A Modern Mecca for Photography Lovers: My Visit to Leica HQ in Wetzlar

4/10/2024

Earlier this week, I visited the Leica Camera HQ in Wetzlar, and I have to say, I was really impressed by the whole campus—from the iconic cameras to the state-of-the-art gear on display. I spent time not only checking out all the latest tech but also some of the historic and classic photography gear. While I was at it, I took the chance to snap some shots of the various buildings. The modern architecture across the campus really fits with Leica's style—clean, sleek, and super cool. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! – Wetzlar, Hessen, Germany

Goedenavond Rudy. Ik heb de tijd genomen om uw cv te lezen en om door uw site te wandelen en mij te verwonderen. Wat een prachtige foto’s heb ik gezien. Mijn oprechte complimenten. Zelf heb ik oktober vorig jaar LEICA WELT bezocht. Sinds 1975 gebruik ik de Leica, eerst de R3. Nu veel met SL2 (met 24-70 en 70-200mm), daarnaast met Q2 Monochrome. Ik heb gekozen voor een site in monochrome. Misschien dat ik nog een andere site laat maken met kleurenfoto’s. Met hartelijke groeten, Paul Schmidt. Nederland.
