HOW TO CLEAN YOUR LEICA SENSOR

 


Many are very much afraid to clean the sensor in their camera. While sensors definitely have to be handled with care, they are not as delicate as many camera owners assume. I have cleaned the sensor in my cameras on many occasions and never have experience any problems at all.

Leica Store Miami, through its Red Dot Forum, has published a video, explaining how to safely clean the sensor in your Leica camera.

LEICA CAMERA SERIAL NUMBERS AND MANUFACTURING DATES




By Heinz Richter

I am the lucky owner of a list of Leica serial numbers, starting with the pre-production cameras in 1923 and up to 1965.  I obtained it years ago in form of a bad photocopy.  My apologies for that.  However, even though it is incomplete, and even though other such lists have been shown, I feel it is still a very useful document which has shed light on many Leicas in the past and, I am sure, will do so in the future.

















I have also been able to obtain some information the serial numbers of the Leica R cameras and on some of the Leica lenses.
