Hello - I'm Here From Leica To Help You

Last Friday night - rainy and cold - saw a visit from the Leica men. And they brought something new and marvellous to see - The Leica M camera.

What? Leica M cameras have been around for years! Not this one - it is the new Leica M - the one that has been reported in the press with the model number of 240.

As you can see from the photographs, there were a great number of great people who visited the Shoot Photography building right next door to our shop and by all reports they did not go away, hungry, thirsty, or disappointed. Apparently the Germans make beer and sausages - this is a revelation to me and recommends them to my notice in the future - and there was a good selection on offer.

The other things on offer - the range of Leica digital cameras, the wonderful Leica lenses, and the new Leica M camera - were ably demonstrated by the Leica representatives and the Camera Electronic staff in attendance. There is nothing like a good hands-on experience to stimulate the imagination and set the hopes high. Leica cameras are certainly the peak of aspiration for many photographers and the new M sets  a very high standard indeed.
