About Leica:

Leica Camera AG proclaims one mission: to deliver better images. With its headquarters in Solms, Germany, the Leica brand is wholly committed to the production of precision manufacturing and constant innovation. It has come to represent the epitome of photographic experience, technology and craftsmanship, combining to produce the highest quality state of the art optics and an unparalleled user experience.

Though Leica's heritage dates back over 150 years, the iconic brand has retained the rounded one-piece camera body design from the very earliest models. Constant in-house research and development have enabled the creation of future-proof premium photographic equipment that represents multi-generational investment pieces. In addition, the pre-eminence of the brand has lead to its cameras, lenses and accessories becoming highly valued collectibles.

Leica has obtained worldwide recognition and customer loyalty and continues to set the standard for the remainder of the photographic industry
