The Leitz 560mm f/5.6 Telyt is a long-focus telephoto lens from the Telyt family, designed for distant subjects such as wildlife and sports. It was produced in two mount configurations: a Visoflex screw-fit version intended for use with Leica reflex housings on rangefinder bodies, and a later Leica R bayonet version for Leicaflex and R-series SLRs.

Hammer prices at UK auction for the 560mm f/5.6 Telyt are limited in our records, with a single tracked sale in August 2023 fetching £188 at saleroom level. As of today in 2026, that figure represents a wholesale data point rather than a retail asking price, and condition, completeness of the focusing mount, and whether the lens is the Visoflex or R-mount variant will all influence what a clean copy sells for. With only one verified sale, the worth of this lens at auction is best treated as indicative rather than a firm market value.
