Leitz M7 0.58 black
The Leitz M7 0.58 black is a 35mm rangefinder camera, part of Leica's M-series, fitted with the wider 0.58x viewfinder magnification intended to suit shorter focal lengths and spectacle wearers. The black-finish body sits within the M7 line, which introduced electronically-timed shutter speeds with aperture-priority automation to the M rangefinder platform.
Sales data for the M7 0.58 black is thin: only one UK auction hammer result is recorded, a £3,625 sale in November 2022, so any sense of today's price in 2026 should be treated as indicative rather than settled. At saleroom level — where prices reflect wholesale hammer figures rather than dealer retail — this single data point suggests the 0.58 black variant sells for a figure in the mid four-figure range, but a wider price band cannot be drawn from one record.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Leitz M7 0.58 black worth today?
Auction evidence is limited to a single UK hammer result of £3,625 from late 2022, so a current value can only be sketched from that one figure rather than a established range.
How much does a Leica M7 0.58 black sell for at UK auction?
The one recorded UK auction sale price for this variant is £3,625, achieved in November 2022 at hammer.
Why does the 0.58x viewfinder version matter to value?
The 0.58x finder is the widest of the M7 viewfinder options and is sought by users of 28mm and 35mm lenses or those wearing glasses, which can support price relative to more common magnifications.
