Leica 0 Prototype - History of Cameras

The Leica 0 Prototype is the result of the efforts of Oskar Barnack, that in 1914 revolutioned the world of photography. Compact and lightweight – a mere 400g – and using 35mm cinematic film, it was small enough to fit into a coat pocket, and rapidly became essential not only to professional photographers but also amateurs, thereby bringing photography into everyday life.
