We regularly check our competitors pricing to ensure we offer the best value in all our new and used equipment. We can also offer a variety of finance products (subject to status) including many 0% Interest Free finance packages. We have many excellent examples of used equipment in stock and the camera bodies generally come with a 12 month warranty. If they are digital cameras, then we have had the sensors cleaned before they get offered for sale; this is all part of our service and our heritage. Our status as a Leica only store means we can provide all maintenance services from the new service facility in Wetzlar, Germany. We also can offer in store sensor cleaning on a Friday morning provided by Sensor Clean Manchester. Contact us for a quotation and availability.

Some things just belong on a Leica.

The KEKS light meters have landed at Leica Store Manchester and they might be one of the cleanest modern additions you can make to a classic M body.

Shown here:
• The beautifully minimal M-Meter mounted on the Leica M-A
• The KM-Q sitting perfectly on a black Leica M4

No apps. No distractions. Just a beautifully mechanical shooting experience with a little modern reassurance when the light gets tricky.

The KM-Q especially feels right at home on black chrome bodies — subtle, understated and properly period-correct in spirit.

Perfect for anyone shooting meterless M cameras who wants to keep the experience pure without sacrificing usability.

Available now in-store and online. Which combo are you choosing? 👀

The Noctilux has always had a certain presence.

Seeing that same character arrive in 35mm just feels genuinely lovely — familiar, but somehow more everyday.

It’s the sort of lens you take a moment with. Pick it up, turn it over in your hands, and slow down a little.

It’s here to spend some time with at Leica Store Manchester.

Introducing the Leica Q3 Monochrom.
Where colour ends, creativity begins.

The new Q3 Monochrom strips photography back to its essentials — light, shadow, and the emotion in between. A true 60MP monochrome sensor (no colour filter, no compromise) gives every frame incredible depth, detail and soul. Paired with the iconic Summilux 28 f/1.7, it turns everyday scenes into timeless black-and-white stories.

If you’ve ever felt drawn to the honesty of monochrome, this is the camera that finally gives it room to breathe.

Available now at Leica Store Manchester.
