Leica cameras are rightly considered the emperors of photography. The German brand was founded in 1849, only 10 years after the first photographic processes were marketed! The brand is known for the exceptional quality of its optics, to which it devoted itself during its early years. Leica is the inventor of the compact and lightweight camera with a film system that makes it easy to use and immediately makes it the most popular camera of the first photojournalists who traveled the world to bring back extraordinary pictures. The legend was born. The greatest names in photography are associated with the brand: Henri-Cartier Bresson, William Eggleston and Nan Goldin are users whose work Leica has accompanied or continues to accompany. Some of the most famous photos, including the Soviet flag planted on the Reichtag, the portrait of Che Guevara or the girl with the flower (in front of tanks) were taken with a Leica camera. And now it's your turn! Whether you have a film or digital camera like the Leica M, Leica SL or Leica Q, our teachers will accompany you step by step to combine the exceptional with the pleasant and make photos worthy of the biggest names in photography!
The main assets of the Leica are size (and yes, size counts, especially when it's small!), robustness (a German company), reliability and above all, the quality of the optics, which are well known to surpass those of all its competitors! Moreover, they are extremely discreet cameras (formerly the only ones allowed in lawsuits) which makes them the ideal ally of photojournalists and that you will take everywhere for your street photo sessions. Our photojournalism, street photography and humanist photography courses are made for that! Naturally, we give photo courses dedicated to users of film photography, but we also offer courses to develop and print your own photos! You can also book live remote course online.
