What it is

{"overview":"The Leica Minilux is a 35mm compact film camera introduced in 1995, fitted with a fixed Leica Summarit 40mm f\/2.4 lens and housed in a titanium-finished body. In today's market the Minilux is worth noticeably more than it was five or six years ago, and clean, fully working examples sell for prices at the upper end of that band while cameras with the well-known electronic fault sell for considerably less.","buying_guide":"The most important thing to check is the LCD and shutter release — the Minilux is known for an \"E02\" error where the camera locks up, and a failed example has very limited value because service parts are scarce.

Questions

What affects the price of a Leica Minilux?

Condition of the titanium finish, a clean fault-free LCD, and confirmed working autofocus are the main factors; the "E02" electronic fault is the single biggest value killer.
