The Red Dot (Home of Leica)


Last week, I was on a job in Wetzlar, a town some 60 kms (36 mls) north of Frankfurt, and happened to drive past the headquarters of Leica, Germany’s last camera manufacturer to speak of. I decided to stop and pay a short visit to their showroom, exhibition and museum.
(Photos taken with a Canon 5dIII and Canon 14mm, 24mm lenses and a Sigma 50mm Art though.

I’d love to have a Leica S but can’t afford it)

Christmas Cameras

Christmas Cameras

Two christmas tree balls shaped like Leica and Rollei cameras are on display at the Christmasworld trade fair that opened in Frankfurt, Jan.24. They are mouth-blown from glass and hand-painted by the people at a small manufacturer in Neustadt in northern Bavaria.
Picture was taken with a Japanese camera, though. (Canon 5d MkIII, EF 24-70 2.8 L II, f 3.5, 1/40 sec)
