Leica Society International

Leica Society International (LSI) is an international organization of Leica users and collectors. Our vision is to be the ultimate place for Leica photography ennthusiasts. With 2,500+ members in 200 countries, we are a passionate community of Leica photographers and collectors, bonded by our love not just of photography, but of all-things Leica photography — the history and legacy, the craftsmanship, the modern-day advances. And of course, the photographic image. Members join such iconic figures as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Man Ray, Alfred Eisenstadt, Queen Elizabeth, Diane Arbus and dozens more who captured moments that captivated the world, each with a Leica. No camera or precision instrument in history has received such universal recognition. Purchase of a Leica camera includes a complimentary, one-year LSI membership. The sole requirement for entry is a genuine interest in Leica products. Founded as the Leica Historical Society of America (LHSA), the non-profit changed its name to reflect our balance of international reach, heritage and modern-day relevance.
