Highlights

This Leica Q "Nikki Sixx Edition" represents one of 28 units produced exclusively for North American Leica stores in 2017. The camera pairs the standard Leica Q's 24MP full-frame sensor and fixed 28mm f/1.7 Summilux lens with cosmetic modifications specific to this collaboration with Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx.

The special edition features black snakeskin-textured leatherette, a laser-engraved Nikki Sixx signature on the top plate, and serial number 26-28 (indicating unit 26 of 28 total). Each camera includes an edition-specific black Leica leather wrist strap and black DSPTCH braided shoulder strap. The edition number 28 references Sixx's age when he overdosed and subsequently committed to recovery through photography.

Technically, this camera matches the standard Leica Q introduced in 2015: 24MP sensor, autofocus 28mm f/1.7 Summilux lens, electronic viewfinder, and full manual controls. The Q's fixed-lens design delivers the optical quality of Leica's M-system lenses with the convenience of autofocus and modern features. The 28mm focal length enables 35mm and 50mm crop modes while maintaining high resolution.

This example has been stored in original packaging since delivery in November 2017. Approximately 250 indoor test shots were taken before storage. The camera includes all original packaging, accessories, and documentation. Shutter count remains extremely low for a seven-year-old camera.
