Furthermore, Leica is hosting a Bond behind-the-scenes exhibition to celebrate the launch of the camera and case. A fantastic collection of black and white photos from the making of No Time To Die will be on display at the Leica Gallery in London, taken by Bond star Daniel Craig, producer Michael G Wilson and photographers Nicola Dove and Greg Williams. Commemorating the coming together of two iconic brands with a shared love for premium photography, we caught up with Leica’s Dr Andreas Kaufmann to talk about the collaboration and his favourite travel destinations.
Can you tell us a little about the new Leica x Globe-Trotter collaboration?
The Leica Q2 007 special edition set comes in a customised handcrafted camera case suitcase to celebrate the release of the 25th Bond adventure. Inspired by the bespoke Globe-Trotter cases that feature in No Time To Die, the camera case and camera are finished in the same Ocean Green leather colourway. The ‘Ocean Green’ colourway used in the movie was handpicked by No Time To Die costume designer Suttirat Anne Larlarb as part of her 007 collaboration with the Globe-Trotter team.
