Saul Leiter began photographing the streets of New York in the late 1940s and produced some of the earliest and most considered color street photographs, working with Kodachrome and a Leica rangefinder. He spent decades largely outside the art world's attention, earning his living as a fashion photographer for Harper's Bazaar and Elle. A retrospective in 2006 introduced his work to a wider audience.

Introduced in 1954, the M3 was Leitz's first camera to use the M bayonet mount. Its combined viewfinder and rangefinder, with 0.91x magnification, set a standard for 35mm rangefinder design that every subsequent Leica M followed.

Product description
Kodachrome 64 is a color reversal (slide) film discontinued by Kodak in 2010 after more than seven decades of production. Its dye-based structure produced colors with exceptional stability and saturation, and it was the predominant film in professional color photography for much of the postwar period.
