What it is

{"overview":"The Leitz M4-P is a 35mm mechanical rangefinder camera introduced in 1981 and produced in Midland, Ontario, Canada. Look for dents to the top plate and brassing around the strap lugs, and verify the film advance and rewind run smoothly. Mechanical service is still offered by Leica and by independent specialists, and most parts remain obtainable, though rangefinder calibration is the most common workshop job.","specs":"35mm film rangefinder with Leica M bayonet mount, mechanical cloth focal-plane shutter, and a 0.72x viewfinder carrying six framelines (28, 35, 50, 75, 90, 135mm).

Versions and how to tell them apart

Questions

Why does the M4-P value vary so much?

Condition is the main driver: cosmetic wear, rangefinder accuracy and shutter timing all affect what a buyer will pay, and a body needing service sells well below a clean, recently-calibrated example.
