What it is
{"overview":"The Leica M7 is a 35mm rangefinder camera introduced in 2002 and the first M-series body to offer aperture-priority automatic exposure through an electronically controlled metal-bladed shutter. As of 2026, condition of the electronics, shutter calibration and completeness of original packaging continue to determine where an individual M7 sells within that range.","buying_guide":"Check that the electronic shutter fires accurately at all speeds and that the LED readout in the viewfinder illuminates correctly, as main-board faults are the principal risk on this model. Inspect rangefinder patch contrast and vertical alignment, frame-line selection and the film advance for smoothness.

Questions
Why do special-edition M7 values vary so much?
Editions such as the Titanium 50th Anniversary three-lens kit, Edition Hermès and Betriebskamera were produced in small numbers, so condition, completeness and provenance can swing their value by several thousand pounds.
