Leica Store Seoul.
A couple of hours after the official announcement of the new Leica T System, I thought I’d pay Leica Store in Seoul a short visit hoping to play with the newly announced camera.
I packed a fresh SD card with the hope that I would be able to insert into the camera for a few shots..
A 40 minute taxi drive to the shop and I’ve been told by the staff that the new T won’t be in store before June. Although I was hoping, I didm’t really expected to find any T system in store.
I took the time to visit the store and I must admit that it was the most amazing Leica Store I’ve seen to date, and I have visited a few (New York, Los Angeles, Orlando, Sydney, France …)
The store is on a four storey building and a drooling Leica Museum.
The third floor is for trade in gears and had on display complete systems of Hasselblad (including the H5D50c), Briese, Broncolor, and of course the “regular” dSLRs as the like of Canon and Nikon ..
I took a few snaps around the store on my phone and bought a .. strap for my Leica M240.
