The one-of-a-kind Limited Edition Leica M (RED) camera has finally arrived in New York and is currently on display at Leica's SoHo Store.

Anyone who wants to see this unique Leica model, should visit Leica's store before November 23 when the Limited Edition camera will be auctioned at Sotheby's.

The Leica M was designed by famous Apple Senior Vice President of Design, Sir Jonathan Ive and London-based designer Mark Newson.

Leica M comes with a full-format CMOS sensor in a body made entirely from aluminum using the latest technologies. A new Leica APO-Summicron-M 50mm f/2 ASPH custom lens has also been made to complement the body.

The upcoming auction will be hosted by (RED) and Sotheby's. All the funds raised from the auction will be donated to the Global Fund to help fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria in Africa.
