What it is
{"overview":"The Leitz MP 2 is a 35mm rangefinder camera, a rare variant within the Leica M-series produced in very limited numbers during the late 1950s. Given that scarcity, what an MP 2 sells for in today's market is driven almost entirely by provenance, originality and condition rather than by any standard price band, and confirmed examples appearing at auction remain exceptional events.","buying_guide":"Because the MP 2 is one of the rarest Leitz rangefinders, authentication is the single most important step before any purchase — serial numbers, engravings and internal components should be checked against documented references, ideally with a Leica specialist.

Questions
Why is the MP 2's price so high compared with other Leica rangefinders?
The MP 2 was produced in very small numbers, and that scarcity — combined with its place in the professional M-series lineage — is the main reason its value sits well above standard M-series bodies.
