He was always having at least one Leica camera with him all the time. Leica Camera and the Jim Marshall Estate have now worked together for a limited edition set of the LEICA M Monochrom “Jim Marshall” Set to celebrate Marshall’s legacy.

The set includes a LEICA M Monochrom (Typ 246) camera and a LEICA SUMMILUX-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH lens, both are made of brass with speical “Laiton” finishing to provide a unique matt look.
This edition is limited to 50 sets.
