WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
You don't need to use a Leica camera to be a part of Leica Akademie. We cater for all levels of experience from club enthusiasts to working professionals. Absolute beginners are very welcome too but should be at least able to easily operate their cameras and be familiar with their controls.
Please feel free to bring a notebook and for our Lightroom courses we recommend to bring your laptop/iPad with Lightoom installed. For the overseas trips our instructors will be in contact with you prior with what to pack depending on the weather and involved activities.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I HAVE TO CANCEL?
If you need to cancel we will refund your fee up to 30 days before the event. For On Location events, where a booking deposit is required, there is no refund of the deposit unless we can fill your place with someone else. After that we will only refund the full payment if, again, we can fill your place. Please refer to the Akademie Terms and Conditions for full details.
DO I NEED TO BE A LEICA OWNER TO COME TO AN AKADEMIE EVENT?
Absolutely not, all photography enthusiasts are very welcome! Most of our In Focus events are of general photographic interest and will apply to any camera. Events will usually have Leica cameras available to try out but please feel free to bring your own camera along.
WHAT LEVEL OF PHOTOGRAPHIC EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED?
We cater for all levels of experience from club enthusiasts to working professionals. Absolute beginners are very welcome too but should be at least able to easily operate their cameras and be familiar with their controls.
