The thieves obviously planned this well to be able to take such a large amount of equipment and they probably knew exactly what they were looking for.

If anybody offers you any cheap Leica equipment in the UK (and possibly elsewhere in the world over the coming weeks) or you see something for sale online, ask to see serial numbers and check against the list above or on the Ffordes Facebook page. And if there’s anything suspicious, please contact Inverness police on 01463 228452, quoting Police Incident Number: NN10337/18.

Ffordes Photographic Ltd opened for business in May 1960 in Basildon, Essex. The business was moved to Beauly in Scotland in 2001, twelve miles west of Inverness.
