Leica Kyoto Store

If you're a Leica fan, please take time to check this store out.

They carry rare cameras such as the Leica M edition 60.

The layout of the store perfectly matches the outdoor Kyoto scene. Inconspicuous entrance with a wooden sliding door. Very friendly staff members.

Ms. Tsukabe, who was working at the time didn't make me feel comfortable. She didn't seem very friendly. I said hello to her first and she kept her distance, eyeing me. She seemed friendly to other Japanese customers who came by but really not friendly to us.

The men were very polite. Mr. Nigata helped us with the purchase of a Yosemite mountain strap for our M6. He took great care in putting a screen protector on our M10 for us, thank you very much for your time and professionalism.

They have a beautiful gallery on the second floor with large wooden tables to sit and a room in the back that is styled in a Japanese fashion.

Check out the tatami room on the 1st floor, it looks like a studio set up.

Uniquely designed store with high end quality camera gear.

They offer workshops too! I wish I could be here for their workshop in September with Matt Stuart.

They also have an elevator, wheelchair accessible entrance.

Nice architecture and interior design

This Leica store has embraced the Kyoto architecture beautifully. The first floor is the store with the second floor being a gallery that is absolutely worth seeing.

Perfectly located in the beautiful Gion district built in a very traditional Japanese design. Very friendly and helpful staff.
In Leica Store Kyoto you will find a few products that are only available in this Leica Store. There is a small but beautiful gallery on the second floor.

Small store kind of tucked away on the main strip. Amazing architecture!

My parents and I joined the 2 day photo tour with Leica Store Kyoto. The tour was coordinated by Koichi Nishimura of Leica Store Kyoto and renowned local Kyoto photographer Peter MacIntosh.

The tour was excellently coordinated. Koichi went above and beyond expectations to ensure my parents and I had an absolutely wonderful experience.

Naosuke-san the store manager and Koichi-san made us feel extremely welcome to the store. Naosuke-san if you are reading this, please ensure Koichi stays at Leica Store Kyoto! He is an extremely valuable team member of your store.

Thank you Leica Store Kyoto for the wonderful memories and a two day tour of Kyoto I will remember for a long long time.

I have a Leica 240 M-Type and a Nocti. Wanted to check out some accessories. I must say, this is easily one of the most coolest looking Leica shops I've ever visited. Very courteous representatives. They were extremely patient and polite even when I told them I was not going to buy anything. They knew their technical details very well. Will recommend this to all.

Must visit. Traditional exterior in the heart of Gion - a stone’s throw from Gion corner. Inside is an clean, simple, and elegantly furnished store with Japanese aesthetics to showcase cameras, lenses, and accessories. Very helpful and courteous staff. The bonus is the photo exhibition area upstairs.

Must see for the Leica photographer. Up market camera store in a renovated building that keeps the style of the Kyoto Gion area. Also sells some Kyoto specific Leica branded goodies. Has a small gallery upstairs

Great exhibition place! Like its decorate and the quality they created! Simple and nice exotic, very Kyoto style!

I broke my camera on holiday and they were very helpful. Besides that this is simply the most elegant Leica store I ever visited.

Best Leica design shop in the world, have many gear in stock.

I like this store. Very unique!

Almost a museum looks great.

Nice Leica store with a touch of Japanese style.

Its a Leica store. One of the coolest looking ever.
