drums1977 Posted July 27, 2009 Share #1 Posted July 27, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Little question to the LEICA lovers in Berlin: I'm going to Berlin for the first time -how exciting...- in a week and of course I plan to visit some photography shops there for genuine Leica deals! The problem is, I don't know any... I thought maybe some forum members might be able to help me here... Any recommendation will be most welcomed. Cheers!

hoppyman Posted July 29, 2009 Share #5 Posted July 29, 2009 I visited Meister Camera in June, being an overseas tourist on my way to Solms a little later for the Forum meettings. I only speak English (well Australian!) but the staff were still accommodating. They have a large range of used Leica and it is well worth a visit. I was cheerfully given the new Super Elmar 18 to try outside and was presented with a useful English Leica catalogue too. Absolutely worth a visit if you are in that marvellous city. Take lots of film or memory cards! Four frames from inside the store in my Berlin gallery here: Berlin Visit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckart Posted July 29, 2009 Share #6 Posted July 29, 2009 Hi, I'll give you one more address, which is not very far from Meistercamera/Fasanenstrasse and Wüstefeld/Grolmannstrasse, because they are all three in Charlottenburg/Wilmersdorf Foto Schilling / Kantstrasse 87, a little dusty shop with only secondhand cameras and lenses from all manufactors and of course also Leitz/Leica. You can be lucky. And than two more addresses which are bit farer from there, the first one in Schöneberg: Foto Meyer / Welserstrasse 1 This is a photoshop with professionell ambitions, because there is a photographers school, called Lette Verein in the neighbourhood. They have always one window with interesting secondhand stuff, sometimes including Leica. The next one is in Neukölln: Foto Braune / Karl-Marx-Strasse 7 This is a secondhand camera shop as well, with sometimes Leicastuff. When you are in Berlin, send me a PN, if you want, maybe we can have a bear or coffee together;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoppyman Posted July 30, 2009 Share #9 Posted July 30, 2009 Hallo Eckart. There are several on your list that I missed when I visited. I will have to go back! I smiled when you said "a bear or a coffee" I think you meant some excellent Berlin beer. But there are plenty of Buddy Bears in Berlin!

drums1977 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share #11 Posted September 9, 2009 Hi everyone! I forgot yo thank you all for your help on Berlin photography shops. I think I went to them all ,,, Really, I went to so many of them. Finally got myself a ever ready case at Maister Camera for (only) 120 euros. I had read so many bad things about leica cases and, quite honestly, this one is just great! Thanks again! J. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmarman Posted September 13, 2009 Share #12 Posted September 13, 2009 I was in Berlin in 1956 at the British Miltary Hospital Spandau -- I was in the Royal Army Medical Corps-- I went the Berlin ZOO -- there were hardly any animals there, espeicially BEARS as they had all been eaten, but there was plenty of BEER ( Schultheiss it was called ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
