minimal in appearance so to leave focus on specs, the camera is dressed in a sleek black casing. a special scratch-resistant, matte paint is used to make the surface finish as black as possible whilst the leather trim of the camera is made from an extremely smooth full-grain cowhide offering excellent grip.
