Leica Notebook "The Photojournalist"

The Photojournalist Notebook is a hardcover notebook in Leica's special format — slightly taller than A6, slightly narrower, sized to fit a coat pocket alongside a small M body. The cover carries the Leica logo embossed; the paper is a writing-grade, fountain-pen-tolerant stock.

Position in the lineup

The Photojournalist Notebook is paper goods rather than camera kit — a piece of the photographer's working method that has nothing to do with the camera itself. Within Leica's catalog it sits alongside other paper goods (the Leitz-Park notebook, the black diamond leather notebook) as part of the wider craft of working with images. The name references Leica's documentary-photography lineage; the function is whatever a photographer's notebook usually is — caption notes, location logs, contact details, the things the EXIF doesn't carry.
