Leitz CM Zoom
The Leitz CM Zoom is a compact 35mm film camera fitted with a fixed zoom lens, sitting in the upper end of Leitz's late-era compact line-up alongside the fixed-lens CM. It was aimed at buyers wanting Leitz build quality in a pocketable everyday-carry format rather than an interchangeable-lens system.
Auction data for the CM Zoom is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result from April 2024 came in at £750, and that figure is the only firm reference point for what the camera is currently worth. Because that price is a wholesale auction-hammer level rather than a dealer asking price, retail examples in 2026 typically sell for more, and condition, completeness of box and papers, and cosmetic wear all move the value materially.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
