Leitz MDa MOT
The Leitz MDa MOT is a 35mm rangefinder-style body produced by Leitz as a specialised, motorised variant of the scaleless MDa, intended for technical and scientific photography rather than general use. Without a viewfinder or rangefinder, it was sold as a film transport platform compatible with motor drive equipment.
Public UK auction data for the MDa MOT is extremely thin: the only recorded hammer result on file is a single 2007 sale at £7,000, reflecting the wholesale saleroom level before commission. With essentially one data point, today's market value is difficult to pin down, and any current price would depend heavily on completeness, condition and whether the matching motor unit is included.
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.
