That special edition white Leica: Only $9,000 this June (in Japan)

As I just said in out little chat room, brought to you by Campfire, if I won the lotto, the first, and possibly only, tech thing I’d buy would be that special edition Leica. I’d have no idea how to properly use it, of course, but I’d be willing to fly out to Germany and have the Leica folks teach me. It would only cost me ¥880,000 [JP], or just shy of $9,000.

The reason why I’d be willing to spend so much money on this Leica? Because the best comic working today, Louis CK, took these amazing photos with a Leica while he was on a USO tour in Iraq. I mean look at this:

That’s insane.

Dare to dream, I guess.
