Leitz Microscope Camera
The Leitz Microscope Camera is a specialist Leitz accessory designed for photomicrography rather than general handheld use. It belongs to the long line of Leitz scientific imaging equipment produced alongside the firm's better-known 35mm rangefinder system.
Sales data for this item is thin: the two recorded UK auction hammer results both sold for £800, giving a single reference point rather than a true range. On that basis, a complete and working example sells for around £800 at saleroom level in 2026, though the small sample size means the value of any given unit can vary materially with condition, completeness and which microscope it is intended to mate with.
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.
