Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


Are Leica Cameras Compatible with Other Brands of Lenses?

Leica cameras are generally only compatible with Leica-branded lenses. Some Leica camera models may have adapters that allow the use of other brands' lenses, but you should always check the specifications of your camera, lenses, and other equipment before purchasing.

How Did Leica Get Its Name?

Leica got its name when Oskar Barnack, an engineer at the German company Ernst Leitz Optische Werke invented a 35mm film camera that was portable and easy to shoot, even outside. He combined his boss's name, Leitz, and camera to create the Leica I. Although the internal technologies have come a long way, many Leica cameras share similar design characteristics with Barnack's original Leica I camera.

What Is Special About Leica Cameras?

Professionals and camera enthusiasts alike enjoy using Leica cameras and lenses due to their exceptional craftsmanship, precision engineering, and vibrant image quality. Leica cameras have an excellent reputation in the photography industry and deliver professional results. While the Leica brand may be one of the more expensive camera brands, this is due to the handcrafted components in every Leica camera and lens.

Does Panasonic Own Leica?

No! However, Leica and Panasonic have partnered and collaborated on many digital cameras and lenses. Leica has been known to rebrand Panasonic cameras, while Panasonic uses the Leica brand name on some of its top-of-the-line camera lenses. These collaborations between Panasonic and Leica have developed some of the best camera systems, but they are still two unique brands and players in the camera market. Panasonic and Leica also share the L-mount on their cameras, so most of their lenses are interchangeable between the two brands.

What Products Does Leica Make?

The Leica company manufactures a wide range of optical products, including cameras, lenses, binoculars, microscopes, and rifle scopes. At Samy's, we carry Leica cameras and lenses that boast high-quality performance in the photography and videography industries.

We also have hand grips, thumb support, and camera straps, so that you can custom fit your Leica camera to your needs. Other Leica accessories, such as screen protectors, soft release buttons, AC adapters, and viewfinder magnifiers are extremely useful to have on hand during professional shoots.

What Is the Price Range for Leica Products?

The cost of Leica mirrorless cameras range from $3,200 to $17,500, and cameras in their digital point-and-shoot camera line costs anywhere from $1,400 to $6,200.
