Matthias Harsch Will Lead the New Sales, Marketing and Communications Management Board
April 20, 2017 – The progressive internationalization of Leica presents new opportunities for all areas of the company, including new operations and realignment of the sales force.

If you haven’t noticed yet, prices of photo gear have been going up for a while now and will continue to do so as the industry continue to shrink. If you are planning to buy a new Leica camera, lens or accessory, I recommend you place an order before the end of this month:
You can now buy Leica products directly from the company’s website in Germany at store.leica-camera.com. Interesting to note that the Leica M10 camera is not available for sale online. The online store includes also sport optics and accessories.
UPDATE: I am no longer involved with the original project because of some shady practices from the people I was working with. If you are still interested in purchasing sterling silver soft release buttons for Leica cameras, please check Jay Tsujimura’s work. There are some other companies trying to copy his work, but the quality is not even close to Jay’s work.
