversary, we now reveal the well-kept secret of our collaboration with the limited edition Leica Q2 | Disney "100 Years of Wonder".
Limited special edition for unlimited fun
Just one look at the Leica Q2 | Disney "100 Years of Wonder" reveals the collaboration between the two traditional companies. The cover of the special edition shows Mickey Mouse, Disney's best-known character and one of the world's most famous personalities. The drawings from 1937 were penned by Don Towsley, one of Disney's most renowned animators. From around this time, Disney also used Leica cameras and projectors to bring storyboard animations to life.
Other design details are embossed on the camera’s top plate and display glass. The limited production run of 500 also includes a specially designed rope strap, a dust bag in matching design and a certificate of authenticity. Wrapped in specially designed packaging that, as soon as you unpack it, heightens the anticipation of a camera that you can use to tell your own fascinating stories.
