The Leica Freedom Train, Once More


A very brief video about the Leica Freedom Train, which helped dozens or even hundreds of Jews escape Nazi Germany.  The Leitz family risked everything to save these people.  In their honor, I recently bought a Leica D-Lux 4 camera.  While it's actually made by Panasonic, the lens is by Leica, and I'm very pleased with it overall.  Maybe someday I'll replace it with a Leica M9 or at least an X1.
